FIGS 
Figs thrive in all portions of the Cotton Belt of the South as 
in no other section of the world; trees may be found growing 
in door-yards, near trash piles, in chicken runs, and near build¬ 
ings in a most luxuriant manner and producing enormous 
crops. 
No home pantry is complete without canned and preserved 
Figs for Winter use. Figs come into bearing very early. With 
proper spraying to hold leaves on, fruit may be had from May 
to November. 
They require good fertilization, and do best on firm hard 
ground, kept free from all other growth. 
Commercial Fig Growing is extending throughout the South. 
They can be planted 10 to 18 feet apart and the yield is heavy, 
thousands of pounds of fruit being produced per acre. 
BROWN TURKEY. Probably the best fig for home use. Med¬ 
ium size, purplish brown, very sweet, highly flavored, and fine 
for eating fresh, with cream, or canned. 
MAGNOLIA. Very large, greenish amber, very productive, but 
not quite so hardy as Brown Turkey. This is the Fig grown so 
extensively in South Texas for canning and shipping. A very 
sweet, luscious fig. 
CELESTIAL. Sometimes called Little Sugar Fig; the sweetest 
of all varieties. Ripens in midseason.

A NEW FIG 
TEXAS EVERBEARING 
This is an astounding new introduction. The facts we set out 
below are from observation and reliable information, which we 
checked for correctness. This fig was brought to Mississippi 
a number of years ago by a Frenchman from the Old Country. 
Several years later he moved to Tarrant County, Texas, about 
15 miles from Ft. Worth. He grew it for a number of years 
around his place, but its introduction to the Nursery trade was 
accomplished by Mr. Arch Cannon, of Euless, Texas. 
Facts About This Fig: 
(1) It is hardier than any other variety known, and may be 
grown 100 miles fui’ther north than any other variety. 
(2) It is very large, as large as hen eggs. 
(3) Quality is unsurpassed. 
(4) Wonderfully productive. The owner of a one acre or¬ 
chard in Tarrant county in the summer of 1937 sold more than 
$1000,00 worth of figs from his one acre. 
(5) Bears early. I saw cuttings that were planted in tha 
nursery row in April with 18 well developed figs in August. 
(6) Ships well, and holds up well.

ment, but as soon as there is enough of the fruit on the market

Persimmon is known on the market, it finds ready sale. 
TANE NASHI. The best known and most popular variety; 
large, conical, pointed. Early bearer, early ripening and pro¬ 
ductive. Seedless.
