A Highly Commended Plum 



The new Maynard plum, which is said to be 

 the greatest plum creation of that wizard of 

 horticulture, Luther Burbank, is being- sold in 

 Canada by Stone & Wellington, nurserymen, 

 who have Ibought the sole right to sell this plum 

 in Oanada. On every tree they sell they are 

 under contract to give Mr. Burbank a royalty. 

 Mr. Burbarik has sent out the Maynard plum 

 with the assurance that it surpasses in quality 

 and beauty of fruit any plum heretofore intro- 

 duced. In fact, ■some leadiing growers believe 

 that in the Maynard plum he has reached the 

 point of perfection. In size it is very large, 

 often measuring seven and a half inches in cir- 

 cumference. The form ls' nearily round, sJightly 

 flattened at the ends ; in color it is a rich crim- 

 son purple, deepening to royal damask as full 

 ripeness is reached. A more beautiful fruit 

 were hard to imagine. The flesh is firm even 

 when dead ripe, but melting and juicy with a 

 deliciousness indescribable. The fruit, there- 

 fore, for table use and as a shipper has no com- 

 petitor. 



Apple and Fruit Boxes 



After considerable agitation covering many 

 years the apple growers of Canada have opened 

 their eyes to the necessity of marketing their 

 fruit in boxes, along the saime lines as is done 

 by the growers in California, who have been so 

 successful. The boxes containing California 

 fruit are all well made and well printed, giving 

 the contents a splendid display appearance.
