THE PLUM 



Easily grown and very profitable for commercial purposes. When planted for home use, the trees thrive par- 

 ticularly well if set in poultry yards, where they afford shade for the fowls, are kept well fertilized, and are more 

 free from insects. We offer this year about 100,000 trees, in the following varieties. The most desirable sorts for 

 home and commercial purposes are Red June, Abundance, Burbank, Shropshire Damson and Wickson.
