Pecan Trees Withstand Heavy Winds and Floods. 
A view of our Nursery. Note the size and uniformity of our straight and healthy stock. 
Bass Pecan Trees are Bred-Up 
Bearing 
Bass Pecan Trees are the result of much care in planting and growing. They are produced 
from stock that is bearing. All our trees are budded or grafted. When you buy these trees 
you know their pedigree for our buds or grafts are selected from early and heavy bearing parent 
trees themselves raised in our own orchards. 
We know the type of nuts that the parent trees bear, and 
the history of each tree. Thus we can sell these trees with an 
assurance of their early and heavy bearing qualities. By actual 
comparative tests throughout the South our trees are making 
records in quantity, quality, early bearing and heavy yields. 
Our nursery is ideally located. South Mississippi is the 
mother section of the finest varieties of pecans. More fine 
varieties of pecans, now being planted, originated within 150 
miles of Lumberton, than all the world put together. Lum- 
berton, therefore, is in the HEART A this district, and vir- 
tually the heart of the entire Pecan area. 
Compare the Income from Pecans to 
the Income from Any Other Crop! 
One acre of pecans will equal twelve acres in cotton—- 
based on cotton at 10c, with a hale to the acre—both r>* 
which price and yield are high. At only 30c a pound for 
nuts, an acre of 20'year trees, each producing only 200 
pounds of nuts, and figuring on only ten trees instead of the 
usual twelve, would equal $600 per acre. Taking several 
year averages of crop prices, it would require 3 5 acres of 
corn to equal that $600 acre value of nuts, or 46 acres of 
oats, 13 acres of rice and the value of 24 average cows, or 
as many calves as from 40 head of cows. A young pecan 
tree often produces more income than a bale of cotton. 
These figures are based on averages —not on the abnormal 
prices of 1931!
