21516I think that we have any amount of evidence that Chinese chestnuts can be rooted from cuttings, but can trees grow on from rooting cuttings?
21516If your scion is not the same size it might over lap or... how do you handle that?
21516In pinching back, do you mean that the actual growth rate is changed, or that debudding will suppress the entire tree?
21516In top working a seedling tree?
21516Is there anything further to take up under the heading of helping our secretary?
21516MEMBER: After you have produced all these grafts, what are you going to do with them?
21516MEMBER: Did they bear after you grafted them?
21516MEMBER: Did you ever try not to?
21516MEMBER: Did you say Northern Peninsula of Michigan?
21516MEMBER: Did you try layering?
21516MEMBER: Do I understand that most any place along that tree trunk there are adventitious buds?
21516MEMBER: Do I understand the common spittle bug is an enemy to nut trees?
21516MEMBER: Do you get away from the bad effects of BHC by using lindane?
21516MEMBER: Do you recommend two year wood for budding?
21516MEMBER: Do you think the figure could be propagated by asexual propagation?
21516MEMBER: Do you wax the graft?
21516MEMBER: Does the Chinese chestnut seed have a rest period?
21516MEMBER: Has anyone tried to deep freeze?
21516MEMBER: Have you had any success in bench grafting of the chestnuts?
21516MEMBER: He uses a speed sprayer, does n''t he?
21516MEMBER: How about Niblack?
21516MEMBER: How about eating quality?
21516MEMBER: How about mound layering?
21516MEMBER: How does that compare in Missouri?
21516MEMBER: How far removed from other varieties do they have to be?
21516MEMBER: Is it thought to be acquired or hereditary?
21516MEMBER: Is that 7916 a pretty good sized nut?
21516MEMBER: May I ask the time of the year when you pruned?
21516MEMBER: What are the stumpage prices?
21516MEMBER: What do you disinfect those cuts with?
21516MEMBER: What do you mean by membership-- members or officers?
21516MEMBER: What factors suppress them?
21516MEMBER: What percent of failures do you expect on a hundred?
21516MEMBER: What time do you recommend budding?
21516MEMBER: Where would it rank in the ability to bear?
21516MEMBER: Would n''t it do better if you dipped the top in paraffin or something?
21516MEMBER: Would you explain that?
21516MEMBER: Your lattitude is about the same as Evansville?
21516MR. CHANDLER: Did you see these big trees where I told you about having the crop?
21516MR. CORSAN: Would you call the Chinese chestnut a second?
21516MR. CRAIG: Curly walnut would be worth more?
21516MR. DAVIDSON: In connection with this rapid growth, is there any difference in the quality of the wood?
21516MR. MAGILL: Do you find your bearing earlier?
21516MR. MAGILL: Do you plant seedlings where you want them to grow and then later top work?
21516MR. MAGILL: In Iowa, out there, what varieties are making good?
21516MR. O''ROURKE: Are there any other questions pertaining to seeds?
21516MR. O''ROURKE: Is it not a fact that... seed has no true rest period as we know it with trees?
21516MR. O''ROURKE: Shall we move to vegetative propagation and consider cuttings first?
21516MR. SHERMAN: What is the best method of treating the chestnut seeds in the fall to prevent the development of weevils?
21516May I have those slides?
21516Shall we have a motion?
21516The one thing you want to know is,"how much is it worth?"
21516Though you say pruning dwarfs the tree, actually the root is still there and given enough time will not the tree recover?
21516What are the processes to check that?
21516What can be easier than growing a timber tree in the woodlands?
21516What factors would you take into consideration in trying to make a decision?
21516What is your best offer for them?"
21516What is your observation on these northern pecans?
21516When the wood matures, will it have the same value for furniture and so on as the slower growing ones?
21516Which one shall we take up first?
21516Who grows most of the Chinese chestnuts, germinates most of the seed?
21516Why not plant the hicans?
21516Will the Illinois people rise, both members and visitors?
21516Will the members from these two states rise briefly?
21516Would they be more like the softwood?
21516[ 1] MEMBER: Are there just two broods?
19373Nutty,do we hear someone suggest?
19373Well, Lige,inquired the thrifty spouse,"Did you find out''bout that''ditto''we did n''t get?
19373Adopt resolutions?
19373And what about the labor involved in raising and harvesting the English walnut crop in question?
19373And why not?
19373Are there any remarks?
19373Are there any remarks?
19373Are you ready for the question?
19373But did the Anti- Saloon League, for example, content itself with resolutions when it wanted real results in the halls of legislation?
19373But how about the strip of land along the roadside, an aggregate waste of at least one per cent of the acreages of eastern farms?
19373CHARACTERISTICS OF THE RESISTANT TREES What now are the characteristics of these resistant trees?
19373DR. KELLOGG: Do you use the same method in transferring buds?
19373DR. KELLOGG: Dr. Morris, how old hickories may be used for grafting?
19373DR. KELLOGG: When should the scions be cut?
19373DR. MORRIS: How many members have we, Mr. President?
19373Do n''t they run very largely for Persian walnuts?
19373Do you cover the scion with paraffin or only the union?
19373Does any one have anything to present while we are waiting for the secretary, who is busy?
19373Has that been attended to?
19373How are we going to know one when we see it?
19373How shall we bring this about?
19373How then explain the undoubted discomforture that many people experience after eating nuts?
19373I said,"Why do you keep them out here?"
19373I think Mr. Bixby said,"Why do n''t you try grafting on that kind of material?"
19373IS THE DISEASE RESISTANCE HERE AN HEREDITARY CHARACTER?
19373In other words, is it worth while to plant them with that point in view?
19373Is the freeing of the acorn and its tannin and other objectionable substances a practical consideration?
19373Is there anything else that should come up at the morning session?
19373Is there anything else we want to bring up at this morning session?
19373Is there anything else you wish to ask before we leave this topic?
19373It is not quite sure of itself in many cases, and when it is not sure of itself, when it has a fear, what does it do?
19373MR. BIXBY: Can any one here tell me where seedlings of the big western shellback, Carya laciniosa, can be obtained?
19373MR. JONES: Some of your varieties are hybrids are n''t they?
19373MR. MCGLENNON: Can the secretary tell us how many members there are?
19373MR. MCGLENNON: Has there been provision made for a paper on filberts by Mr. Vollertsen?
