Nut Trees for Shade and Profit 
These trees have two things to recommend them: They give excellent shade 
on the home grounds, and their yearly crop of nuts possesses a genuine cash 
value. Plant pecan or walnut trees on your grounds or along the roadside; 
set them in the pasture-lot, or make a shady lane from barn to fields. In a 
few years they will bear abundant crops of nuts, which the children will be 
glad to have during the long winter evenings.
