Pecans 
A Real Money Crop 
The Pecan has become a very important nut, particularly in the Southern States and it may be said 
that there is no other fruit or nut tree which fits so well into the general farming of this region as the 
Pecan. Cotton, Corn, Cow Peas and other farm crops can be sown to advantage among the trees when 
they are young and even until the trees have begun to bear well. The region in which the Pecans may 
be grown with a proper selection of varieties, extends from Virginia to Florida, thence west to Texas and | 
Oklahoma. As shade trees, they make handsome specimens and they are well adapted for street, road 
and yard planting.
