PLUMS 
Oka 
HE following varieties of plums are far 
superior to the older varieties, and we feel 
perfectly safe in recommending them. They 
are very fast growing and usually come into bear¬ 
ing the second year after setting. They are per¬ 
fectly hardy in our climate, and we have selected 
and propagated the following varieties which 
have shown exceptional qualities. 
Prices of all Plum Trees: 5 to 7 ft., 75c each; 
$6.50 per 10. 4 to 6 ft., 60c each; $5.00 per 10. 
Fiebing Prize —A very large plum. Mid-season. 
LaCrescent —An extremely vigorous tree, bear¬ 
ing pure yellow fruit of highest quality and 
delicate texture; most promising as an early 
home variety, but too tender for shipping. 
Monitor —A late mid-season variety, with a 
vigorous, well shaped tree, producing large, 
red, firm fleshed fruits of high quality. 
Red Wing—One of the largest Plums; ripens 
mid-season, with beautiful, red freestone fruits 
of high quality. 
Tonka —An extremely productive variety, pro¬ 
ducing large, round, red fruit; of firm flesh and 
good quality. 
Underwood —A large fruited, vigorous growing 
early maturing variety, especially popular on 
account of its size, red color, earliness and high 
quality. 
Waneta— Fruit is very large and the tree is 
exceptionally hardy. 
Superior (Minn. No. 194) —This new variety 
promises to surpass everything in the early 
varieties. Fruit is large and of high quality. 
Minn. No. 195 —Very similar to Superior, but 
not quite as thrifty. 
CHERRY-PLUMS 
The hybrid Cherry-Plum, which is a 
cross between a plum and cherry, has 
the flavor of the cherry and is hardy 
like the native plum, and the birds do 
not bother them. They are heavy yield- 
ers and are excellent for canning. The 
following varieties are dwarf in their 
habit of growth which accounts for 
the smaller nursery tree. 
Prices of Cherry-Plums: 4 to 6 ft., 75c each; 
$6.50 per 10. 3 to 5 ft., 60c each; $5.00 per 10. 
Special Mail Order Size, Postpaid, 40c each; 
$3.50 per 10. 
Z umbra —A hybrid containing the blood of the 
sweet cherry, wild pin cherry and sand cherry. 
It is a dwarf tree of the type of Sapa or Opata, 
a very productive variety. Quality is good, 
but should be thoroughly ripened before 
picking. Late mid-season.
