HARDY NUT TREES 
PAPER SHELLED CARPATHIAN 
ENGLISH WALNUT 
THESE TREES ARE GROWN FOR US IN 
NORTHERN MICHIGAN 
This Hardy tree is growing in many parts of the 
world; the hardiest is found in Russia, Poland and Nor- 
thern Carpathian mountains where the winter temper- 
ature at times drops to more than 40 degrees below zero. 
It was from these countries that the original stock 
was brought to Canada about 20 years ago, and since 
then has been propagated in Michigan. 
The trees have a gray 
colored skin, leaves are 
large, glossy and nicely 
scented. Nuts vary in 
size from that of the 
California English wal- 
nut ‘to twice this size. 
Nuts fall free of hull. The 
shell is thin and breaks 
very easy. In Canada this 
variety is a heavy pro- 
ducer, grows’ rapidly, 
bears at an early age.

\ CHINESE BLIGHT RESISTANT 
CHESTNUT 
GROWING YOUR OWN LARGE, SWEET CHEST- 
NUTS IS A PLEASURE 
A number of years ago the Chestnut blight destroyed 
the Native American Chestnuts. The U. S. Dept. of 
Agriculture—after many tests—introduced a type of 
Chinese Chestnut not only blight-resistant, but an early- 
bearer of large, good quality nuts. Trees start bearing 
when very young, often in 2 to 5 years, and succeed 
anywhere the American Sweet Chestnut formerly grew; 
in fact they can be grown over a wider area and may 
be grown wherever Peaches thrive. We recommend 
planting in a well-drained, sunny location. Plant the 
Chinese Chestnut for attractive home ground shade trees 
and also reap a harvest cf delicious, sweet nuts.
