GOLD MINE IN
YOUR BACK YARD
EVERY HOME OWNER COULD
GROW PECAN TREES ON HIS
PLACE.

c. R. Long. in the Foley OnloOker,
says: The pecan is variety Of hickory
(HicoTia Pecan or CaTya OIivaefOr-
m1s.) The tree grows to a height of
from so to 100 feet, and the trunk to
feet in diameter. A tree in full
bearing will produce as much as 500
pounds to the tree. The age of the
tree is vaTiOUsly stated; some say 100
years, and some say 900 years.
Within the exception of a few ia
vorable spots in Mexico. the United
States is the only country in which
the pecan grows naturally. it is ma
tive OF no other country on the face
OF the globe. Very little attention
was paid to it as a source of wealth,
until quite recently, in spite Of which
1t is already becoming a staple on
every market.
Twenty years ago no such thing as
a budded or grated pecan tree In
bearing was known, and now there
are thousands Of budded and grated
trees being planted every year.
The effect Of budding OF grating
the pecan is truly remarkable From
tree that takes twelve or fifteen
years to come into bearing, il changes
It to a tree that will bear in from
three to five years and We have seen
a few trees that were less than one
year old with well developed nuts on
them, and We have seen many trees
at two years old from graft in bear
ing. Its geographical distribution in
this country is large, extending from
Iowa 10 the Gulf of Mexico, and from
the Atlantic to the Pacific coast; but
the nuts reach their greatest peTfec-
ton south of latitude 81.
No doubt the bUdde Varities would
40 well as far north as the pecan
trees are found growing wild, but
they would hardly reach the same
perfection as where climate and
length Of season are more favorable
The nuts are worth on our markets
from 5 to % cents per pound, &C
cording to size and quality. These
are seedlings; no budded or grated
sorts have yet been sold, except for
the purpose of planting, and bring

of a number of financial and indus

The banker was the lessee of a

CONVICTED.

In the case of Paul Savage, who
was charged with beating a woman
at McGill several days ago. the de-
PENDANT was yesterday found guilty
by Judge Cartwright, who fined the
fellow $50 and costs. Some days ago
the woman who was beaten by Saw
age called at the Office of Attorney
Zurich and told him a pitifnl story
about treatment she received at the
hands of the man. Mr.. Zurich
thought a lesson should be taught
the defendant and so had a warrant
sworn out for his arrest. When the
woman was on the stand she showed
evidences of fear and the story she
told was not in all respects the same
as she originally related. Had it not
been for other witnesses it is doubt
full If a conviction could nave been
had.
