Nursery stock New York (State) Catalogs; Grapes Catalogs; Berries Catalogs; Fruit trees Seedlings Catalogs; Trees Seedlings Catalogs; Plants, Ornamental Catalogs. Fredonia, N. Y. 21 Walnut, Black—A lofty, mpid growing native tree. Valuable both for its nuts aud timber, which latter is very durable and largely used in the manufacture of furniture and cabinet ware. Walnut, English or Madeira—This is the large, thin shell<^d Walnuts of the fruit stores, of which immense quantities are annu- ally imported. Unlike the native walnuts, the nut drops from its shucks when ripe as readily as those of the hickory. The tree is of lofty growth, very productive, but not fully hardy north of New York city. Walnut, White or Butternut—A tiandspme native tree, valuable for shade and timber as well as its nuts. FIGS, See Price I,ist on Page 30. The fig requires protection over winter in the Northern States, which may be given by bending it down and covering it with soil on the approach of severe weather; or the bush may be tied together closely, a loose-fitting box put over it and . filled in with sawdust; or else they may be planted in tubs and wintered in cellar. They are well worth a little trouble in the way of protection. Plant in warm, dry ground some six to ten feet apart. Brown Turkey—Brownish purple, large and 1 Celestial or Sugar —Fruit small but very rich. I sweet. JUNEBERRIES. See Price I^ist on Page Russiai The dwarf juneberry resembles the swamp huckleberrj' or whortleberry in appearance and quality, but is an entirely different plant. The bush is of the size 01 the curi-ant, of easiest culture, ironclad hardiness and exceedingly prolific. Very beautiful when covered with its bloom of snowy whiteness. The fruit grows in clusters like currants, of bluish-black color. In flavor mild, rich and sub-acid. Excellent as a dessert