19373MR. MCGLENNON: How many states are included in the northern association territory?
19373MR. MCGLENNON: Is this not a very good field to open up operations along that line, right here at Battle Creek?
19373MR. OLCOTT: The committee as you suggested it is Dr. Morris, Mr. J. F. Jones, Mr. Linton, Mr. McGlennon and myself?
19373MR. SIMMONDS: Has that another name?
19373MR. SIMONDS: Are they raising nuts in Michigan on pines?
19373Mr. Secretary, are there any other things that ought to come up that you think of?
19373Mr. Secretary, do you know of anything else?
19373Now what was the reason for this immense pleasure I found in working among those plants?
19373PRESIDENT REED: Are there any questions you would like to ask Mr. Simonds while he is with us, or is there any discussion?
19373PRESIDENT REED: Are you ready for the question?
19373PRESIDENT REED: Have you any suggestions as to whom you want on that committee?
19373PRESIDENT REED: How many members?
19373PRESIDENT REED: Is there any discussion?
19373PRESIDENT REED: What is the next thing on the program, Mr. Secretary?
19373PRESIDENT REED: You get better results, Mr. Jones, from waxing the entire scion?
19373QUESTION: Are pecans a variety of hickory?
19373QUESTION: Can you successfully graft a pecan on the pignut?
19373QUESTION: Do you prefer the melted paraffin to the old- fashioned way of using bees wax?
19373QUESTION: Does the hazel find its way into the market commercially?
19373QUESTION: Does the stock you graft on have any effect on the quality of the fruit?
19373QUESTION: How many grafts would be necessary on a nut tree twelve inches in diameter?
19373QUESTION: In summer grafting do you remove the leaves from scions?
19373QUESTION: Is the hazel a long lived tree?
19373QUESTION: What is the best stock to graft pecan on?
19373QUESTION: What is the best time of year?
19373Suppose we want to give them good care, what are we going to do?
19373That is, is their biological value as satisfactory as their digestibility?
19373That was your idea, Mr. Bixby, was it?
19373To prune or graft them?
19373VOICE: About what degree of heat is best for the wax?
19373VOICE: Do you use anything besides the hickory as stock for grafting on?
19373VOICE: How do you apply the hot wax?
19373VOICE: How large black walnut trees could be top worked to English walnuts?
19373VOICE: Will it be practical to plant nuts, get young plants, and then bud or graft them?
19373Was it perhaps from the commercial or financial point of view, the future income from them for fruit or when the plants reached a saleable age?
19373Was n''t there a committee on nominations for officers to be elected, this morning?
19373We then ask the next question: Are nuts adequate as far as their proteins contain these essential amino acids, and do nuts contain vitamines?
19373What did you find?"
19373What do we mean by"pignut?"
19373What is the first?
19373What is the irritating principle of the English walnut?
19373What is your pleasure?
19373What is your pleasure?
19373What then were the results of the survey?
19373Who else shall we have, for a second member?
19373Why do nut oils tend to become rancid easily and can this tendency be remedied?
19373You cut the top off did n''t you?
19373|?
19373|?
22312***** President Morris: Are there any comments upon this paper of Mr. Hales?
223121 What type of nut do you consider the"Juglans mandshurica"to be?
223123 Is it a nut of commercial or other value?
223124 How was it introduced into this country?
223125 What are the characteristics of the tree?
223126 Have you raised them yourself or can you say who has?
223127 Can you send samples or say where they can be obtained?
22312Another would say,"Is n''t this a fine thin shelled nut?"
22312Are we likely to find more species among the hickories than the ones already described?
22312Are we to raise immune chestnuts?
22312Can we expect such results in topworking our own hickories?
22312Can you tell us what stocks the Hales hickory is grafted upon?
22312Do they have to hull the Persian walnuts?
22312Doctor Deming: Are we going to have success in topworking, and by what method?
22312Doctor Deming: Did he practice spraying experiments carefully?
22312Doctor Deming: How did you know they were hybrids, by the appearance?
22312Doctor Deming: Is n''t that a most promising field for experiment, in producing blight- free varieties, and also in spraying?
22312Doctor Deming: Mr. Littlepage has had some success in budding hickory very early, have n''t you?
22312Doctor Deming: Then had we not better include the President,_ ex- officio_, on that committee?
22312Does Stuart maintain its reputation for hardiness in his locality?
22312Had you thought it out?
22312Has anyone had experience along this line?
22312Has that been worked out?
22312Have we many parallels in the field of mycology?
22312How about the bearing in that kind of a tree?
22312How do you explain that, Professor Craig?
22312How many people who eat nuts know anything about their quality?
22312I presume you meant of the southern pecans?
22312IS THERE A FUTURE FOR_ JUGLANS REGIA_ AND_ HICORIA PECAN_ IN NEW YORK AND NEW ENGLAND?
22312In connection with any disease of this sort, one naturally inquires, how are we going to recognize this disease?
22312Is it not remarkable that so little effort has been made to extend the natural range of this superb native nut northward?
22312Is n''t this a line of observation we have got to follow out in adapting pecans to northern fields?
22312Is there any discussion on this paper?
22312Is there any further discussion on this point?
22312Luther Burbank:( Does it resemble the Persian walnut--)_ No._(--or the butternut?)
22312Mr. Brown: Can anyone give me any information on grafting chestnuts?
22312Mr. Brown: What about the position of the graft?
22312Mr. Collins: Is n''t the size of the fruit increased in the case of apples?
22312Mr. Collins: Is n''t this subject one in which the Association might interest itself?
22312Mr. Collins: May I call attention to another complication?
22312Mr. Jensen: Does the plant grow more rapidly when it is grafted than on its own stock?
22312Mr. Jensen: In your grafting, what was the relationship of the rapidity of the growth of top after grafting, compared with the old stock?
22312Mr. Littlepage, will you take the chair?
22312Mr. Littlepage: Do you know the variety of hickory that it was topworked to?
22312Mr. Littlepage: Have you none of the Indiana varieties?
22312Mr. Littlepage: What is its bearing record as to quantity?
22312Mr. Littlepage: What varieties have you there?
22312Mr. Littlepage: What would you prophesy about the average seedling Persian walnut tree as to success and quality of nut?
22312Mr. Littlepage: Where were your northern grown nuts stratified?
