The Pecan and Its Culture 
By H. HAROLD HUME 
Pecans are rapidly becoming one of the most important orchard trees 
in the South. In fact, for general planting they are entitled to first place 
because of their peculiar adaptability to many conditions and locations, 
d'he merits of this valuable nut are being recognized as never before, and 
the crop has gained a firm place in the markets of the country. To supply 
reliable information on Pecan-growing, this uj)-to-date work, touching 
every cultural detail, has been prepared after many years’ careful study 
of the industry. The book is thoroughly practical and contains the 
information needed by every grower of Pecans. Third edition, 195 pages, 
cloth-bound; price S3, postj^id.

Japan Walnut. In the develop¬ 
ment of the nut industry, the Japan 
Walnut is well worthy of a place in 
every planting, and no home orchard 
should be without a few trees. They 
should be planted on well-drained 
land—a sandy or clay loam with a clay 
foundation is well adapted. The tree 
is a vigorous grower, and comes into 
bearing early. In habit of growth it 
is low and spreading, reaching a height 
of 15 or 20 feet, with a spread of 
branch of about the same distance. It 
makes a beautiful lawn or shade tree. The leaves arc large and handsome. The nuts are borne 
in clusters of fifteen to twenty. They have rather thick shells, with sweet, i)lump kernels of very 
fine quality. This Walnut may be grown on well-drained lands over a wide range of territory. 
It cannot be successfully grown on poorly drained soils, and such locations shoukl be avoided when 
planting it. It may be grown as far north as New York state.
