FINE CROP PECANS
Mr. R. E. Lee Hawkins has in his
Pecan Grove near the city an excep
tionally fine crop of Pecans. The
fact is it is a magnificent sight to
behold to go into and through his
grove and see the hundreds of fine
trees loaded almost to the breaking
point with as fine nuts as you will
find in Georgia. You can have little
idea of what a splendid sight it is
until you actually see the trees with
the immense quantity of nuts with
which they are laden. There are a
great number of trees scattered all
over the grove which will yield him
from fifty to one hundred pounds
of nuts. These nuts are filled to the
limit with meat, rich and delicious,
making them a product at once a ne
cessity and a luxury.
Mr. Hawkins has 3,000 trees in his
grove, many of them large and beau
tiful, which would be ornamental in
any yard, and nearly all of them
are full of the.se fine nuts. The Mo
biles and Stuarts are the varieties
which very largely predominate in
Mr. Hawkins’ grove, both nuts of
the finest quality and size, paper
shelled and nuts most desirable from
every standpoint.
Mr. Hawkins has owned this grove
only the past two years, but he is
giving every attention to its develop
ment and from the crop of nuts he
has secured this year he is going to
be abundantly repaid for the time
and money he is putting into the in
dustry. He expects to harvest some
thing like 40,000 pounds this year,
which in all probability will readily
sell at from 40 to 60 cents a pound
and if so he will evidently realize
a fine income from this year’s yield.
Mr. Hawkins has goine into the Pe
can growing as he does into other
endeavors and his success seems to be
assured.