22312Mr. Pomeroy: Did he bud on black walnut stock?
22312Mr. Pomeroy: How long should the paper sack be left?
22312Mr. Pomeroy: I want to ask if he thinks he will have any difficulty in transplanting those black walnuts seven or eight years old?
22312Mr. Reed( Washington, D. C.): But trees of Stuart are in bearing?
22312Mr. Reed: At what age did the original trees begin to bear?
22312Mr. Reed: Does the mere operation of grafting or budding influence earliness of bearing?
22312Mr. Reed: Have you ever found any individual trees in infested districts that were immune?
22312Mr. Reed: Have you seen that with other fruits, Professor Craig?
22312Mr. Reed: How is it elsewhere than in New York?
22312Mr. Reed: I would like to ask Professor Craig to what extent he would select seed for nursery purposes?
22312Mr. Reed: Is Mr. Lake''s point always true, that the stock below the point of union remains a normal hickory?
22312Mr. Reed: You have n''t seen any nuts yet?
22312Mr. Wilcox( Pennsylvania): How do you prepare your stocks for budding and grafting, in pots?
22312Mr. Wilcox: Have you prepared any stocks in pots at all?
22312Mr. Wilcox: What kind of pots do you use?
22312Now, in the midst of this disaster, what was the behavior of my experimental chestnuts of various kinds?
22312President Morris: Are we likely to have success along that line by some modification of the plan?
22312President Morris: Do you have the common hazel abundant?
22312President Morris: Does that work out logically in that way, is it a comparative matter all the time?
22312President Morris: Have the members anything to say about the Stringfellow method of transplanting hickories?
22312President Morris: How about getting callus by three months, we will say, in storage?
22312President Morris: How long do they keep them in the nurseries?
22312President Morris: Professor Lake, will you speak on any of these points?
22312President Morris: Shall we make Mr. Reed''s motion take the place of Doctor Deming''s?
22312President Morris: Shall we say that nuts for the connoisseur should not be bleached?
22312President Morris: What could be finer than your English walnuts?
22312President Morris: What has been your experience, Mr. Roper?
22312President Morris: Will that have to go as another motion or as an amendment to Doctor Deming''s?
22312Prof. E. R. Lake, Washington, D. C. 100 Discussion 102 Is There a Future for Juglans Regia and Hicoria Pecan in New York and New England?
22312Professor Collins: Does n''t there seem to be antagonism between eastern Asiatic other than Japanese and Japanese?
22312Professor Collins: Is there any antagonism between eastern Asian and Japanese?
22312Professor Collins?
22312Professor Craig: Did n''t you see his plantation of top worked hickories?
22312Professor Craig: Do you mean whip grafting?
22312Professor Craig: In growing your hickories from root cuttings, have you had any trouble from excessive sprouting?
22312Professor Craig: May I add one word?
22312Professor Craig: May I say that it seems to me there are one or two matters arising out of the Secretary''s report which are worthy of special action?
22312Professor Craig: Should not the Secretary be empowered to send a copy of those resolutions to the Commissioner of Agriculture?
22312Professor Craig: What is your minimum temperature?
22312Professor Craig: What method do you employ?
22312Professor Lake: At what time was the ringing done?
22312Professor Lake: Does that complete all the committees?
22312Professor Lake: Does that statement, that you think it does n''t make much difference about the parent of the nuts for stock, apply to walnuts?
22312Professor Lake: Have we a committee on nomenclature?
22312Professor Lake: How long did it require?
22312Professor Lake: I would like to ask if you did n''t bud or graft the best stocks in the row too?
22312Professor Lake: You do n''t know how successful the callousing has been?
22312Q 2 Does it resemble the Persian walnut or the butternut?
22312Rush: Were those buds then of the year previous?.
22312Shall we call the little one shagbark, and the big shagbark shellbark, or must we always depend upon the scientific names in classifying?
22312Shall we designate these hybrids as"shellcans,""shagcans,"or"hickcans,"after the nomenclatural methods of present day plant breeders?
22312Supposing you have a mechanical union perfected, what is the difference in the food that different species of the same genus transmit?
22312That was the Stuart, was it not?
22312The question has been asked more often than otherwise, why do we find the disease on the tops of hills away from the water?
22312What do you think about that, Professor Craig?
22312What had you in mind particularly?
22312What has been your experience, Mr. Littlepage?
22312What have the Meehans done?
22312What hickory is that?
22312What influence would the characters of the parent tree from which the seed came have on the grafted tree?
22312What is the condition of the wood of those large growths of walnuts?
22312What would you anticipate, Professor Craig?
22312Who has had experience?
22312Why would n''t those grow?
25935What does thatAmerican"see in our nuts?
25935A man said to me some time ago,"I wonder why God made the hicans the cross between the pecans and the hickory?"
25935And she said,"Why do they bear regular crops and this good tree that makes so many fine, big kernels bears every other year?"
25935Any other discussion on hickory varieties?
25935Are there any questions?
25935Are there in America no nuts?"
25935Beside the above mentioned questions I added: What is the name and address of the owner of the tree, and its location?
25935But can you plant dry seed any time during the winter?
25935Could it be the winter rest period?
25935DR. COLBY: How do you remove the hulls?
25935DR. MCKAY: Did I understand you to mention the variety Schinnerling?
25935DR. MCKAY: Will you tell us something about how you handle the nuts in your plant, how they are hulled and cracked, and so forth?
25935Did it occur here?
25935Did you have a further report, Mr. Secretary?
25935Do I hear such a motion?
25935Do I hear such a motion?
25935Do pecan seed have a rest period, and is there any difference between pecans and hickory in that respect?
25935Do we have any discussion on this proposal?
25935Do you know whether that is still there at the Jones place, that Turkish tree hazel, Mrs. Weber?
25935Does he receive more money if it contains a higher percent of kernels?
25935Does n''t the Winkler hold its catkins most years?
25935Dr. McKay?
25935Going on with the program of the evening, are you ready to show the film?
25935Has anyone any comments on hickory varieties?
25935Have you anything to say about that, Mr. O''Rourke?
25935Have you had some experience, Mr. Ferguson?
25935Have you seen it?
25935How about everything in this room?
25935How about it, Slate?
25935How does the chairman keep the squirrels from eating them?
25935How does the disease jump from one infection center to healthy trees 200 yards, 2 miles or even 100 miles away?
