About Pecan Culture.
We continually read in Il Q
newspapers of phenomenal yiel1s
from pecan orchards. The profits
from these orchards are almost
fabulous and Pecan orchards un-
doubtedly pay the most handsome
dividends of anything known in
observation-disclosures are the most
valuable of commercial nuts and
the supply can never equal the
demand. The trees grow in any
Southern soil and require sbut
little attention. Anyone wishing
to improve his property should
write to the Southern Nut
Nursery Co., of Lafayette, Lou

prophecy of Congressman Wesley L.

these finished there is every reason
to believe that we will secure our
share of the two ships year planned
on the naval program of congress as
