SOUTH THE HOME OF PECAN CULTURE Great Progress Made In lm-
 proving Quality BEAR IN FIVE YEARS i Budded Trees redominant-Orchard at Five Years Is Worth $500 per
 Acre-History of the Fruit Industry.

pr. John T. Wilson. in Washington Post.
 Nut growing in the south means the growing of the pecan. It may be desig- mated as the aristocrat of horticulture. because of its popularity. its good quali- ties, and the commercial importance which attaches to its production and marketing.
 Nut culture in all parts of the country is receiving merited attention, but this prince of nuts is distinctively southern product, and is thus far most readily grown along the gulf coast, in the Mis- sissippi valley. below tho fortieth parallel of latitude, and along the Texas streams. Native trees are found asso in some parts of Mexico. This circumscribed territory is the only part of the world with native pecan trees There is reason to believe that a belt of gulf coast country about 200 miles wide will monopolize the com mercial production of this nut.
 History of the Industry.
 To understand the present and prospec- tive status of the industry. a brief resume of recent developments will be of inter- est. While the native seeding pecan has been known since the first settlement of the south, the business of growing the nut on a commercial scale Is less than 10 years old. During this brief period a new era has been inaugurated by cup planting seeding trees by budded and grafted stock of the finest known yari- cities.
 These modern nuts are as superior to the ordinary native seedlings now seen on the market as the best apples and peaches are Improvements on the native seedlings of these fruits. It was long supposed that the pecan, as in the case of other nuts could not be propagated like other fruits; but the persistent and skill full work of a few pioneers in Texas. Louisiana and Mississippi demonstrated that while more difficult than in the case of fruits, 1t could be done.
 This achievement, in connection with the fact that the pecan does not como true from seed furnished the basis for the present forward movement. It was discovered that budded or grafted tree will begin bearing in four or live years. while it requires ten to twenty years for the seeding to show what kind of a nut 1t will produce. Many of the seedlings

increases sufficiently to lower the present price they command. Their use in the manufacture of confectionery is increas- ing enormously, which, coupled with d growing general demand, has led to largely increased importations of various nuts from foreign countries. These and other considerations give assurance that 1t will be many years before any over production of oceans can occur. From the growers viewpoint, the business Is safe, profitable and parnanent-as an orchard, once established, is supposed to last for several hundred years.
 Valuable In Five Years.
 Mention was made above of the ap- proximate cost of an acre of orchard up to bearing age Conservative estimates of the property value of the orchard at the age of five years, based on ordinary, wel-known accomplished results, range from $300 to $500 an acre, while at 10 years double that amount is in reason. because the value of crops will annually pay dividends of and 10 per cent net profit on such vaoluations. Trees some times yield 100 pounds of nuts in a single crop by the time they are F years old. Not long ago the writer was shown a tree which bore a crop of over 600 pounds when it was 9 years old. These facts

 This is not a get-rich-auick business; and that fact alone will keep the bus- ness from being overdone. It takes cour- age, as we'll as money, to walt five years for dividends to commerce; but when the work has been properly performed the reward is sure. The orchard goes on in- creasng In value for years furnishing larger and larger dividends as time passes, does not work out as soon as coal mine or a gold mine does. nor wear out in 10 years, as does the machinery of a fac tory Besides 1t does not need to be insured. and it cannot be stolen, and beats life insurance by paying tn policy every year. without the necessity of your dying to enable some one else to realize on your investment.
 These things are mentioned simply to show what opportunities the south of fers. not only to her own people but to all the world-with the condition attached that the investment must be made in southern soil in order to realize the profits.

HANDBOOK MAN
SENT TOWORKHOUSE
Justice Chambers Sentences Prisoner
to Thirty Days, Saying Fine Is
Inadequate Punishment
for Offense

f. l. Newton was sentenced by Police
Justice Chambers yesterday morning
to serve thirty days in the workhouse
for operating a handbook on the races.
Newton was arrested Friday after
noon at cigar stand at S42 East Fifth
street. He was arraigned in police
court shortly afterward and entered a
plea of guilty. He admitted he knew he
was violating the lawsand intimated ne
thought he was clever enough to escape
detection. Newton was committed 10
Jail Friday afternoon to appear for sem
tence yesterday morning.
The jail sentence was inflicted despite
the strong plea for leniency made by
the accused. The penalty was made
more severe than is ordinarily imposed
because of the fact that Newton took
UP the business of another handbook
maker, who was fined 500 In police
court short time ago.
In passing sentence Justice Cham
bers gave Newton a severe lecture and
said: There would be few violations
If more Jail sentences were inflicted.
Fines are only a more lenient punish
ment Any man Who has the intelli-
gence you have should obey the law be-
cause 1t is the law"
When Newton is released from the
workhouse the racing season at Santa
Anita will have closed.
Friends of the accused were in the
courtroom when he was sentenced.
They had an automobile in waiting, ex-
pecting Newton to be released with
a fine.

COUNCIL TO DISPOSE
OF GARBAGE MATTER
CALLED TO MEET THURSDAY
AS COMMITTEE OF WHOLE
City Attorney Recommends That Or
dinance Be Passed to Give Social
Clubs Privilege of Selling
Liquor

President Pease will call meeting of
the committee of the whole of the
council next Thursday to consider all
matters before. it. The two most i'm
portant are the garbage and license
propositions.
The council is being severely CEN
sured for it's negligence in the garbage
matter. Early in December d. Is. Ed
wards, who was then a member OF the
board of public works, asked the coun-
Gil to adopt specifications so bids could
be asked for the disposal of garbage
The contract held by S. j. Mcclure ex-
pired in January. The council heard
plenty OF arguments for all methods OF
garbage disposal and referred the mat
ter TO the committee of the whole,
where 1t has been for two Or~three
months. Meantime the city is disposing
of it's garbage without contract, Nc
Clure being employed to handle it By
the month on the same terms as his
former contract
The license question is one that VIII
need much investigation. The commit
tee has the recommendation of City At
torney Hewitt that the council pass an
ordinance providing for club license.
The idea of this license is to give bona
fide social clubs the privilege OF selling
liquor and to place blind pigs that are
conducted under the name OF social
clubs where they can be reached by
the law. D.,
With this club question the whole
matter of licenses will be taken up and
many amendments made.