25935How many are growing the Wilcox?
25935How many find it a good variety?
25935How many have Davis?
25935How many pounds of the nuts the tree yielded that year?
25935How old, tall and thick the trunk of tree is?
25935I have spoken of the value of trees for the preservation of wild life, but how do trees affect the life of man and how does man affect tree life?
25935I said,"Why ca n''t we get the dirt somewhere else?
25935I said,"You mean they are going to destroy those trees?"
25935If not, let us take up Mr. Beckert''s question: When do you take scion wood of the shagbark hickory?
25935In what kind of soil does it thrive?
25935Is Dr. McKay in the room?
25935Is it a native fungus, or imported?
25935Is that due to the exceptional vigor of Rockville which apparently is a hybrid and may have hybrid vigor?
25935Is that right, Mr. Bolten?
25935Is that right?
25935Is that true, Mr. Salzer?
25935Is that your experience?
25935Is there a motion to approve these names?
25935Is there a second?
25935Is there any further business to come before this group at this time?
25935Is there anything further?
25935Is there in the nuts, leaves and bark any sign of cross- pollination?
25935Let us think for a minute, what are the things of the greatest value in this room?
25935MR, GERARDI: Big as your thumb?
25935MR. BECKERT: Are the hickory stocks potted before you graft, or are you grafting bare roots?
25935MR. CRAIG: Have you tried hickory on pecan?
25935MR. DAVIDSON: Do you know anything as to the bearing of black walnuts this year as compared to previous years?
25935MR. FERGUSON: Do you carry higher temperatures for walnuts?
25935MR. FERGUSON: What temperature do you use in the frames?
25935MR. GERARDI: How big is that Schinnerling?
25935MR. LEMKE: What do you do when you strike a day that is very humid and the nuts start getting moldy?
25935MR. MACHOVINA: After spraying for shuck maggot with DDT do you encourage the presence of mites?
25935MR. MCDANIEL: Do you have Medium Long?
25935MR. MCDANIEL: Do you have any indication that you get a better quality nut from one county or one area than you do from another?
25935MR. MCDANIEL: Have you fruited the Weschke at Beltsville?
25935MR. MCDANIEL: Is that doing well?
25935MR. MCDANIEL: What species is the Shaul, is it_ ovata_ or_ laciniosa_?
25935MR. MCDANIEL: You do n''t notice any difference, do you, between the Missouri and the Kentucky nuts?
25935MR. MURPHY: Do you pay a premium for cultivated nuts?
25935MR. O''ROURKE: Any other comment on that?
25935MR. O''ROURKE: Any other discussion on stocks that will take wet soil conditions?
25935MR. O''ROURKE: Are you familiar with Mr. Lassiter''s stock work?
25935MR. O''ROURKE: Do I understand you correctly that you do feel that the pecan must be after- ripened?
25935MR. O''ROURKE: Is that clearly understood that there will be no attempt made to delete the section on affiliation?
25935MR. O''ROURKE: Will the bitternut do better, or would the mockernut?
25935MR. O''ROURKE: You would say probably 10 days to 2 weeks before the bud scales would break?
25935MR. ROHRBACHER: On what basis do you buy black walnuts?
25935MR. SALZER: Can you tell me if the farmer is paid by the weight of the nuts, or does he receive his pay after the kernels are shelled out?
25935MR. SALZER: Which varieties will grow on fairly wet soil?
25935MR. SAWYER: How is the Ryan?
25935MR. SHESSLER: How many years are lost in this method of bench grafting compared with field grafting trees in the nursery row?
25935MR. SHESSLER: In other words, a tree grafted out in the field will have nuts on it three years sooner?
25935MR. SNYDER: Well, do n''t we have$ 3,000 in bonds?
25935MR. WALLICK: What percentage of kernels do you get?
25935MR. WHITFORD: Do you fertilize those bushes?
25935MR. WHITFORD: Do you get any improved varieties, such as Thomas, Stabler or Ohio?
25935MR. WHITFORD: What sizes and grades of kernels do you have?
25935MR. WHITFORD: Which grades bring the highest prices?
25935MRS. WEBER: Where is it located?
25935Mr. Becker, do you wish to say something about the Reed Memorial?
25935Mr. Gerardi?
25935Mr. Wilkinson, what has been your experience in germinating pecan seeds?
25935Opposed?
25935PRESIDENT MACDANIELS: Any other discussion?
25935PRESIDENT MacDANIELS: Are there further remarks?
25935PRESIDENT MacDANIELS: How about the Barnes?
25935PRESIDENT MacDANIELS: Is it your pleasure to adopt these resolutions all at once, or do you wish to separate them?
25935PRESIDENT MacDANIELS: Mr. Magill, are you all set with your program?
25935PRESIDENT MacDANIELS: Why could n''t you send some in for testing?
25935SLATE: Any evidence that the fungus is mutating to make more virulent strains?
25935SLATE: The seedlings?
25935SLATE: What is the origin of the fungus?
25935SLATE: What is the origin of the seedlings?
25935SLATE: What variety do you think is best?
25935STOKE: Does the black walnut bloom at the same time that the Persian walnut blooms?
25935STOKE: May I say just one more thing to clarify my suggestion?
25935See that tree standing right out there?"
25935The furniture, the clothing you wear, the ring on your finger, the glass in the windows, etc.?
25935The last time we raised the dues what was the effect?
25935The next paper is,"Nut Shells-- Asset or Liability?
25935Then another worry came-- could the seedlings stand the Ontario winter?
25935What are they for, if it is n''t to tide us over a hard period like this?
25935What characteristic of a black walnut, then, can be used in evaluating it?
25935What does it do with you?
25935What enemies attack it?
25935What fertilizer, or manure, has been used in the particular case, or none?
25935What have you to say about the filbert varieties?
25935What two or three would you plant?
25935What will happen to your trees after you are dead?
25935What''s been your experience with some of the varieties and what are your principal cultural problems with the filberts?
25935What, in your opinion, is the one factor that is more responsible for this alternate bearing of black walnuts?
25935Which one would you recommend?
25935Which varieties-- I presume you mean species, is that correct?--will grow on fairly wet soil?
25935Who else has a variety that is doing very well?
25935Who has some questions that they''d like to bring up?
25935Who wants to speak first?
