FIGS 
Figs thrive in all portions of the Cotton Belt of the South 
as in no other section of the world; trees may be found 
growing in door-yards, near trash piles, in chicken runs, and 
near buildings in most luxuriant manner and producing enor- 
mous crops. 
_ No home pantry is complete without canned and preserved 
Figs for winter use. Figs come into bearing very early. 
With proper spraying to hold leaves on, fruit may be had 
from May to November. 
They require good fertilization, and do best on firm hard 
ground, kept free from all other growth. 
Commercial Fig Growing is extending throughout the 
South. They can be planted 10 to 18 feet apart and the 
yield is heavy, thousands of pounds of fruit being produced 
per acre. 
Brown Turkey—Probably the best fig for home use. Me- 
dium size, purplish brown, very sweet, highly flavored, 
and fine for eating fresh, with cream, or canned. No.

shipping. A very sweet, luscious fig. No. 759—2 to 3 ft.

A NEW FIG 
TEXAS EVERBEARING 
This is an outstanding new introduction. The facts we 
set out below are from observation and reliable information, 
which we checked for correctness. This fig was brought to 
Mississippi a number of years ago by a Frenchman from 
the Old Country. Several years later he moved to Tarrant 
County, Texas, about 15 miles from Fort Worth. He grew 
it for a number of years around his place, and introduced 
it to the Nursery trade. 
Facts About This Fig 
(1) It is hardier than any other variety known, and may 
be grown 100 miles further north than any other variety. 
(2) It is very large, as large as hen eggs. (3) Quality is un- 
surpassed. (4) Wonderfuly productive. The owner of a one- 
acre orchard in Tarrant County in the summer of 1937 sold 
more than $1000.00 worth of figs from his one acre. (5) Bears 
early. I saw cuttings that were planted in the nursery row 
in April with 18 well developed figs in August.

ready sale. y
