It was discovered in the orchards of Clyde S. Mumma,, 

 Dayton, Ohio, in a general planting of Montmorency trees 

 and when we first saw the tree it was about 10 years of age 

 and loaded down with fruit, having a heavier crop than any 

 other trees adjoining it. All trees had the same attention 

 and Mr Mumma says it had always borne this large type 

 of Montmorency. The tree is vigorous but not any larger 

 than other trees. The fruits have the same rich red color as 

 other Montmorency cherries but seems to be slightly more 

 mild in flavor. Its immense size immediately attracted our 

 attention. We grew several hundred trees of this type for 

 Mr Mumma's own planting and after further observation 

 now pass it on to our customers at no additional cost to 

 them Nature again contributes an IMPROVED TYPE TO 

 ONE OF OUR GREATEST SOUR CHERRIES. Please state 

 when ordering whether vou wish the Regular Montmorency 

 or the BOUNTIFUL STRAIN IMPROVED MONTaiOREN-
