Underwood 
Underwood 
and annual bearing. 
The Underwood is valuable 
because of its large, early fruit 
It is the earliest of the large 
Plums, attaining a size of 1% inches in diameter. 
The tree is a vigorous grower, the limbs being strong 
and well distributed and able to carry great loads of 
fruit. Plums, attractive red with splendid quality, 
small pit, hang well to the tree, ripening over a long 
period, August 1st to 15th, enabling three pickings 
to be made. The Underwood is an annual bearer. 
These features appeal alike to the commercial grow¬ 
er and to the home orchardist. 
POLLENATOR PLUMS 
POLLENATOR PLUMS are essential for suc¬ 
cess in plum raising. Be sure to include one or more 
POLLENATOR PLUMS in every group of Jum¬ 
bo Plums. In large plantings at least 1 Pollenator 
to 8 or 10 other plums. If you have a group of 
plum trees not doing well, add some pollenators 
to the group this spring. 
The varieties below have proven to be the best 
pollenators and are in addition very excellent plums 
in themselves. 
J^Jumbo Plums 
Big as Californ ia pi ums 
Taste Better 
The choice list of Jumbo Plums described below are considered the 
cream of the list. Our recomendation is to plant the full assortment as 
each one has a different season—each a different flavor. You will find 
them all excellent. A Pollenator Plum should be included in every group. 
SuDerior (^ee color cut, front cover). This sensational new 
• ^ Plum was originated at the Minnesota Fruit Breeding 
Farm and is considered the most perfect Plum of all fine Plums intro¬ 
duced by the station. Fruit very large, firm flesh, beautiful red color, and 
delicious quality. You can peel them as you would a 
Peach. We secured our propagating wood direct from 
the State Fruit Breeding Farm and can supply you with 
genuine SUPERIOR. Order early as the supply is limited. 
Monitor 
Monitor is one of the market Plums we 
have been looking for here in the North¬ 
west. It has high quality, firm flesh and a large size—some 
being more than 1% inches in diameter. It is very pro¬ 
ductive and a regular bearer. Season, late August. 
New Minnesota No. 83 
The new Plum originated at the Minne¬ 
sota Fruit Breeding Farm about which 
there have been so many fine reports. 
Professor W. H. Alderman, Chief, Di¬ 
vision of Horticulture, says, “Minnesota 
No. 83 is a late Plum of good size and 
has exceptionally fine dessert and canning qualities. It is 
yellow with attractive red blush. It has two valuable and 
outstanding characteristics; it hangs to the tree tenaciously 
even at full maturity, and after picking will keep in good 
condition for two or three weeks.” 
This late Plum together with the earlier varieties men¬ 
tioned above make a splendid assortment for the home or 
for market. Stock limited. Order early.

S plum, has a distinct and delicious quality 
unsurpassed for canning or for plum jam. While 
Kaga is not as large a plum as the other varieties, it

As mentioned above it is also indispensable as a 
pollenator. You will not be disappointed with Kaga.
