SAFE —WINTERING ALL FALL ORDERED NUT TREES— 
When our trees arrive in October they will be wax coated. Remove 
the paper and lay them down flat in your garden. Shovel soil over 
the roots to cover. When snowy weather starts, throw a bushel of 
tree leaves over the tops and a few leaves over the soil on the 
yoot:. Pull up in early April and plant permanently. By following 
the above procedure your fall ordered Nut Trees will give you a 
much better stand than those ordered in the Spring.. The asove 
applies especially well to all Engiish walnut trees. 
THOMAS—tTree is of Pennsy]- 
vania origin. It is the most rapid 
erower of them all. Nuts are ler- 
eer than any other propogated 
black walnut. Yet they are remar- 
kably thin shelled and the light 
colored kernels come out nicely. 
Thomas is a heavy bearing vari- 
ety, ideal for the commerical pro- 
ducer, 
IMPROVED BLACK WALNUTS: All varieties of black walnut 
listed by us are bearers of the highest quality nuts. These vari- 
eties have been tested and found perfectly hardy and practically 
immune to disease. 
“CLIMAX BLACK WALNUT—A variety of black Walnut that 
originated near Climax, Michigan. Very much like Thomas in ap- 
pearance of nut. Though hardier. It cracks well and starts out in 
the spring with a sort of purple foilage that is bound to attract 
attention.
