Share The Wealth Program of Nature—With Pecans.

We are Selling Happiness, 
Income, Independence, Peace, Old Age Ease 
O UR PECAN trees are only the means to the end. We are not seeking' to sell you 
merely some trees, but to supply what those trees may mean for you and what they 
can provide. We know by our own experience and that of thousands of our customers, 
over a period of twenty-eight years, that our pecan trees may yield for you a steady 
income, ultimate independence, retirement and happiness. And this applies not only 
to your immediate family but for future generations as well. 
How Pecans Fit In With Current Affairs 
W E HEAR a lot of talk these days about Sharing the Wealth, but no legislation is 
needed as long as there are pecans. These nuts are nuggets from Nature’s Gold 
Mine and with them you can share in her storehouse of wealth. 
Nor need you worry about an Old Age Pension, for with pecans you are assured in¬ 
dependence in your old age. 
We hear a lot these days about Soil Control. A few pecan trees will do much to 
prevent erosion. Also, planted in that gully already formed, these trees will add value 
to otherwise worthless land. 
You don’t have to worry about Unemployment Insurance when you can have 
pecan trees working for you day and night. In just a few years you may be able to retire. 
Cattle and pecans go hand in hand. 
How You Can Profit 
In This Aftermath 
of the Depression 
Y OU may have some idle land or even 
farm land which produces hardly 
enough to pay taxes. It would pay you to 
plant that land in pecans! The very minute 
the land is planted in growing trees you will 
have increased its value. Then the older the 
trees, the more valuable the land. You could 
do as we do here at Lumberton, not only 
grow pecan trees, but crops between the 
rows, along with fruits and berries, and 
have livestock grazing among the trees. 
It would even pay you to buy up cut¬ 
over or other idle land and plant it in pe¬ 
cans for resale. Land is cheap now and be¬ 
fore values increase you could make consid¬ 
erable money by following our suggestion. 
Meanwhile, an additional source of revenue. 
Your Land will Do 
Double Duty 
W HY devote a piece of land to just one 
crop ? With pecans you can put your 
land on a double shift. If you have grow¬ 
ing crops, pecan trees won’t interfere. 
Even on land just set out with pecans, 
crops can be planted between the rows. 
Peas, beans, clover and other leguminous 
crops will enrich the soil. Cotton, corn, 
sweet potatoes, watermelons and all kinds 
of truck, as well as strawberries and other 
fruits may be grown. After the trees are 
a few years old, cattle, hogs, mules, horses 
and other livestock, which is the most prof¬ 
itable type of farming, can be handled.
