Hickory (continued) 
Owing to the fact that this tree forms 
only a tap root, and no fibrous roots, we 
recommend the planting of the small trees, 
6 to 8 inch transplants, 25 cts. each, $2.00 
per 12, $15.00 per 100; 2 to 3 ft., 75 cts. 
each, $7.50 per 12, $50.00 per 100. 
Pecans 
This species of Hickory may well rank first 
among our native nuts in value and cultural 
importance. The trees grow fast, are reason¬ 
ably precocious in development and bearing, 
and produce large crops of thin-shelled nuts 
that are full-kernelled and delicately flavored. 
These nuts are already quite a factor in com¬ 
merce, growing in importance yearly in the 
southern and middle states, where hardy Pecan 
orchards yield handsome profits. 
Pecans (Seedlings). 3 to 4 ft., 35 cts. each, 
$3-50 per 12, $25.00 per 100. 
Pecans (Named Varieties). Thin shell, 3 to 4

able at a fair price. The tree grows quite 
fast; its dark rich wood is exceedingly 
valuable. 5 to 6 ft., 75 cts. each, $7.50

Siebold’s Japan. Of the finer imported Wal¬ 
nuts. It grows with great vigor, assuming 
a handsome shape without pruning, and

way; the kernels are meaty, delicate, and

to bear when two or three years old. 3 to
