FRoT5cHER
Different Varieties Of Pecans.

and of course no crop of any kind
should be planted in the tree row
itself
A good farmer who, at my solicita-
ton, set out a pecan orchard, asked
me one day to look at his trees, be-
cause they did not seem to be doing
we'll. When l drove with him to his
place l had difficulty in finding his
orchard, for the place on which he
had planted it was now a solid field
of tall, waving corn, which looked as
If it would produce 100 bushels to the
acre. l could not at first see a single
pecan tree, but after locating the corn
row in which the trees were set was
able to find a number of dead ones
an some very small. living but dis
couragedlooking trees. They would
have had more chance of survival IN
the struggle in their native forests
than in that jungle OF corn. The field
was planted solid with corn, there
being just one hill left out where the
pecan tree stood. The trees were cul-
tivated, and intensely SO, but what
chance had they of surviving, much
less making a satisfactory growth?
believe that when Euclid, the mathe-
matician Of antiquity, said, 1T is i'm
possible to have two things In the
same space at the same time" he was
thinking especially OF q corn crop IN
a pecan orchard. Corn is too tall a
plant and too gross a feeder to be
used successfully as q cover crop In
any kind of an orchard, unless 1t Is
kept at a reasonable distance from
the trees.
Besides giving the young pecan trees
reasonable protection from the en-
| croachment of crops, they should be
| protected from their worst of all enc
mics, "the niger and the mule" 1t
makes no difference how vigorous a
tree grows, If it is run over period
ically with a pillow and barked by
tr~ace-chains and singletrees, it never
gets to beariag age. This enemy usu-
ally can bel at bay by driving In
three or four stout STAKES Hnu nafffHs
them solid at the top with Stats so
as to securely inclose the tree.

(By PROF. w. N. HUTT, North Carolina
Experiment Station)
In my experience, n Of the best
places for planting a pecan orchard is
in the cotton field. Pecan trees are
very deep-rooted, feed far below the
surface, do not encroach much on
the cotton land until they are big
enough to give a profit for its use.
Pecan trees should be set not less than
so feet apart; 60 feet is better. In
these wide middles cotton and other
crops can be successfully cultivated
for years until the trees require all
the land. In this way a planter need
not be out of the use of his land,
but can at the same time be gradually
changing an annual crop that adds
no permanent increment to the value
of his soil to a perennial one that
makes his land more valuable every
year it grows upon it. OF course, 1
would not advise cotton planters to
put all their lands in pecan trees, but
! do believe that every cotton planta-
ton would be enhanced in value il
1t had on it a larger or smaller pecan
orchard, if only of a few trees. A
special advantage of the cotton field
for pecan planting is that the trees
are practically assured Of cultivation.
/ have never seen a pecan orchard
that was a success unless it was cul-
tivated, at least while the trees were
young. 1t is for this reaso that !
prefer the term pecan orchard" to
pecan grove" for the latter term has
about 1t more of the idea of a green
unbroken turf. and, from my expert
ence, l am very sure that this is not
the condition conducive to large yields
of nuts. Professor Van Deman said,
Mature plants groves, but man plants
orchards"
Where maintenance crops are grown
in a pecan orchard, judgment should
be exercised in not allowing the rows
to encroach too closely on the trees,
thus robbing them Of the plant food
and moisture. If this is done, valuable
time-wiI he lost in getting he trees
into bearing. Maintenance oscoser
crops should not be allowed to grow
nearer than six feet to the tree row,
