Steckler Seed Co., Nursery stock Louisiana New Orleans Catalogs; Vegetables Seeds Catalogs; Flowers Seeds Catalogs; Grasses Seeds Catalogs; Fruit Catalogs. 136 J. STECKLER SEED CO., I/TD., ALMANAC AND JAPANESE WALNUTS. fuglans Japonica Cordiformis. Another variety of Japanese Frnit. the tiees of which will bear here as well as the above mentioned Chestnut. There are several trees in Louisiana which were planted six years ago and are doing excellently well. One of them bore last year a number of fine nuts. The fruit is nearly the size of the English Walnut, heart-shaped, and. although hard shelled, is very easy to open. The shell is composed of two halves and can be opened by inserting the point of a knife in the seam, and the kernel may be taken out whole. This nut is very sweet, of a finer flavor than the English Walnut and cannot be too highly recommended. The seed which we offer is of our own importation. Price, 75c. per lb. Also trees at 75 cents each. MICHEL'S EARLY STRAWBERRY. We have various sorts of soil in Louisiana, and the Strawberry suitable to and succeed- ing equally well in poor or rich land, can only be determined by practical experiment. There are but few varieties which adapt themselves to all soils and latitudes, hence the importance of planting those which experienced fruit growers have tested and found profitable. A Strawberry having all the good qualities, has not, and perhaps never will be discovered: still in choosing, it is well to purchase plants having as many good points as possible. This we claim for the Michel's Early. It is claimed to be the earliest in cultivation. It makes perfect flowers and fruit. Very prolific. Price, 6oc. per 100; $ per iooo. We consider this variety superior to the Sucker State, being earlier and more prolific. It will become the leading market sort, home and for shipping North. Have dropped the Sucker State from our list as the Michel's Ear
