Chester Man Reuves Chestnut Gafherfn

CHESTER - How many of
the columns readers will adj
nit that they can remember
when they enjoyed gathering
chestnuts? To those who will,
lets think back to the fun Of
rushing out on the damp and
frosty mornings in the fall to
pick up the shiny, b r 0 W n
nuts before the squirrles
could get them carried away.
Children in families or neigh
Dor children had friendly con-
tests as to who could find
the largest bag full.
Then the beautiful chestnut
trees began to die. One by
one they were being killed by
a blight. 1t has been approx
imately 80 years since wild
cheStnuts could be found in
the woodlands here. That
meant that the generation of
children growing up within
that time has never had an
opportunity to gather chest
nuts.
Glenn Russell, Sperry Rd.,
Chesterland, decided to d o.
something about it. He want
ed his grandchildren to have
an opportunity to enjoy the
fun of gathering chestnuts
just as he had when he was
a lad. About ten years ago he
planted two blight resistant
chestnut trees. His efforts
were awarded this year when
the trees yielded a S m a II
crop of the delicious brown
nuts.
The trees are growing nice
ly and will soon live up to the
oft quoted description, The
spreading chestnut tree".
Not far from the new
blight resistant trees can be
found a stump of a large ches-
tnut tree that succumed to
