M ississippi Giant Papers hell Pecans 
lyriSSISSIPPI GIANT PAPERSHELL PECAN—It is claimed $5000 was paid for 
the parent tree at Kosciusko, Mississippi by F. A. Mahan of Monticello, Florida. 
This new variety is a very vigorous, thriTy grower with large beautiful foliage. The 
shell is very thin — being easily crushed in your hand — the meat has fine flavor. 
It is a very early and heavy bearer of large nuts that sell at high prices. Thousands 
of little trees have been sold at $5.00 to $6.00 each — our price just the same as 
Stuart, Success and Schley. See Page 24 for prices. 
Bass Bred-Up Schley Pay Big Dividends 
C CHLEY — One of the most popular of all papershell pecans on account of its very 
^ thin shell, fine cracking quality — beautiful color and rich nutty flavor. It always 
commands a high price on the market. In some localities, however, the Schley has 
a tendency to scab, so before purchasing be sure that this variety does well in your 
section.
