MUNSON' PLUM. A large yellow plum, juicy and when 
full ripe has a tinge of pink in the skin. Tree is spreading 
and set very full every year. Our trees have never failed. 
Its size and color make it a very showy plum, both on the 
tree and in the basket. While it ripens early, it blooms late 
thus escaping freezes that kill the earlier blooming varieties. 
AMERICA. A hybrid of Robinson with Aubudance. Tree 
very thrifty, symmetrical, spreading; fruit medium to large 
bright golden ground with pink cheek, dotted white ; flesh 
firm, stone medium to large, cling. 
BURBANK. Large, clear purplish red, flesh deep yellow, 
very sweet and agreeable flavor. Very prolific. 
BRUCE. June 1. Large, red, productive. A hybrid origi¬ 
nated by Mr. A. L. Bruce of Donley County, Texas. On ac¬ 
count of early ripening, large size, firm shipping quality, 
productiveness, and deliciousness of flavor, we believe we 
should have to consider this the most profitable of all plums. 
MILTON. A valuable variety for the home orchard. Large, 
round; deep red with white flecks. Blooms late and is highly 
productive. Ripe in June. 
BLL T E DAMSON. Fruit large, dark purple, fine flavor, 
highly esteemed for preserving and jams. Ripens in August. 
OMAHA. Large red plum : flesh meaty, sweet and 
delicious. A very hardy and healthy tree; fast 
grower, bears first year after putting out; blooms 
late and escapes frost. Ripens July. 
SIX WEEKS. One of the earliest plums, ripens in 
early May. Bright red. juicy, brings good price on 
market, and is good for jellies and preserves. 
ABUNDANCE (Japanese). Large; amber in color 
changing to red. Fruit clingstone, juicy, and good. 
One of the hardiest of the Japanese varieties. Ripens 
a week later than Red Jur.e.
