Restoring Black Walnut.

In an effort to restore the black wal
nut 16O bushels Of seed have recently
been planted at Mont Alto. Pa. and
next spring 1t is expected that fully
100000 seedlings will be available for
replanting in groves In various parts
Of the state.
It is not difficult to start walnut
plantation, says the American For.
estry Magazine, and It cites the case
Of an Indian farmer in the Far West.
who. few years ago, after an excep.
tionally heavy seed year. drove his
wagon down to the Wabash bottoms
and shoveled It full Of nuts and litter.
Then going up to his feld he spread
the nuts from the tall of the cart on
the frozen ground In the same way

the frost was coming out Of the