25935Who would like to answer that?
25935Why am I on that Committee in 1952?
25935Why was I on that Committee in 1935?
25935Why was I on that Committee in 1939?
25935Will those men come here?
25935Will you come up now?
25935You remember those days, Pappy?
23656***** Mr. Littlepage, have you any report from the Committee on Incorporation?
23656***** The Chairman: Will someone put Prof. Smith''s suggestion in the form of a motion?
23656A Member: Are the leaves moist or dry?
23656A Member: Do you cultivate the ground?
23656A Member: Do you unroll this roll of cloth?
23656A Member: Do you use the same method on the Persian walnut?
23656A Member: Do you wax in addition to the paper you put on?
23656A Member: Does that work on pecans as well as hickories?
23656A Member: Does this tend to hold that in or is it all held in by the patch there?
23656A Member: Have you found that fertilizing a tree increased the percentage of tannin?
23656A Member: How do you get your excess of wax off the cloth?
23656A Member: How long do you leave on the paper bags?
23656A Member: Is n''t it a fact that you can use three and four year pecan wood just as well?
23656A Member: Is n''t that to keep the wax out of the cambium layer?
23656A Member: Mr. Sober, do you do that?
23656A Member: Was that the old Furness Grove?
23656A Member: When is this kind of grafting done?
23656A Member: You want one bud on this?
23656A member: Did you paint over the scars?
23656A member: How much blight is there around you?
23656A member: You would n''t recommend cutting back that tap- root too severely, would you?
23656Another thing, we are right up against the problem of the insect pests of these trees and who is going to take care of them along the roadside?
23656Are n''t there any expert chemists here who can tell us?
23656Budded or grafted?
23656But who is going to breed these things?
23656Can anyone tell us anything about this danger of sun- scald to the trunk?
23656Can he not see that, in keeping with all the other unknown factors, his profits must also be unknown?
23656Can it be managed successfully in proportion as apple tree parasites are managed?
23656Col. Sober: Do you find it apt to curl up in windy days-- the paper?
23656Col. Sober: What time in the season do you graft?
23656Did you ever receive the literature of one of these various concerns that has pecan or apple orchards to sell?
23656Do they look any different from the other nuts on the tree?
23656Does anyone else wish to speak on this subject?
23656Five years old?
23656Furthermore, what of the contract of these concerns?
23656Has n''t it always been private individuals who get the new varieties?
23656Have you found that?
23656I asked one nurseryman, who wanted an enormous price for one hybrid oak, why he did n''t make ten thousand of those for himself next year?
23656I said,"Will you give me these persimmons?"
23656I see Col. Sober here; ca n''t you tell us about your experience in managing the blight?
23656I think I am right in that, am I not, Mr. Pierce?
23656If you were planting on land where the water- table is low, you would leave more tap- root?
23656Is that right, Mr. Pierce?
23656Is there any chestnut blight in southern Illinois?
23656Is there anything you''d like to add to that, Mr. Littlepage?
23656It is more of an ornament than it is a commercial nut, is n''t it?
23656Let them keep grazing around?
23656May we not have chestnut orchards managed with the same degree of relative expense and the same degree of relative profit?
23656Maybe I''m mistaken but did this Government ever produce any trees?
23656Moreover, suppose suit is brought on one of these contracts and bonds?
23656Mr. Corsan: Are yours southern orchards?
23656Mr. Corsan: How about the cattle?
23656Mr. Corsan: May I ask if there is any soil food that would increase the amount of tannin?
23656Mr. Harris: Gravelly bottom?
23656Mr. Harris: What time of year do you bud them?
23656Mr. Hutt: Can you use parafine in place of beeswax?
23656Mr. Hutt: Do you notice any difference in the shapes of any of those hybrids, the nuts, when you get them matured and harvested?
23656Mr. Hutt: I would like to ask how widely you have been able to cross species?
23656Mr. Jones: Did you ever use raffia for tying your grafts?
23656Mr. Jones: The strip goes through the wax?
23656Mr. Jones: You prefer the tallow?
23656Mr. Lake: Are there any coniferous trees in that forest?
23656Mr. Lake: How about the nuts?
23656Mr. Lake: If it is a chinkapin, what is there to indicate that there is any chestnut blood in it?
23656Mr. Lake: Is n''t there a question about that?
23656Mr. Lake: One parent was a chestnut?
23656Mr. Lake: What is that new statement about roots, that it is desirable to leave them?
23656Mr. Lake: You say you are going to issue that?
23656Mr. Littlepage: What is the approximate water level below the ground?
23656Mr. Pomeroy: I want to ask the speaker what the approximate cost would be for one spraying of a tree about that size, 70 feet in height?
23656Mr. Pomeroy: Would n''t it be well to dip the cut end of the walnut scion in wax to hold the sap?
23656Mr. Reed: Do you thin them out after they get that size?
23656Mr. Reed: In about two weeks take off the wrapping; and about how much longer is it before you get a growth like that?
23656Mr. Reed: Sandy loam?
23656Mr. Reed: That one dies then?
23656Mr. Reed: What would you consider an average crop?
23656Mr. Smith: I would like to ask if Mr. Littlepage is n''t going to open up that barrel of actual facts that he has about yields?
23656Must we go on the dot or have we two days or four days or a week, in the case of hickories and walnuts?
23656Now in conclusion let me say, what is the lesson to be learned?
23656Oranges set between them?
23656Preservation of the race!--why so?
23656Prof. Smith: Are there any fine points about this trimming, other than mere wedge?
23656Prof. Smith: Do you know the origin of the seed?
23656Prof. Smith: Do you wax the tip end?
23656Prof. Smith: Do you wax this in here?
23656Prof. Smith: Have you found that all the species of hickory take grafts with equal ease?
23656Prof. Smith: Have you had any experience in fixing up a bed of scions like that and putting it in cold storage?
23656Prof. Smith: Have you its yielding record?
23656Prof. Smith: Have you used that with pecans in the North?
23656Prof. Smith: How often do you wet that sawdust?
23656Prof. Smith: I should like to ask Dr. Deming if he would give us his experience in propagating the walnut and hickory?
23656Prof. Smith: If we should dig up a tree like this and cut it off a foot and a half down, would it be all right to transplant it?
23656Prof. Smith: If you were going to transplant those for your own use where would you cut them off?
