PLUMS. 



The experience of the past season brought out very clearly 

 the superiority of native Plums in hardiness of fruit-bud when 

 compared with European or Japanese sorts. Many of the native 

 varieties bore good crops in 189G; none of the Japanese kinds 

 fruited except the Ogon, which bore one fruit, and that was 

 imperfect; some of the European kinds bore a few scattering 

 fruits, but many of them had no fruit. The fruit-buds were 

 formed in abundance the previous season but, as already stated, 

 they were nearly. all winter-killed, except those of native varie- 

 ties.
