BUTTERNUTS, JAPAN WALNUTS, AND HYBRIDS—33 ENTRIES
Reading edition
The butternut and Japan walnuts and hybrids between them are grouped together as they were last year although but one hybrid appeared this year. The need of a name to include these is apparent and the name butterjaps to include butternuts, Japan walnuts, and hybrids between them is used this year following out last year's suggestion. It was a very poor year for these nuts, many well known trees bearing no crop at all. The one hybrid exhibited which was sent in as a curiosity not for the purpose of being entered in the contest but it is interesting to note that it took a prize, although not a high one.
The prize winning nuts and prizes awarded are noted in the table on page 156.
Other butternuts received from: C. Delp, Morrison, Ohio. (Nut No. 4). Snyder Bros., Center Point, Ia. (Fairbanks butternut). G. G. Truman, Perrysville, Ohio. (Nuts No. 2, 3). Other Japan walnuts received from: L. H. & P. J. Jr. Berckmans, 1213 Lamar Bldg., Augusta, Ga.