23656Prof. Smith: Is it necessary that this should be waxed cloth?
23656Prof. Smith: Over two hundred years old, then?
23656Prof. Smith: The paper bag protects the scion?
23656Prof. Smith: Was the land low or high?
23656Prof. Smith: What do you use the lamp black for, Mr. Jones?
23656Prof. Smith: What have those trees yielded?
23656Prof. Smith: What is the superiority of that over plain cleft grafting?
23656Prof. Smith: What stage of stock do you prefer?
23656Prof. Smith: When is the top cut off?
23656Professor Smith: Have you ever tried the plan of serving collations to squirrels?
23656Rush, will you kindly read the list of the names of the men you proposed to act as a Nominating Committee?
23656Second, what percentage of the oak pollen kept in cold storage a month was alive?
23656That tree is owned by Mr. Henry Hales of Ridgewood, N. J. Prof. Smith: Have they fertilized it?
23656That was done in August, using buds of the present season''s growth, and in about how many days is it that you take off the wrapping?
23656That''s an 18 or 20 inch tree, is n''t it?
23656The Chairman: Beef tallow or mutton tallow?
23656The Chairman: But you let them breathe all the while?
23656The Chairman: But, later on, cracks and squirrel scratches and all sorts of injuries would allow new spores to be carried in?
23656The Chairman: Does the shell fill down there?
23656The Chairman: Have you tried this method on the other hickories besides the pecans?
23656The Chairman: How about school children reporting on trees under their care?
23656The Chairman: How about using scion wood more than one year old?
23656The Chairman: How do you make that wax?
23656The Chairman: How do you make your wax cloth?
23656The Chairman: How far down does your wax go, Mr. Jones?
23656The Chairman: How many years?
23656The Chairman: How old is it?
23656The Chairman: I would like to ask, does it make a great deal of difference whether the bud ring is half an inch long or an inch and a quarter long?
23656The Chairman: In our locality, people would ask,"Why is that string of squirrels following that man?"
23656The Chairman: Is n''t that the poplar tree borer that always attacks the Lombardy?
23656The Chairman: Is the Connellsville fungus also_ diaporthe parasitica_?
23656The Chairman: Is there any further discussion on the matter of frauds?
23656The Chairman: Is there any further discussion?
23656The Chairman: Mr. Jones, will you give us your points now?
23656The Chairman: One reason is because it has been cut back regularly every year for scions?
23656The Chairman: That may be due to varietal differences, though, rather than specific?
23656The Chairman: The question is of changing the generic name, from_ diaporthe_, on the basis of the previously established species?
23656The Chairman: The trees are planted on this same old stump land?
23656The Chairman: Then the length of the bud is not of great importance?
23656The Chairman: What do you cover the top with?
23656The Chairman: What has been your experience with the Stringfellow method of cutting off every single root?
23656The Chairman: What is the form of the nuts?
23656The Chairman: What is your method?
23656The Chairman: What varieties?
23656The Chairman: Which way does it face?
23656The Chairman: Will Mr. Littlepage please respond to the Mayor''s kindly address of welcome?
23656The Chairman: Would those trees grow after they have been dried as much as that?
23656The Chairman: Would you carry the patch around to the other side?
23656The Chairman: You do n''t mind this arch being left up?
23656The Chairman: You took good care of yours?
23656The Chairman: You try to keep an equilibrium by cutting down the top in proportion?
23656The Chairman: You''ve got shagbark to catch fairly well, have you by this method?
23656The Secretary: And the top?
23656The Secretary: Are not those all hybrids?
23656The Secretary: Has it been settled that it is not desirable?
23656The Secretary: How did your pecans and hickories do last summer?
23656The Secretary: Is n''t it a desirable thing that the society should be incorporated?
23656The Secretary: That trees will grow as well transplanted as if they have never been transplanted?
23656These crop yielding trees?
23656Third, what is the range of time that the hybridizer has to make the pollinization?
23656Those are a good age now or perhaps a little bit older than we usually graft, are n''t they, Mr. Sober?
23656What are the facts?
23656What are we going to do about the$ 66.00?
23656What basis has any court or jury for fixing damages?
23656What does it specify?
23656What is the measure of damages?
23656What percentage of pollen grains of the white oak were alive?
23656What prospects have we for the balancing of that account?
23656Which one keeps the American quality and which one retains the coarseness of the European type?
23656Why would n''t it pay to give them portions of wheat and corn?
23656Will someone propose that we have such a committee?
23656Would it not be wise to suggest that some of these seedlings be put in odd corners?
23656Would the gentleman advise taking those up, cutting the tap- roots and planting them again?
23656Would you feel like saying that a water- table at 24 inches was neither too low nor too high?
23656Yet what are the facts?
23656Your work has been chiefly with the chestnut as a timber tree?
26013Do you see that? 26013 Do you think, in your opinion, that this would be a good peach for us to grow?
