Bass Pecan Trees are 
Early Bearing and Heavy Bearing 
Bred Up From Known Bearing Parents! 
N OW listen to these superlatives but each one is true. The Bass pecan trees will live 
better, grow faster, bear earlier, bear bigger and finer pecans, bear more heavily, 
bring more money and sell more quickly than other nuts, not as good, and will prove to 
be the cheapest in the end, all because they are the finest trees. 
We, ourselves, have one among the largest groves in the entire country and 
know exactly what our own trees will do. From these known bearing parents we breed 
up our seedlings by taking buds and grafts from our early and heavy-bearing trees. 
Many nurserymen take their buds and grafts from young nursery trees that have 
never borne, so they do not know just what kind of parent tree they are from. But 
with us, each tree from which we get our buds and grafts has a fine bearing record. 
When you buy Bass trees you get pedigreed trees, so to speak! 
And Here s Another Result of our superlative Trees: 
“I am more than satisfied with the trees I bought from you six and seven years 
ago. Every one has proved true to name, and I have gathered quite a few of them. They 
are nicer and larger than any around this country anywhere. Some of them with the hull 
on them were larger than the average hen egg. I sold some of my Stuart pecans for 
35c per pound and will not have enough to supply the demand .”—Luke Hopkins, Bre- 
mond, Texas, Oct. 28, 1935.

“The five acres planted in your pecans in 1930 exceeded my expectations. We got pecans 
the second yean'. Some of the trees are higher than my house.”
