Each, 75 Walnut {Japan Sieboldi)—From the moun- tains of Northern Japan. Leaves of immense size, a charming shade of green. Nuts are produced in abundance: grown in clusters of fifteen to twenty, have a shell thicker than the English, but not as thick as the Black Walnut, much resembling Pecans. Meat is sweet, of best quality, flavor like butternut, but less oily. Tree vigorous, handsome form, bears young, and is very productive. One of the most valuable introductions of recent years. Perfectly hardy here, standing 26 de- grees below zero without injuring a bud. Val- uable as a nut and ornamental tree: should be planted in all sections. Four to five feet high, each 50 cts.: per 10, $ BLACKBERRIES. Many kinds of blackberries will succeed, not only on good fruit land, but even on the most sandy, porous soil. They require the same treatment as recommended for rasp- berries, but in field culture should be planted in rows seven feet apart and three feet distant in the rows: in garden culture plant rows five feet apart and three feet distant in the rows. The pruning should be governed by the growth of the cane and should be severe. Pinch back the canes in summer when three feet high, causing them to throw out laterals. When planting 7x3 feet apart it takes 2078 plants for an acre. When planting J x 3 feet apart it takes 2904 plants for an acre. Taylor—One of the bl
