HOW TO PLAN 
A MODERN 
GRAYWAY 
PAPERSHELL PECAN ORCHARD 

This beautiful pecan orchard, just in its tenth year, belongs to the 
UL. S. Government. 
Good soil—good trees—good care. 

Over 2500 pounds delicious papershall pecans per acre the fifteenth 
year—nearly $1000 per acre retail value. 
Look how the trees are hanging with nuts. 

Nearly 1000 GRAYWAY papershell pecan trees are growing in this 
fine young orchard that belongs to the U. S. Government, just begin- 
ning to bear. . 
Only a short time until they will begin to produce a good profit. 
PLAN ADAPTED FROM U. S. 
GOVERNMENT PLANTING 
During the past few years we have been using, in 
quite a number of commercial plantings for our cus- 
tomers, an orchard plan adapted from the planting 
plan of an orchard of about 2,000 trees belonging 
to the U. S. Government near Brownwood, Texas. 
The heart of this plan is the utilization of early, 
heavy-bearing varieties spaced to occupy the land 
fully during the early life of the orchard, thereby 
bringing it into paying production at a very early 
age. 
EARLY and HEAVY PRODUCTION 
We believe it is posible for a well cared for 
pecan orchard set according to our modern plan 
actually to pay for itself before the ordinary plant- 
ing will come into profitable commercial production. 
An ‘orchard set by this plan should come into 
commercial production from 3 te 5 years earlier than 
the ordinary planting, be in profitable bearing stage 
at 6 to 8 years of age, and in commercial production 
at around 10 years of age as compared with 15 to 
20 years for the usual planting. The orchard should 
produce QUADRUPLE the income of an ordinary 
planting for the first 12 to 15 years, and DOUBLE 
it for the following 8 to 12 years. 
Our modern plan also provides POLLENIZERS. 
In :ecent years scientific workers have shown that 
certain varieties of pecans produce better with 
other nearby varieties to furnish pollen at the proper 
time.
