mention of the growing importance of

sue of the Warren Daily Chronicle bean
upon the same matter;-
Mr. C. D. Whitney who has been the
proprietor of the Evergreen nurseries
for the past 18 yean, and who is a care
ful bwdness man, has decided to branch
out in a new business Sunday night he
returned from Thomaaville, Ga., where
on Thursday he pnrchased a farm of
100 acres at $30 an acre, entirely virgin
soli, which he will cultivate and plant
toapecan orchard,,
Ho ha» arranged to have 16 acres
planted the coming spring and 40 acres
more next year. Twenty trees oan be
planted to the acre, the trees costing
31 apieoe.". The variety to be grown will 1
be the budded or grafted kind, as they
prove much more profitable, are larger
and sweater nuts, aud of fiuer flavor
At present the market gets only the
seedling* which.. are bltt$r aiid hard-
shelled. As yet vefy few of the grafted
nnts have reached the market*, as they
are saved for reproduction. It takes
about five years for the trees to begin
to yield’nuts, and about eight years bo-,
fore they yield a paying income.
Mr. Whitney has contracted with a
man at Thomaaville to plant and care
for his orchard, for the nse of the ground
