Nuts.—The pecan has long been grown in the State in a small way; it flourishes in many 
localities and its culture is profitable. In addition to the four varieties above listed, other 
good varieties as yet only of local repute, will undoubtedly become prominent in the near 
future. The Japan chestnut, of comparatively recent introduction, has proved fairly well 
adapted, but hardly worthy of extensive commercial culture. The Japan walnut, of still 
more recent introduction, bears well and makes a remarkably handsome tree, but is not up 
to the standard of the best English walnuts in quality. 
Extensive Gocoanut plantations are to be found on the southern coast. Little or no 
attention has been paid to varieties.
