LITTLEPAGE PERSIAN WALNUT. Plant Patent No. 815. 
Crath Carpathian. Grown from seed imported from Poland and pur- 
chased from the Wisconsin Horticultural Society. Seed planted spring 
of 1935. By Gilbert L. Smith and William A. Benton. 
Size, large; shell, thin; quality, very good. 
Tree, vigorous, very hardy; leafs out early. 
Blossoms—Staminate, early; pistillate, medium early. See chart. 
This is being written during the winter of 1949-50. At this time we 
still consider Littlepage to be our best variety of the Crath Carpathian 
walnuts, although some of the other varieties are certainly close seconds. 
An eleven year old graft of Littlepage bore twelve pounds of dried nuts 
the fall of 1949.
