MAHAN PECANS 
MAHAN PECAN 
You can grow the world’s finest pecans in 
your own back yard. 
Mahan trees are vigorous with extra large 
leaves and make as fine a shade tree as any 
you can plant. In addition they start bearing 
the second or third year and rapidly increase 
in production so that in a short time you will 
have all the fine pecans you want for home 
use and a surplus to sell. 
With each order for Mahan trees we send 
full instructions for proper planting and care 
that will insure your getting the best and 
quickest crops, 
Plant a few Mahan trees in your yard and 
you will certainly be proud of the enormous 
pecans they produce. 
Every Mahan tree is guaranteed to grow, 
and any that might, for any reason die within 
one year of shipping date, will be replaced 
f. o. b. Monticello for only $1.00. 
@ The Georgia Coastal Plain 
Experiment Station recently 
completed a 12-year test they 
made of sixteen of the most 
popular varieties of pecans. 
The results of this test are 
shown in the table at the 
right. 
Note that the MAHAN not 
only led the field, but was 
WAY OUT IN FRONT—not 
only in the size of nuts, but 
in the average annual yield. 
Isn’t this convicing proof to 
you that the MAHAN is the 
pecan you’ve been looking 
for?
