BUTTERJAPS--BUTTERNUTS, JAPAN WALNUTS, AND HYBRIDS--33 ENTRIES
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).

L. H. & P. J. Jr. Berckmans, 1213 Lamar Bldg., Augusta, Ga.
