WESTERN VARIETIES 
WESTERN SCHLEY. Each year I like 
the Western Schley Pecan better. Ten 
years ago I selected it as the best pecan 
of the Risien Varieties. I have done 
every thing I could to make it more popu¬ 
lar. The tree is remarkably healthy, a 
strong grower, an early and heavy bearer. 
The dark green foliage and symmetrical 
growth also make it very desirable for 
a yard tree. Burkett is a good pollina¬ 
tor for Western Schley and Western 
Schley and John Garner are good pollina¬ 
tors for Burkett. 
COMMONWEALTH. This is the latest 
variety to put on leaves and bloom of 
any variety in our orchard. This is a 
much better nut than Sq. Delight and 
should be tried out alongside of it. Long 
like Schley. 
HALBERT. Young trees inclined to be 
crooked, but get straighter as the tree 
grows older. Very early and prolific 
bearer. Medium size nuts, very thin shell, 
excellent flavor. A good tree for black 
waxy land. Should not be set in Missis¬ 
sippi, Louisiana, East Texas or Eastern 
Oklahoma. Fifty-seven per cent meat. 
SQ. DELIGHT. The chief merit of this 
variety is in its earliness of ripening, 
making it popular in sections having 
short growing seasons. Very popular in 
Oklahoma. The nut is long like Schley.
