CARPATHIAN (ENGLISH EALNUT) \ 
Tho Carpathian Inglish Walnut was discoverod many yoars ago by a nission- a3 
ary R.ve Paul Crath in the Carpathian mountains in North Poland. He se — 
large*nunbers of seed nuts fron the best strains to the United States, ‘aE 
which were distributed through the Wisconsin Horticultural Society. &, a 
These nuts wore planted at many places and have cano into bearing and 4% 
have been tested as to hardyness, fruitfulness and qualitye 
The best ones from these tests have been propagated by Nurserymen by eraft- 
ing them on black walnut stocks, which makes the best trees and are the 
oni varictics that should be boughs and. planted, as these are the true 
reproducers of the best selected strainse 
There are partics selling Carpathian trcoes at a cheaper price produced 
only by planting secd nuts (known as secdlings)e Seedlings do not ro 
produce the parent and will be inferior ond most likely result in a disa- 
ppointnent. 
The grafted and selected strains I have propogated and tested have proven 
practically as hardy as the black walmut and have proven to be good regular 
boarcrs of very high quality mtse The treos are rapid growers, young , 
boarors and has oa light gray smooth barks
