PIGFORD NURSERIES, LUMBERTON, MISSISSIPPI 
PAPERSHELL PECANS 
More and more we see the need of planting papershell pecan 
trees about the home, first as a framework for the landscape, then for 
the splendid shade and best of all, for the delicious and valuable nuts. 
Personally our home would be ruined without the fine thrifty pecan 
trees. And now, as we begin gathering nuts we appreciate the trees 
more than ever. 
Every home should have two or more trees. Every farm should 
have a pecan orchard of 20 to 100 trees depending upon the size farm. 
The money brought in by the nuts helps the farmer to diversify and often pays the 
taxes on the entire farm. 
Our trees are either budded or grafted on strong thrifty root stock. We carefully 
select our wood from our best bearing trees therefore know just how fine our trees are. 
We have thousands of extra choice trees in our pecan nursery now and we are 
sure you can not find any better, anywhere, at any price. 
By all means buy your trees direct from a reliable Nurseryman, freshly dug and 
properly packed so roots never dry out. We take all necessary precaution to grow 
and sell only best stock, handled with best possible care so that every tree should give 
entire satisfaction. 
We handle only the two best varieties, viz, Stuart and Success because we know 
they ARE the two best for all purposes and section of country.

Set your orchard this season. Prices 
for good fruit and nut trees are in line 
with other agricultural products.
