EVERY FAMILY IN THE
SOUTH SHOULD PLANT
PECAN TREES.
The Pecan tree not only bears
one of the most delicious nuts,
it is one of the most hardy trees
that grows in the south, and
as fine * shade tree as the Elm or
Maple and no family ought to
without a few trees. It would pay
the town authorities to do as
French authorities do, plant nut
bearing trees on the sidewalks and
get* revenue therefrom. A town
that would this year put out a
thousand trees on the sidewalks
at comparatively small cost, would
in ten years, get an annual return
of at least $600 00 and each year
there would be an increase until
the income would reach from three
to five thousand dollars annually,
Enough to more than pay nil tax
es of an ordinary size town.
The trees do well planted in
cotton and corn fields, and farmers
can cultivate the lands in crops of
coin and cotton until the trees
get to bearing and after they
commence bearing a farmer with
ten to twenty acres has a small
fortune in his pecan grove and
don’t need to plant co’ton and
corn. The tree is hardy nnd
etands the cold went her
fcouth of jMaryland. At
Bluff North Carolina there is
company that makes a
of growing the young trees
sale, and we advise the town
fjiorities, and nil readers of
paper, to write the
Grape & Pecan Company,
bluff, N. C., for circulars.
