PECANS 
PECAN TREES ARE A LIFE TIME INVESMENT 
It is a beautiful sight to see thousands and thousands of papershell 
pecan trees especially in South Miss, bending- and many breaking wit! 
their heavy load o-f rich nuts. 
At least several papershell pecan trees should be planted about 
every Home Grounds . The trees are invaluable for landscaping ef¬ 
fect as well as furnishing shade for the i grounds. Trees form th 
framework for landscaping grounds around which designs of 
shrubbery walks and pools are formed. There is nothing; 
more fascinating than gathering large fine nuts land storing 
them away to be eaten and enjoyed around , the fireside on 
cold bleak days of winter. Many, many, recipes call for the 
nuts in candies, salads, cakes, etc.
