VARIETIES OF PLUMS FROM NATIVE AMERICAN SPECIES. 21 



Gale, h mi (?). A variety sent to the Wisconsin Agricultural Experiment Station 

 in 1891 by J. Gale & Son, Waukesha, Wis. It is said by E. S. Goff to be an ameri- 

 cana, but since he describes the leaves as being glandular and obtusely serrate, it can 

 not be that species. Specimens from J. W. Kerr under the name Gales appear to 

 be hortulana mineri, although it may be a bybrid with americana, the influence of 

 the latter species appearing mainly in the fruit.
