A LUSCIOUS FRUIT 



This shows a specimen of the 

 "Standard" Prune. (Enlarged one- 

 fourth.) This prune is so large that 

 nine or ten of them weigh a pound. 

 The stone is so relatively small that it 

 represents only three-fifths per cent of 

 the total bulk. It is also freestone 

 a very great merit, as every user of 

 prunes mil admit. These massive 

 prunes are often sold in the market 

 as plums to be eaten fresh.
