Plum and Cherry. 



Having been assigned the part of writing a paper on " Plum and 

 Cherry Cnltnre " for this Society, I will try, in my feeble way, to give 

 the Society the benefit of what little I know in regard to this fruit and 

 its culture. Just why I have been selected to write a paper on this 

 important fruit when there are older members here that know more 

 about it I cannot tell. In setting an orchard for either family or com- 

 mercial use, I would set a plum orchard 15x15 feet each way, first
