Paper Shell Pecans

"Paper Shell Pecans" by Keystone Pecan Company is a publication focused on the cultivation, economic potential, and nutritional benefits of pecans, likely written in the early 20th century. The work emphasizes the demand for nuts as a sustainable food source, especially in light of diminishing animal protein supplies post-World War I. The text advocates for pecans, particularly the paper shell variety, highlighting their superior qualities compared to other nuts and meats, making a persuasive case for investment in pecan orchards. At the start of the publication, the reader is introduced to both the physical characteristics of the pecan nut and its economic importance. Numerous statistics are provided to demonstrate the increasing consumer demand for nut products, underscoring the shift away from animal-based protein sources as meat availability declines. The opening segments feature persuasive statements from authorities advocating for the nutritional superiority of pecans and a detailed discussion on the practicality of investing in pecan orchards, setting the stage for a compelling argument for both agricultural investment and dietary shifts towards nut consumption.
