A few pecan trees around the homes ; will yield the best of all the nuts. for food and return a cash revenue I besides. - The time from setting o&' the trees to gathering the nuts mayl be shortened at least one half b>' planting right varieties and giving I them a little care. There are door-yard trees yielding as high as 70 pounds of choice nuts I at 7 years of age and older trees' yielding as high as 700 pounds in a'1 single year.
