Burbank, Japanese, named after the introducer of this and most of the 
other good plums. The best bearing variety we have. When fully ripe, 
the fruit is deliciously sweet. 
Normand’s Japan, Japanese; beautiful golden color, larger than Bur- 
bank, apple shape, ripe end of June. 
Hale, tree good grower, fruit very large, beautifuUy colored, of best qual- 
ity, ripe August. Does well in poor soil. 
Wickson, Japanese, tree grows in vase form, sturdy and upright. The 
fruit is evenly distributed all over the tree. It changes to white when about 
half gro^\^l and remains so until a few days before ripening, when it changes 
to a glowing carmine. Small stone, the flesh is of fine texture, firm, sugary 
and delicious, and will keep two weeks after ripening. A fine rare plum. 
Bartlett, a cross between Simoni and Delaware. Said to have exactly 
the quality, flavor and fragrance of the Bartlett Pear, but the Bartlett Plum 
is so much superior to the pear, that no one will ever eat the pear if this 
plum is at hand. Fruit turns deep crimson when fully ripe. Light, salmon- 
colored flesh. 
Satsuma, a very large and well Havered plum with blood-red flesh. Skin 
blueish red. Pit is very small. Tree grows very large and old, and is a very 
good bearer. 
Robinson, tree spreading and round in shape. About the most produc- 
tive of all. The fruit is of medium size and often colors up two weeks before 
it can be gathered. Has to be soft before edible. Robinson has stood droughts 
better than any other wth me. 
Kelsey’s Japan, vigorous, greenish yeUow, very large, excellent, prolific, 
sw'eetest of all plums, early bloomer. 
Sultan, a cross between Wickson and Satsuma, and the flesh is wdne or 
garnet colored hke that of Satsuma. The fruit is of unusual size and of 
remarkable beauty of form and color, 1 and 2 year old trees 26 cts. each.

Mulberries.

As a shade tree for the chicken yard the mulberry is about the best tree to 
be had. Chickens eat the fruit as soon as it drops from the tree. The finer 
varieties are also eaten by children. The tree grows very quickly and is 
easily transplanted.

Hicks Everbearing, profuse, 3 months, fine grower for shade, and the 
best of all trees for the fowl yard. 
Russian, unquestionably the best as a shade tree. The tree is very hardy 
and long Uved, and grows rapidly to a beautiful round shape. The fruit is 
small and does not drop from the tree when ripe; some trees do not produce 
fruit at all. It is very much sought for street planting, for the shining leaves 
stand the dust W'ell. 4 and 6 feet, 16 cents; 6 to 7 feet, 26 cents. 
English, a very quick-growing mulberry, with very large and well 
shaped leaves. The fruit is very large and of black color. Stem is very 
straight and can be topped at almost any desired height.
