Stuart Pecans__First Choice of America 
A peee Stuart is our first choice, and is the most popular of all the improved 
varieties of pecans. This variety has been more extensively planted than any 
other, and large plantings of this variety are being made throughout the South. The 
trees are vigorous, bear regularly, and resist scab. They are early and heavy bearers. 
The nuts are large and well-filled, the kernels are plump with a meat content of 
49% to 50%, and of excellent flavor. The nut is shaped nicely, and fills well. 
These nuts are easiest to grow, sell well on the market, and bring a high 
market price. 
The major portion of our orchards is in Stuart trees, and in recent years we 
have topworked many other varieties, less satisfactory, over to the Stuart variety. 
We recommend the BASS Bred-Up Stuart pecan trees as the most profitable 
and satisfactory of the pecan trees. We have an unusually large stock of these fine 
trees this season, and believe it would pay you to plant these in preference to others, 
Pecan Trees Have No Age Limit 
Just to show how long pecan trees will live, grow, and produce, and further 
to prove the wisdom and foresight of George Washington, the Father of Our 
Country, in the year 1785 or thereabouts, President Washington planted pecan 
trees which are still living, in fine condition, and bearing. Washington was indeed 
looking to the far distant future, and leaving behind a living and growing memorial, 
producing for the generations to come later.
