good quality, and are we'll filled. The
greatest fault of this variety is that
the meats too completely fill the

that it is impossible to- crack it and

fact will destroy the value of this
variety for manufacturing purposes,

FOUR PROFITABLE
PECAN VARIETIES

Many varieties of pecans now
named and propagated will have to
be discarded entirely because of de-
fects that prevent their being pro-
fitably produced, according to B.

Extension Division, L. S. u.
Mr.. Hewitt was added to the ex-
tension staff Of the University on
Jan. l, 1916, and is devoting his en-
tire time to the pecan industry of
the State. Previous to his employ
ment pecan growers had little intelli-
gent guidance in their industry, and
consequently made many mistakes in
their selection Of varieties. Some of
the growers, however, heve been
able to convert their non,productive
trees, by top grating and budding,
into profit-producting varieties.
Some varieties will be profitable
in some localities and failures in
others, points out Mrg Hewitt. A few
will prove to be adapted to the con-
ditions Of the whole pecan-produc-
