Lots of black walnut here. Here's something I just made in my shop from
black walnut:

If you plant black walnut in open ground, it will branch not very far from
the ground making it less than perfect furniture or veneer wood. If you
interplant one for one with ash trees, it forces the walnut to grow a long
straight
trunk before branching and gives a much more valuable log ...... in fifty to
seventy years.
