PLANT ONLY THE 
FINEST TREES... 
grown and produced by a firm specializing in 
finer stocks. Lacy trees have an excellent root 
system. 
Lacy Pecan Trees are the result of much care in planting 
and growing as they are produced from bearing stock in 
our orchards. All trees are budded or grafted and when 
you buy these trees you know their pedigree from our 
buds and grafts, being selected from early and heavy 
bearing trees from our own orchard. 
Practical experience and comparative tests have taught 
us something in regard to bearing conditions of the many 
varieties we have tested suitable for the various territories. 
Our nursery is ideally located for producing both Eastern 
and Western varieties in the East Texas area. Our acreage 
in Central Louisiana is producing all types of trees suitable 
for the Coastal area as well. 
You are definitely assured of a well developed root 
system bred-up from bearing stock produced in the short- 
est growing period as shown by the picture in lower left- 
hand corner. Our trees are measured from the ground 
up and are often as large as many others offered, in 
which the over-all measurement is taken from root tip to 
Tops. 
It is important that the pecan trees you buy will begin 
to produce and bear nuts as early as possible. The earlier 
they bear, the sooner they will produce a revenue. At the 
left we reproduce a photograph of a young tree showing 
measurement of it at the time that it was dug and pho- 
tographed (June 26, 1940). We consider our young 
trees grown under ideal soil and climatic conditions of this 
type to be most ideal for home and orchard planting. 
Trees of this type in many instances begin bearing in the 
third year and continue to increase in production from year 
to year. We attribute our success in producing unusually 
large caliper trunk growth to consistent. cultivation during 
our growing season and to fertilization with commercial 
fertilizers exclusively, along with proper spraying and care.
