The Plum, while thriv- 
ing on any good soil that 
is well drained, produces 
its best growth in a rich 
loam, inclined to clay. The 
ravages of the curculio, 
which have been so preva- 
lent for years past, can be 
easily overcome by careful 
attention. Soon after the 
fruit forms, shake the 
trees every morning for 
about two weeks, in the 
following manner: Spread 
a sheet under the tree, and 
then, by sudden but gentle 
jars, the diseased fruit and 
insects can be shaken off 
carefully destroyed.
