THE PECAN 
The Pecan, State Tree of Texas, surpasses all trees 
for sheer beauty, permanence, and profit. Plant Siuari’s 
papershell pecans for your own pleasure and profit, 
and to provide a natural endowmeni for your children 
and grandchildren. 
With great pride we offer you our proven varieties of 
budded papershell pecans. We consider the varieties 
offered and our own siock in these variciies to be of the 
best. Our trees grow much fasier, are more productive, 
and bear younger than the seedling trees. 
Closest attention is given by the management to see 
that only the very best bud woods are selected for the 
budding of our papershell pecans. These fine buds are 
budded on hardy Texas pecan seedlings. This combi- 
nation of rugged root stock and buds of high quality 
and vitality produces the best of trees. 
In planting, bear in mind the permanence of the 
pecan tree and iis great size: allow plenty of room. 
Do not plant the trees closer than 40 feet to each other. 
In commercial plantings, it is better io space them 60 
by 60 feet. 
In ideal pecan soils, the post-hole digger may be 
used to open the holes for the trees. Plant the trees 
about two inches deeper than they stood in the nursery 
row. Return the good top soil to the hole first, water well, 
and finish refilling hole wiih dirt and tamp well. 
After irees are well esiablished, good commercial fer- 
tilizer is beneficial. Cover crops are especially good. 
By all means, spray as needed. Consult your County 
Agent about local conditions. 
In tight soils, it is better to open a good-sized hole so 
the trees will find a friendlier place in which to estab- 
lish themselves.
