We Are Selling Happiness, 
Income, Independence, Peace, Old Age Ease 
/^UR PECAN trees are only the means to the end. We are not seeking to sell you merely 
some trees, but to supply what those trees may mean for you and what they can provide. 
We know by our own experience and that of thousands of our customers, over a period of 
twenty-eight years, that our pecan trees may yield for you a steady income, ultimate independ¬ 
ence, retirement and happiness. And this applies not only to your immediate family but for 
future generations as well. 
How Pecans Fit In With Current Affairs 
W"_ HEAR a lot of talk these days about Sharing the Wealth, but no legislation is needed 
as long as there are pecans. These nuts are nuggets from Nature’s Gold Mine and with 
them you can share in her storehouse of wealth. 
Nor need you worry about an Old Age Pension, for with pecans you are assured inde¬ 
pendence in your old age. 
We hear a lot these days about Soil Control. A few pecan trees will do much to prevent 
erosion. Also, planted in that gully already formed, these trees will add value to otherwise 
worthless land. 
You don’t have to worry about Unemployment Insurance when you can have pecan trees 
working for you day and night. In just a few years you may be able to retire. 
How You Can Profit In This 
Aftermath of the Depression 
'V/'OU may have some idle land or even farm 
^ land which produces hardly enough to pay 
taxes. It would pay you to plant that land in 
pecans! The very minute the land is planted in 
growing trees you will have increased its value. 
Then the older the trees, the more valuable the 
land. You could do as we do here at Lumber- 
ton, not only grow pecan trees, but crops be¬ 
tween the rows, along with fruits and berries, 
and have livestock gra 2 ing among the trees. 
It would even pay you to buy up cutover 
or other idle land and plant it in pecans for 
resale. Land is cheap now and before values 
increase you could make considerable money by 
following our suggestion. Meanwhile, an addi¬ 
tional source of revenue. 
Your Land will Do Double Duty 
VJ^HY devote a piece of land to just one 
crop.^ With pecans you can put your 
land on a double shift. If you have growing 
crops, pecan trees won’t interfere.

Even on land just set out with pecans, 
crops can be planted between the rows. Peas, 
beans, clover and other leguminous crops will 
enrich the soil. Cotton, corn, sweet potatoes, 
watermelons and all kinds of truck, as well as 
strawberries and other fruits may be grown. 
After the trees are a few years old, cattle, hogs, 
mules, horses and other livestock, which is the 
most profitable type of farming, can be handled.
