PECANS 
A Most Profitable 
Crop for the South 
They Add Value to Your Land 
F or the thoughtful, careful farmer or orchardist, the pecan still stands at or near the 
head of the list of profitable tree crops. Many owners of pecan trees have neglected 
their trees and wondered why they have not gotten good returns, but the grower who 
intelligently cares for his grove and gives them their proper requirements finds his pecan 
trees one of the most profitable investments he ever made. 
The average farmer will still be content with growing cotton and corn, and his 
land will be worth no more after it has grown these for a hundred years. But the 
progressive farmer is looking for a crop that will increase the value of his land and 
give him larger returns each year that the farm is worked. 
We are in our fiftieth year as growers of pecan nuts and pecan nursery stock. 
We have had wide experience in every phase of the industry. The knowledge gained 
from this experience is available to our customers. There is not sufficient space in 
this book to include it all here, but much information is available which we will be 
glad to send you free on request. 
A Few Dollars Invested Now 
May Mean Independence Later 
We know of no other thing offering such rich rewards, for which the initial investment 
is smaller. A comparatively few dollars invested now may bring you independence later. 
Do you know that right now, throughout the pecan belt, there are individual trees that 
are worth from $500 to $1,000 each? The value is REAL for it is based on a 6 per cent 
annual income on these amounts. 
Furthermore, when planted about a home, they add beauty for the present, and en¬ 
hance the selling price for the future.
