D ear Sirs 
In response to your valued inquiry for Grafted Nut Treesy I am enclosing 
my Price List and other information regarding these trees. 
Grafted Black Walnut trees are among our fastest growers, as well as the 
youngest to come into bearing among edible treo crops, amy many varicties 
start to bear as early as the second and third year after plantings It 
is always best to plant several varicties for good pollonation. those 
troces are among our hardicst troes and aro adaptable to a very wide rangee 
Only grafted and testod Carpathian (English W almt) should bc ordered. 
Many of these offered by difforont partics at a cheapor price aro only 
scodlings and thorefore is a gamblo and will ofton result in disappointe- 
monte 
These named improved varictics havo boon discovorod by differont poople 
in difforent parts of the Unitod Statos and have proved to havo outstand~ 
ing morits as comparod with our native or wild ones. Thoy are young 
boaring, oexcollent crackors, having high kornel porcontage with swect 
ané light colored kernols of suporior paneer Thoy arc also among 
our longest lived troese Thoy produco an amal crop of ono of mans? 
best foods, soaled in a tight packago that nover spoils and with novor 
a worm in the mtse 
Valuc of nut moats in fips dict as givon by Dr. John Harvoy Kellogg, of 
Battlo Crock, Michigan aro as follows: l# of Black Walmt meats is equal 
to Ut of Boof: Cat oe: Ribs; 5a Yoal; Yd Matton; 3# Ham: 10 Chicken 
Broilers; 1344 Oystors; 57% Eggs and gid Milk. 
My Nut Troos are propagated, sold, carcfully hand dug, and packed for 
shipmont by mysclf. Thoy have a strong root systom and havc provod 
to transplant vory satisfactorily. JI am vory particular in obtaining 
my graft wood, to bo suro thoy aro truo to namo. 
Mut tmoo Mirsorios aro fow and the domand for troos is growing 7 leaps 
ana bounas, and in tho past I have shippod Nut Troocs to all parts of the 
United Statos, without ON complaint, but considorablo ropoat orders and 
complimontary lottors, as shown on tho rovorse sides 
My suggestion is that if you aro in tho market for Nut Trocs, got your 
ordor booked as soon as possiblo whilo tho varictics and sizos are still 
to be had» Later you will have loss to choose from, as woll as complotoly 
sold cut, resulting in ono yoar*s time lost, which will novor roturn. 
Yours vory truly,
