FIGS 
Throughout the Gulf-coast country and a large part of Georgia and the Carolinas, Figs grow 
well and bear abundantly. In fact, with slight protection during winter they can be grown and will 
fruit satisfactorily far outside the region in which they are generally supposed to succeed. They 
can be grown with good results in the West Indies, Mexico, Central America, and in many parts 
of South America. 
No fruit is more valuable in the southern fruit-garden than the Fig, and in some sections a 
remunerative industry in Fig-canning has been built up. This industry is capable of still larger 
developments and worthy of more attention than it has hitherto received.
