J. V. BAILEY NURSERIES 
PLUMS 
The 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 bearing the second year 
after setting. They are perfectly hardy in our climate and we have selected and propagated the follow¬ 
ing varieties which have shown exceptional qualities. 
Like Apples and Pears, Plum trees are very scarce this year, and our supply is very limited. We do 
not expect our assortment to be complete as the season advances so we urge you to order fruit trees 
early. 
EMBER (Minn. No. 83)—Fruit is large, yellow with red blush, (late [maturing, quality excel¬ 
lent. Keeps a long time after harvesting. 
FIEBING PRIZE—This is a comparatively recent introduction. It has proven itself to be of real 
value. Fruit is very firm and of excellent canning quality. Dark red, and ripens mid-season to late.
