In addition to the above, several large and small trees of the Weschcke variety are located in orchard and random locations, some having been grafted in 1926 and later.  Also, there is a sprinkling of Bridgewater variety, grafted in 1936 and later, all bearing each year.

For many years, I observed hickories and walnuts in bloom and hand-pollinated them, yet I overlooked many things I should have discovered earlier in study.  It was only after ten years of observing the Weschcke hickory, for example, that I realized the importance of proper pollinization of it.  In years when it produced only a few nuts, I had blamed seasonal factors, rains and soil conditions, but I now realize that it was due to lack of the right pollen.  In the spring of 1941, I decided to make special pollen combinations with all the hickories then in bloom.  The information I acquired in return was great reward for the work I did.
