My Dear SiI:
Allow me to congratulate you on
bringing into being the Pecan Ex-
position. This viii greatly benefit
the cause, and / hope it will develop
into at association for marketing
the nuts at the highest price pos
sible. II is worth while to keep the
nuts at premium, and this can be
done by cooperation. Represent
atives Of firms in this city that sell
nuts are beginning to call on me and
inquire about the improvee pecan,

ting their eyes opened, and last

will always command the top price.
No trouble to sell themr" He ad-
vised against letting them get on
as cracked kernels, as he thought
that would tend to degrade them to
the level Of the common Seeding.
/ am convinced, therefore, that
should be done to control the hand

gin to increase greatly, and to get
ready for it before the crops arrive.
Count on my cooperation in all
your plans in the pecan line.
Cordially yours,
