who lives on n five acre orange ranch
at Whittier. Cal. The tree is insured
against damage by wind or Are with
Lloyds Of London for 100000 During
the year 1912 it yielded it's owner a
profit Of $3,206. The tree is enclosed
by Stat fence thirty feet high, which
the insurance company requires Mr..
Woodwork to maintain.
Seven years ago the tree sprang from
the seed of an avocado that was grow
ing wild in the highlands of Mexico.
Burt Rideout. Los Angeles county
nurseryman. planted the tree on his
ranch, and when il was three years
old he sold the five acre ranch to Mr..
Woodwork, a retired Wall Street broker.
Nobody suspected that the tree would
prove the money maker it il. The aver
age alligator pear tree does not come
into bearing until 1t is eight or ten
years old. Mr.. Woodworth's avocado
began bearing in its fourth year Dur
ing the fifth year it produced $l,7l6
worth of fruit and bud wood. In its
sixth year 1t gave up $3,2O6 worth Of
fruit and bud wood, $500 Of which
was derived from the sale of alligator
pears at the rate Of Sc a dozen, and
I.7O2 came from the sale of buds at
from ten to twenty-five cents apiece.
Owing to the scarcity Of productive
avocado trees there il always a strong
demand for bud wood, with which to
bud young seedlings in the nurseries.
and when 1t became known that the
Woodwork alligator pear tree was
bearing heavily there was a general
rush for bud wood. Mr.. Woodwork
sold all the buds that he cared to take
from the tree and then raised the price
OF buds to twenty-five cents each, In
order to stop the demand. but that did
not check 1t.
II was afraid for a while that we
were going to injure the tree by cut
ting buds" he says. but I guess we
didn't hurt 1t in the least. At any rate
1t Is loaded with pears again. We took
more than 1900 pears from 1t prior to
New Years. and I should not be sur
prised II the total crop amounts to
5000 pears. for the branches are filled
with green fruit, which Is hardly dis
tinguishable. because 1t is nearly the
same color as the foliage"
