One of the quaintest 
characters of early 
American history was 
known as “Johnnie Ap- 
pleseed.” As he peddled 
his wares over a sparsely 
settled section of young 
America, he carried with 
him a bag of appleseed 
or a bundle of apple 
seedlings, from which he 
gave freely and gener- 
ously to the settlers. He 
was a welcome visitor 
wherever he went.

If a farmer uses his 
farm name as a part of 
his selling operation in 
marketing his products, 
it is possible for him to

As strange as if may 
seem, many people in the 
northern part of the Unit- 
ed States do not know 
how to prepare pecans for 
eating — they have never 
seen anything but '‘'toast- 
ed, salted pecans,'' and 
don't realize how delic- 
ious the pecan can be if 
taken fresh from the shell. 
On the other hand, how 
many Southerners would 
be at a loss to know how 
to utilize Chestnuts? P. S. 
What's a Chestnut good 
for, anyway?
