The Pecan Tree.

The pecan tree, in the United States, grows chiefly in Louisiana, Texas, and Indian Territory. The nuts grown in Louisiana rank the first in quality. These nuts are shipped to all parts of the United States, and into Canada. There is no European market for them. The trees grow from sixty to seventy feet in height, sometimes higher. They yield a heavy and durable wood.
