100000 REFUSED FOR ELEVEN
ACRES OF PECANS
Another Valuable Pecan Orchard
Heard From In Southwest Georgia,
This One Being in Terrell County.

Americas Times Recorder.
Mrs. c. w. Gunnels, of Terrell, from
whose pecan grove of eleven acres the
finest nuts sold in Americas and other
markets nearby are grown; has recent
~ declined cash offer of twenty
thousand dollars for her grove, or very
nearly two THOUSAND dollars per acre
This is the top price offered for a
pecan orchard and evidences the value
of a few acres planted in trees of this
variety.
The Times-Recorder published re-.
Gently the offer of $4,000 for grove
of eighty acres in Lee county, which
the owner Mrs. Ramsey, is said to
have declined, as she would not know
how to profitably and safely invest
such a large amount. But the offer
Tor the Gunnels grove of eleven acres
is even better. This latter grove is
now thirteen years old and consists
largely of Seeding trees. The nuts
are the largest and finest grown in this
section of Georgia, and the annual
crop is worth 1920 to 81 500. Ameri-
Gus dealers handle a small portion of
her crop and would gladly get more,
such Is the demand for the nuts here.
Mrs. Gunnels has an assured income
from her eleven acres, as the trees will
produce even larger crops as they
grow older.
