SOUND PECAN PLANTING
ADVICE.

BY C. r. Bienvenu. Lafayette, La
The pecan. the most profitable
of all nut-bearing trees. stands
pre-eminent where soil and eli
matte conditions prevail to favor
its best development. The pecan
industry has been overlooked or
rather neglected too long. and il
is time that we begin looking into
it more seriously. The most strik
mo thing in looking about the
country is that you will zee homes
after homes. beautifully lined up
with avenues Of oaks. elms and
many other trees. but the pecan
tree is overlooked. 1t is very
nice to have these avenues lined
I'D with shade txees and all homes
and roadsides likewise, but why
not make them with profitable as
well as shade trees. The pecan
tree should receive first consid-
Grafton where it can be planted,
as it offers so many advantages
over other trees. In beautlfvlng
the home and for shade, the pecan
trees should be planted in pref
erence to Others. They are pro-
ductive. have a beautiful foliage,
and are monuments to one s high
ideal. And for profit. there are
few industries taken up by the
South but offer greater and more
lasting returns than the produc-
ton of pecans. The planting Of
trees of proven merits is no more
an experiment. for it has all been
proved; and since the growing of
pecans was inaug,irated by bud
ding and grating. the industry
has advanced wonderfully. Many
orchards were planted. developed
and made to bear valuable crops.
We need more pecans to do away
with the importation Of nuts. The
United States imports millions of
dollars Of nuts every year, nuts
that are inferior to it's fine propa-
gated varieties Of pecans.
To make money and to make it
in the shortest time is a most nat
ural ambition. MANY individuals
are Indifferent to the cultivation
of pecan orchards for the mere
fact that time is the question.
Needless to say, pecan orchards
do require a certain length Of
time before large returns can be
had. But when we work or in
vest we often consider posterity.
The cost is small and the land
can be used to other crops until
the trees attain their bearing age.

dOG-CHOLERA SERUM AMI
TILE SANITARY CONTROL
OF CHOLERA.

Inc State Legislature makes q,
a a., iation to the State Live
STOCK Sanitary Board for the
p'oouctlon Of hog-cholera serum
iof the protection of the hogs OF
the State against hog-cholera Al
'ne same time. this Rorad !,
charged By law with the sanitary
control OF the infection of This
uisease; and if the sanitary regi,.
iatlons OF the Board are not com
plied with. in addition to the pro.
lection afforded by the use of
the serum, the purpose for which
the Board was created in this
connection, is not likely to be
achleved. While the success of
the sJrum prepared and distri.
outed by this Board has been
most encouraging, the outbreaks
OF hog-cholera seem to be on the
increase in the State: and the
Board is inclined to the opinion
that this is largely due to neglect
on the part Of those using the
serum. OF the careful sanitation of
the dead animals and their sur
roundlngs. which is required by
the regulations Of the Board in
order to control and eradicate the
injection of the disease. There is
scarcely a dav passes that does
not bring to the office of the
Board requests for hog-cholera
serum from different parts of the
State. If. however. strict SAM
tary methods are not adopted to
check and eradicate the Infection
from. infected herds. the disease
is going to keep on spreading. and
it may not be possible for the
Board to produce enough serum
to keep pace with the increasing
spread of the disease. This Board
desires to impress upon hog own
ers in the State that the use Of
the serum is only a part of the
measures necessary to oct rid Of
hOg-cho!era. as it requires beth
protection to the hogs and the
strict sanitation Of the carcasses,
and disinfection Of the premises,
etc. as required by the Board to
effectually stamp out the infcc-
ton.
IF. therefore. the sanitary reg
ulations are not strictly ccmplied
with. in addition to the use of the
serum, it may become necessary
for the Board to restrict its dis
tribution to those onlv who rigid
lv carry out the sanitary regula-
lions, in order that the appropria-
ton may 90 as far as possible, AMI
the greatest good be accomp-
lished.

SO plant your orchard this fall
The best. time is the present time
In a few short years you will
realize that a mistake was made
in not planting sooner. Now is
the time and no better time than
today.
AS stated above, the planting
Of pecan trees does not hinder
your making use Of the land by
owing whatever crop your soil
is adapted to. You must not nee
c>sarlly stop your farming opera
tons because You have set out
your farm into pecan orchard.
Grow field crops between the
trees for many years after they
are planted, or until the trees go
TO bearing large crops, which will
then yield a far greater revenue
than the ordinary crop would,
and the yield will be greater and
greater year after year. A very
desirable feature Of pecan orch
arding is that you can intercrop
with other smaller fruit tree,
citrus and figs. These small fruits
and truck will more than pay for
the land, trees and all expenses
in the first five years.
The growing of pecans is safe
and profitable and should appeal
to the investor and land owner.
The trees are vigorous growers
and are subjected to few diseases
and rarely. if at all, attacked by
injurious insects. The grated or
propagated varieties always have
a market, and on account of
their superiority they command
the very best price the market Of
fers. One great ADVANTAGE with
a pecan crop is that it is not per-
ishable and can be marketed at
leisure. The yearly increase in
price per pound shows that the
demand is increasing and the peo-
pie are more and more realizing
the value Of the pecan as an arti-
Gle Of food; hence. we see that
the pecan. the most popular of
nuts. has great possibilities to be
in it's culture. The pecan
industry today is based absolute
ly upon budded and grated
stock. No one should ever think
Of starting an orchard by plant
ing the nuts or seedlings. unless,
with intentions Of progagating
them later. 1t is a known fact
that Seeding trees will not pro-
duce desirable fruit. The mod
ern method Of pecan orcharding is
to start with stock that Wi
produce a desired nut and one
that will come to bearing in very
few years after planted. It is a
waste of time and money to in
vest in Seeding trees, therefore
plant only grated and budded
trees, and remember that one
planting of pecan trees will last
a lifetime; SO plant only high
grade stock. the best on the mar
ket, and then even your great
will also benefit by
them. In selecting trees for home
Or commercial planting, make
proper selections from a reliable !
nursery or grower. Plant the
very best, for you will not live to
reap all the nuts that they will i

INCREASING VALUE OF LANDS
Immense uaeultlvated Area Cannot

Highways Are Constructed.

There are over 4OOO0O,O0O acres OF
uncultivated land in the United States
awaiting development that cannot be
developed without improved highways.
II has been shown that the value OF
land is increased evenly with the i'm
provement for the roads,, the increase
running from 81 to 50 the acre. AS
the roads are improved, there Is a
corresponding increase in population.
In twenty-five counties, taken at ran
dom, which have contained on an av-
erage only IL per cent Of improved
roads in the decade 1890 to 1900,
there was a falling off in population
of 5000 in each county. In twenty
five other counties, taken at random,
IN which there was an average of AZ
