Nicksbure. Miss, April 1.-The day of
the lightningrod agent with his graft has
given place IN this section to the wiles of
the fake pecan tree statesmen.
Samuel II. James. a Madison parish
planter. who has found the growing of real
pecan trees a profitable industry. calls at
tention to the SWindlirg game that is being
practiced:
The country is simply overrun with
these tree peddlers, making false state
ments in reSard to pecans. in order to sell
trees. and referring to me and my grove
as an example. They have sold large NUM-
bers of common wild trees, some claiming
them to be grown from the largest pecans
in the world. In the last week one of these
men has been at Mound securing the woods
over. and filling his orders with common
trees from the swalnps. The sap has risen
stopped filling orders for the last month.
Any pecan tree reset in this climate In that
time will die.
These men nave made the most prepos-
FERROUS claims in order to sell pecan trees.
They claim that by the use of a certain fer

years old and bears barrels at eight

years of age. 1t never becomes a profitable
investment under thirteen years.
over a hundred thousand common wild
pecan trees have been planted in the last
three years. all sold by travelling agents
under the most preposterous claims. Can
YOU imagine the feelings of the owners Of
these trees after giving them careful at
tentiou for ten years when they lind out
they will not bear? Persons wishing to
plant pecan groves should write to the di-
rector Of the various experimental stations
and find out who the honest dealers in pc
can trees are. The Commissioners OF Agri-
culture should also be consulted. Honest
men should use every endeavor to put a
stop to this wholesale robbery"
