Bass Pecan Trees Are Budded 
or- Grafted 
P ECAN TREES have that natural tendency to revert to the way they were produced 
ages ago, and even a large pecan is almost certain to bear a tiny nut. Ordinarily, a nursery 
will plant these tiny nuts, depending upon their buds or grafts to produce the larger nuts. In 
our nursery we plant the larger mils, which cost us twenty-five times as much as the smaller 
ones. We get the proper start for our nuts, assuring quality for you. 
To produce large and profitable pecans, the young trees must be budded or grafted. Some 
prefer the budded, and others the grafted, but each method is equally as valuable and produc¬ 
tive, and we do both. We do not buy buds or grafts from unknown sources, but produce them 
ourselves from heavy bearing parents in our own orchards. Therefore, we know their history. 
We take the grafts and buds, not from prunings off nursery stock, as is often customary, but 
from branches of our own bearing trees, thereby causing us to lose thousands of pounds of 
nuts each year from our own crop. 
This $1.00 Boss tree now produces over 240 
pounds of nuts annually, with a steadily 
increasing yield. 
Early Bearers and 
HEAVY Bearers 
VEN in our nursery there are thousands 
of little trees blooming and bearing—so 
happy and so anxious to start producing. 
Since our trees are protected by guarantees, 
why take a chance of losing 5 years time by 
testing unknown or “cheap" trees ? Better 
buy fewer trees and better ones! 
It will also pay you to plant our extra 
special sizes, since they have had a better 
start and will bear much sooner.

We urge you not to wait until the last minute to 
order, as many people do, and after our better trees 
have been selected. Place an order now for ship¬ 
ment later. If you want to plant your trees on a 
holiday or week-end, we can time the shipment to 
reach you then. 
“1 have received, my order . The trees were mighty fine. 1 bought some of your pecan trees about 
three years ago and they are doing fine . In 1934 they bloomed . COVINGTON, KY.
