Tho Carpathian Inglish Walmt was discovorod many yoars ago by oa mission» 
ary R:ve Paul Crath in the Carpathian nountains in North Poland. He sent 
‘large“numbers of seed nuts from the best strains to tht hited States, 
. which were distributed through the Wisconsin Horticul wiral Socletyes 
These nuts wore planted at mony places and have canc into bearing and 
have been tested as to hardynesss fruitfulness and qualitye 
The best ones fron these tosts have been propagatod by Nurserymen by grafte 
ing them on black walnut stocks, which nakes the best trees and are the 
only varictios that should be bought and planted, as theso are tho true 
reproducers of the best solocted strainse cn ‘ 
There are partics solling Carpathian troes at o cheaper prico produced 
-anly by planting secd mts (known as secdlings). Scodlings do not ro- 
produce the parent and will bo inferior ond most likely rosult in a disa- 
ppointmonte 
The graftod and selected strains I have propogated and tested have proven 
practicolly as hardy as the black walmit and have provon to be good regular 
bearors of very high. quality. mtse The treos are rapid growors, young | 
boarore and has a light gray smooth barke
