HardyPlums 
Why not plant some Plums which 
bear large crops the second year aft' 
er planting? But don’t stop with one 
tree, for the laws of nature make 
them bear better in groups. There 
are plums for every palate and for 
every purpose. From the sugary 
fruit of the prunes to the most 
sharply acid, and from the small 
trees for dooryard shade to the 
kinds adapted for large orchards, 
the Plum affords ample room for se' 
lection and adaptability. As a fruit 
for the home orchard, the Plum is 
ideal, while for the commercial grower, the 
opportunities are almost unlimited. 
No other fruit, unless it is the cherry, 
will produce more abundantly than the 
Plum.

The list that we offer are the choicest

wonderful crops of beautiful fruit. Fruit is very attractive; red, firm,

WELCH’S BLUE BONNET. This Plum was originated by us here 
at Shenandoah. We have been breeding this Plum up for a good 
many years and now have enough stock of it to offer to the 
trade. This tree is a vigorous, upright grower and is not subject 
to breakage from wind. The fruit is bluish purple, round in 
shape and resembles the California Prune; also excellent to eat 
from the tree or for canning, because of its high content of 
sugar. Tree is a prolific bearer. 4 ft. trees, 40c each; 3 for $1.00.
