WHY not plant some Plums which bear large crops the 
second year after 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 selection and adaptability. As for 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. 
5 to 6 ft., 45c each, express collect; 3 to 4 ft., (pre¬ 
paid) 30c each. 
The list that we offer are the choicest varieties for the 
home and commercial planting. 
APRICOT PLUM (Hanska Type). This variety has all 
the good qualities that a Plum should have, with an 
apricot flavor. The fruit is excellent for eating from the 
tree, canning, preserving or making jelly. The luscious 
fruit is reddish blue. Tree strong grower, a six-year-old 
tree measuring thirty feet high and twenty feet across, 
making a stronger growth than any other Plum. A good 
shipper. Freestone. Season August. 
SAPA (Hansen). July. An extremely early, vigorous 
bearer. Fruit medium size, glossy black; flesh deep 
reddish purple, excellent flavor; skin very tender. 
TERRY (Native). August. Best of the Natives. Fruit 
very large, of bright red color and fine quality. One of 
the largest and most handsome hardy Plums yet produced 
and which deserves extensive planting. Fruit ripens 
evenly and is a good keeper. 
WANETA (Hansen). July. The fruit is of immense size, 
deep bright red; skin very thin, and the flavor is delicious. 
Prof. Hansen’s best Plum, and in fact, one of the greatest 
of all Plums. 
GOLDENROD. Tree is tall, vigorous, upright in form, 
hardy, productive; fruit medium to large in size, round, 
clear yellow. Flesh firm, moderately juicy, moderately 
sweet; fair to good in quality, stone medium in size, cling. 
Season last of August. The most beautiful of all yellow 
Plums. 
UNDERWOOD. This is the earliest of the large new 
Plums. Ripens from about August 1st to 15th, and 
attains a size of 1 % inches. The tree is one of the strong¬ 
est growers of all these new Plums and gets to be very 
large, furnishing a large bearing surface to produce 
wonderful crops of beautiful fruit. Fruit is very attrac¬ 
tive; red, firm, juicy flesh, very small pit, freestone. 
Splendid quality. 
Elliott 
ELLIOTT—Peach Plum 
A very large, yellow fleshed perfect freestone 
plum. Very sweet and of a fine peach flavor. 
Requires only half the usual amount of sugar 
for canning. Does not rot on the trees. Our 
orchard bore an immense crop last year in 
spite of the drought and heat and has never 
failed. This plum is in a class by itself. Sea¬ 
son early August. Color orange yellow 
splashed with red. Our stock is limited. 3 to 
4 ft., 35c each.
