THE SPLENDOR PRUNE 



The fruits of the Splendor prune 

 are so placed on the tree that it mil 

 bear an immense load without break- 

 ing. The heavy fruits are borne on the 

 strong wood, near together, but far 

 enough apart to obtain a good distribu- 

 tion of weight. Not so extensively 

 grown as others on account of its habit 

 of clinging to the tree instead of fall- 

 ing when ripe. The fruit is of ex- 

 quisite quality.
