WKATitRHHTONK) Nut trees are worthy the attention of nil farmers and In many cases they will be found profitable to the grower and eafy to get started. lilack walnut, chestnut, hickory and butter nut trees are propagated by gathering the nuts in th fall before they have become dry and planting In April In nicely prepared ground as deep as the diameter of the nut, either where they are to grow or In a row In the garden In the latter case they should be taken up the first winter and burled beyond the power of the frost. If one half of the top roots are pruned before setting the young trees the lateral roots will put forth a more vigorous growth and the trees are more sure to make a good, healthy growth. It is to be hoped that these kind of trees will receive more attention In the future than they have In the past as there are few farms that do not have fence rows or waste Iand that could be made useful by plant Ing to some variety of nut-bearing trees.
