reliable producers known. Should be in all home and commercial plantings. Red. Midseason. 
Bed Wing 
RED WING —Peel ’em, flip out the pit and slice for 
cream and sugar! That is what folks who really 
know the high quality of a tree ripened Red Wing do. 
Red Wing is one of the largest of the plums; early 
fruiting. A heavy and regular bearer and so hardy 
that they are being successfully fruited as far North 
as Winnipeg. A really valuable plum that should be 
in every orchard. Red. Pree stone and midseason. 
SUPERIOR —Of alL the plums yet introduced by the 
State Fruit Breeding Farm, Superior is the largest. 
It is also one of the heaviest bearing plum varieties 
known. In its flavor, color, texture, size and produc¬ 
tivity, it has proven itself worthy of its name— 
Superior. It has also shown itself a splendid pollen- 
izer for several of the other varieties. Generally 
conceded to be one of the best plums yet introduced 
by the University. 
There will not be enough of this wonderful new sort 
to go around this year, so we suggest placing your 
order as early as possible. 
MONITOR —If blue ribbons were being passed out Monitor would be sure of three, yes, 
four. One for vigorous, strong growing tree; one for heavy production, another for being 
an excellent shipper and still another for delicious quality. 
Monitor’s large size, splendidly formed tree deserves a place in every home orchard. 
Because of its regular heavy production and the splendid keeping and shipping quality of 
its fruits, it is an outstanding favorite in the commercial planting. Splendid quality. A 
fine tree, a fine fruit, a fine seller. Red, slightly russeted. 
Late. Mid-season. 
ELLIOT —It would be hard to improve on Elliot for a late 
plum. The fruit is large and an attractive bright, clear red 
color. The flavor is pleasant and the quality good. The 
pit is free or nearly so. 
The fruit stands up well after harvest—an important mar¬ 
ket point. The tree is a vigorous grower of moderate size, 
very hardy and heavy, regular producer. No home or com¬ 
mercial planting is complete without Elliot. Red. Free¬ 
stone. Late.
