Only the Finest Trees 
Our Trees Have Finest Root Systems 
O pecan trees in the World have finer root systems than 
the trees we grow here at Lumberton. Our soil is ideal for 
the development of a full root system, thrifty, vigorous and 
healthy. We never had a visitor who didn’t say he saw more 
and finer pecan nursery stock growing in our nurseries than 
anywhere else—and we have had hundreds and hundreds of 
° 
visitors in the past 35 years. 
Best Packed Pecan Trees 
OU can buy the finest pecan trees in the World, but if 
they are not dug and packed well for shipment you will 
not have anything when you get them. Because they will not 
live and grow for you. We dig our trees by hand with specially 
made shovels and we go deeper and get more and finer roots 
than any nurseryman we know of. Read testimonials on page 22 
of this catalog and see what customers say. Note how we pack 
trees to keep them from being bruised and dried out when they 
reach you. Customers are loud in their praise of our fine dig- 
ging, packing and handling of orders. You pay us for the finest 
trees and service, and we do our utmost to see that you get 
just that. 
Plant Our Early Bearing Trees 
OU may find trees for less money than ours, but in the end 
they will not be cheaper trees: Remember it takes no more 
land to plant a fine tree on than a sorry one. And the fine tree 
will live and grow better, bear sooner, and will bear finer 
pecans. Buy your trees direct from us, and you will always be 
sure you are getting the finest. 
WARNING 
Call for trees as soon as they arrive, as we pack them to reach you in 
excellent condition if taken out immediately upon arrival. Inspect 
trees at the station, and refuse if in bad order, so we may make claim 
against railroad. If any damage has been done in shipping, have 
agent write on express receipt that they were damaged. Send us 
damage receipt and we'll promptly replace trees.