26013You are interested in nuts? 26013 )[ 34] Those who prefer the week after Labor Day? 26013 A MEMBER: Do n''t they bloom a month later than most of the others? 26013 A MEMBER: Do you come down to a pretty good point? 26013 A MEMBER: Do you think soil temperature is going to be a limiting factor? 26013 A MEMBER: How far down do they go? 26013 A MEMBER: How much area would a( 1/2-pound) can like that treat? 26013 A MEMBER: Is that a side graft you are making there? 26013 A MEMBER: The migration of nitrogen-- is there some such migration, and is it just in the case of the sawdust? 26013 A MEMBER: When were they planted? 26013 A MEMBER: Will birds or any kind of poultry eat them? 26013 A MEMBER: Would n''t it also be all right to leave that stub on to tie your sprout to so it wo n''t want to break? 26013 And Mr. Porter of Windsor, will you help Mr. Allaman on the Resolutions Committee? 26013 And how can you get it tested? 26013 And how many experiment stations or their actions have been influenced by the Northern Nut Growers Association? 26013 And what could be nicer than a butter similar to peanut butter? 26013 And who does not know the precious wood of the wild cherry? 26013 Any discussion? 26013 Any further discussion? 26013 Any objections that we have nominations from the floor? 26013 Any other business? 26013 Any other comment on the butternut? 26013 Any other discussion? 26013 Any other questions? 26013 Any questions? 26013 Any remarks? 26013 Any remarks? 26013 Anything else? 26013 Anything real tight, or how? 26013 Are there any nominations for president? 26013 Are there other resolutions anyone has from the floor? 26013 Are there reports of the committees? 26013 Are we commercial nut growers, or do we grow them for home consumption? 26013 By that I mean, does it have a good, large kernel which is well filled and bright in color, or good flavor free from any objectionable characters? 26013 Can even the exceptional farmer do it on 20 acres? 26013 Can the average farmer_ save_ that much in his lifetime? 26013 Can we never learn to begin, as Hitler began-- as the Russians are even now beginning-- with the nation''s children? 26013 Can you answer that question? 26013 Can you see that? 26013 Certainly they are spread over the region we are interested in, are n''t they? 26013 Couple of weeks? 26013 Craig 2 106 Discussion MR. FRYE: How about butternuts for pollenization? 26013 DR. ANTHONY: Before you bang it down, may I make one announcement? 26013 DR. CRANE: And how much evidence did he base his conclusion on? 26013 DR. MacDANIELS: Any discussions? 26013 DR. MacDANIELS: Any other business? 26013 DR. MacDANIELS: Anybody else have any suggestions? 26013 DR. MacDANIELS: Are there remarks? 26013 DR. MacDANIELS: Are we men, or are we mice? 26013 DR. MacDANIELS: Can you use that material as a wax? 26013 DR. MacDANIELS: Do you wish to nominate more than three and have a ballot? 26013 DR. MacDANIELS: Does this group wish to express a preference as to the last week in August or the first week in September? 26013 DR. MacDANIELS: How many growers of nut trees have this bunch disease on their property? 26013 DR. MacDANIELS: I say we have always come down to the point, here we are, where do we go from here and what do we do next? 26013 DR. MacDANIELS: No Persian walnut will be refused? 26013 DR. MacDANIELS: Should they be sent to you? 26013 DR. MacDANIELS: Suppose you have n''t got a good union? 26013 DR. MacDANIELS: These two resolutions, do you wish to accept them or adopt them together? 26013 DR. MacDANIELS: Where did you get the seed? 26013 DR. MacDANIELS: Will this include all Persian walnuts? 26013 DR. McKAY: I''d like to ask what effect low temperature has on them and how far north you think will be their limit? 26013 DR. ROHBACHER: When do you put that stock in the house? 26013 DR. ROHBACHER: You have to dig those up in the fall? 26013 Discussion MR. McDANIEL: Does this disease affect any other beetles we have in America, besides the Japanese? 26013 Discussion MR. RICK: Are they planted permanently in the can? 26013 Do any of the contest committee or members have any suggestions? 26013 Do we have a committee on contests?--of the Carpathian walnut contest? 26013 Do we have any for secretary? 26013 Do we have any old business, Mr. Secretary? 26013 Do you move to have the secretary cast a unanimous ballot? 26013 Do you put on additional wax? 26013 Do you think of any, Mr. Weber? 26013 Do you want to say a word, Dr. Colby? 26013 Do you want to say anything further on that, Mr. Chase? 26013 Does anybody have a nomination? 26013 Does anybody know what result came of it? 26013 Does anyone present know the history of this gavel? 26013 Does it have better flavor than other peach varieties?
26013Does that seem to be a reasonable thing to do?
26013Does the crop ripen evenly?
26013Dr. McKay?
26013Has anyone else come in in the meantime who has a report?
26013Have they agreed on any one variety they do n''t want to plant?
26013Have you tried the European beechnuts in your locality?
26013How About the Butternut?
26013How about its shell, percentage of shell in relation to kernel?
26013How are you to reduce the beetle crop on these places, mostly on ground you do n''t control?
26013How old is Mr. Corsan?
26013I believe that''s right, is n''t it, Mr. Adams?
26013I believe you have the beetles at your plantation at Wassaic, Mr. Smith?
26013I think this answers the oft- asked question,"Why do not my black walnuts fill as they used to?"
26013I think we should consider whether the variety will bear good crops consistently, and if it does n''t bear well-- why?
26013I thought he''d call again, but I did n''t get his name, or at least I have lost it, and what do you think he is growing in the way of nuts?
26013I want to ask Mr. Sherman, should I be thinking about receiving 10,000 entries in this contest?
26013I wonder if the Japanese walnut, through its quickness in showing the disease, might not be a safeguard to the other walnuts?
26013I. W. Short of Taunton, Massachusetts here, or does he have his paper here?
26013If so, how?
26013If the Northern Nut Growers is not the one that should do it, what kind of an organization can be effective to do it?
26013If the meeting is held the last week in August, the dormitories would be available, would they not?
26013If you can solve that-- DR. CRANE: Why did n''t you grow up to a six- foot- six guy weighing 250 pounds?
26013In this article I would like to answer briefly our most often asked question, as to which varieties do we think best from our experience with them?
26013Is it any wonder that the inquiring farmer finds them rather frustrating?
26013Is it better?
26013Is that right, Professor Slate?
26013Is the Farmer Missing Something?
26013Is the Treasurer ready with his report?
26013Is there any analogy there that would help us in anything we can do?
26013Is there any further business?
26013Is there any other business which we ought to transact at this time?
26013Is there any other discussion on this point?
26013Is there any reason why we should n''t follow some suggestion such as that, stick our necks out and go ahead?
26013Is there more comment?
26013MR. BERNATH: You mean for sprouting?
26013MR. BERST: How about corn cobs?
26013MR. CALDWELL: Can you reproduce that result?
26013MR. CALDWELL: If it does n''t produce all the while, why does n''t it?
26013MR. CALDWELL: The blue spruce are grafted by the same method?
26013MR. CALDWELL: Use this method for shagbarks the same way?
26013MR. CALDWELL: Why does n''t it produce a good nut?
26013MR. CHASE: Are there any other nominations for vice- president?
26013MR. CHASE: The question is asked, this is n''t the time of year that you would do this, is it?
26013MR. CHASE: Then, shall we exclude the Northwestern states?
26013MR. CHASE: Whitewash?
26013MR. CORSAN: Did you find a good French variety?
26013MR. CORSAN: Did you mention Turkish tree hazel?
26013MR. CORSAN: How about a dance in this hall?
26013MR. CORSAN: Mr. Bernath, would that be the right stuff to put sweet chestnuts in in the fall?
