thetic satisfaction • in my boyhood
days. Gathering butternuts was, a.
ntirely-different-from-picki-ng-
beechnuts: The branches of the.
trees were fewer and the nuts more,'
visible. You could see quite well
when the -nuts were all off the trees:
'They were large and; easily picked
off the ground. It took a long tine
to fill even a small basket with
;beechnuts.. It took only a few
minutes to fill a'basket from the
butternut trees.-

rees.'
• Weitook them home, removed:
the green skin covering from the -
*Side ands then :placed the , `shell
in s9rpe dry place' where it would
not deteriorate by becoming • •
mouldy. The contents: were much
like the walnuts ich we purchase
onwhthe market in our day, The •
shell.'was hard and hard to crack.
The kernel required some skill to
eictract from the shell. But it was '
good eating and we considered per
selves lucky when we faced :the •
winter with a few' baskets ofthis
nourishingand deliciaus"food`: ,
• What value the timber of these
trees had I never knew. T hey were
small trees in those days and never
became'large'. I daresay if they,
were, permitted to •grow to some
size that they might 'prove valuable
just as the walnut of today which is
amongst' our finest' wood But in
thine long.ago days folk were not
thinkingIn terms of wood 'values..
They were interested more in- those
things that were edible and which
satisfied the sense of taste. Wild "
fruits played an important role 'in"
. man's existence Wild nets were
also a delicacy to whetthe'palate.
sS'o we doff our hats :in respectful
"and pleasant rnemor es to: those
tvi`a butternut trees in that,back