26013MR. CORSAN: Or any latex?
26013MR. CORSAN: That is the latex that congeals quickly?
26013MR. CORSAN: That''s not too damp?
26013MR. CORSAN: This is not called Scotch Tape?
26013MR. CORSAN: Why not have the former Miss Jones president again?
26013MR. CORSAN: You just put them in damp sawdust?
26013MR. CRAIG: Did he use any fertilizers?
26013MR. EMERSON: You do n''t use any wax?
26013MR. FRYE: One application is all that''s needed?
26013MR. FRYE: That sawdust, how old must it be, and how green have you used?
26013MR. H. F. STOKE: May I also say a word?
26013MR. JAY SMITH: How about anything in the street, leaves?
26013MR. KINTZEL: Black walnuts?
26013MR. KINTZEL: Do you sell them in the shell?
26013MR. KINTZEL: How long?
26013MR. KINTZEL: How many trees do you have in a planting now?
26013MR. KINTZEL: In that section?
26013MR. KINTZEL: Rubber tape?
26013MR. LOWERRE: Would the DDT kill the parasitic wasps?
26013MR. MILLER: But the same graft ca n''t be used outside without grafting wax, can it?
26013MR. McDANIEL: How about the green June beetle?
26013MR. O''ROURKE: I would like to say, are we going to wait until we test all of those varieties?
26013MR. O''ROURKE: Is there any correlation between the age of the tree and the expression of the disease?
26013MR. O''ROURKE: Why do you place the scions so that the bud is on the inside?
26013MR. O''ROURKE: Would you by any chance think it might be seed borne?
26013MR. PATAKY: Do any of the members here have shelled butternuts or hickory nuts that they would sell?
26013MR. PORTER: Do I act now, in this meeting?
26013MR. RICK: And the stock is n''t in the case until you are ready to graft?
26013MR. RICK: Do n''t you have those in rows?
26013MR. RICK: Do you keep your scions cool until you are ready to use them?
26013MR. RICK: How do you slope this?
26013MR. RICK: How many weeks, usually, before you graft, after these are put in the case?
26013MR. RICK: Is there any advantage in sloping the top?
26013MR. RICK: Is this outside or inside?
26013MR. RICK: It would be all right just to go out to the tree and cut your scions and bring them in and the next day graft?
26013MR. RICK: The scion was cut on both sides, was it, or one side?
26013MR. RICK: To prevent fungus would it be a good idea to dip them in a weak solution of Bordeaux?
26013MR. SHERMAN: How many nuts are expected?
26013MR. SHERMAN: In case of heavy rain tomorrow, what are the plans?
26013MR. SHERMAN: What temperature in the greenhouse?
26013MR. STERLING SMITH: What do you mean, Fahrenheit?
26013MR. SZEGO: When do you cut your scion wood?
26013MR. SZEGO: When do you take the tape off?
26013MR. WEBER: And the scion eventually forms its own root?
26013MR. WEBER: And you do n''t wax either the top, or anything?
26013MR. WEBER: Do you dampen it any?
26013MR. WEBER: How do you cut above the bud that you use above the graft?
26013MR. WEBER: It does n''t make any difference if you cut the rubber band that''s on it or not?
26013MR. WEBER: That is one reason for having the bud face the stock?
26013MR. WEBER: The question arises: How old is Mr. Corsan?
26013MR. WEBER: The shade?
26013MR. WEBER: What sort of a cultivator do you use?
26013MR. WEBER: What sort of shading element do you use?
26013MR. WEBER: When you make that cut of the excess understock, you do n''t even wax?
26013MR. WEBER: Why do n''t you get a Wheelmaster?
26013MR. WEBER: Will this spore powder kill other kinds of grubs that are in the sod?
26013MR. WEBER: With the bud side up?
26013May private owners of the earth''s resources not use or destroy them as they see fit?
26013Might I have a showing of hands by those who have Japanese beetle already?
26013Mr. Allaman, I believe you are president of the Pennsylvania group, are you not?
26013Mr. Allaman, will you take chairmanship for that?
26013Mr. Secretary, do we have a report of the editor?
26013Now you make sure that the scion-- MR. WEBER: You start at the top?
26013Now, then, the question is what kind of an organization?
26013Now, this brings us next to the very important consideration of how are we going to get a new good variety?
26013Now, what about it?
26013Now, why have such a thing?
26013Reports of any special committees?
26013Resolutions DR. MacDANIELS: Is the Resolutions Committee here?
26013STOKE: How deep is that effect on the soil?
26013STOKE: That''s about the same as surgical tape?
26013See how far that can stretch?
26013She will say,"Why do n''t you stop and look at that Persian walnut?
26013Should I plant Stabler, Ohio, Thomas?
26013Slate, do you have a brief report?
26013So I think some of the Northern Ohio members-- I think Mr. Smith is here, are there any other members?
26013That is: Why are we growing nuts?
26013That''s the first thing you want to find out: Is the nut itself intrinsically the type of thing you want to deal with?
26013The center of membership appears to be about Central Ohio, is that right?
26013The first thing people want to know is,"what varieties do I plant?"
26013The second is,"Where do I buy them?"
26013The time, I think, has to be left to be worked out with the authorities at Illinois, is that right?
26013Then they put it up to me or Dr. McKay, or Dr. Colby, and think that you could just name right and left, and they ask,"What varieties shall we plant?"
26013Those who would prefer a meeting date comparable to this year?
26013Was this lone tree self pollinating or receiving pollen from a tree this far away?
26013Well, then, what''s the next step that we take up?
26013What am I going to do?
26013What is it now?
26013What more do you want for a nice job ahead?
26013What?
26013When I get a letter coming in from most anywhere in the country wanting to know what variety of black walnut to plant, do you know what I tell them?
26013When they speak of the blossom, they speak of the horsechestnut, do they not?
26013Where can I get some trees?
26013Who will second the motion?
26013Why ca n''t we have quail around the farms instead of shooting them?
26013Why do n''t you stop there?"
26013Why does n''t he?
26013Why have it in Pennsylvania?
26013Why?
26013With as little investment of money and work?
26013Would anybody like to look at this?
26013Would it matter if it was flat?
26013You have a medical man here?
26013You mean before it sets up?
26013You say there are 500 trees that did nothing at all?
26013to report that committee appointment?
