RED JUNE, the Coming Japan Plum.— After fruiting it four seasons, 
Red June proves to be WORTH MORR than all the other 3U-odd Japs we have 
fruitea put together. Large size, most beautiful red color, good quality, etc. 
But above and beyond all, very early and very ha dy in bud and blossom. 
Loaded down with magnificent plums this year when Abundance, Burbank, 
etc., in same orchard were a failure—killed iu bud. Ripens so early it also es¬ 
capes that other twin-enemy of the Japs—the fruit-rot. Ripe June 38; was 
ready to ship several days earlier; colors perfectly even if picked when just 
turning; doesn't drop; juicy, of good quality and a deltcioMS canning plum, with, 
as Pres. Berckman says, “ a Damson fiavor.” Tree very vigorous and hardy ; 
large orchard trees of Red June and Burbank are perfectly sound and healthy, 
while Abundance, Warn, etc., show injury from the severe winters, and Sat- 
suma, Berckman’s (Swt Botan), etc., are badly winter-killed. 
Four years ago 
we said, “ Red 
June seems 
without doubt 
the most valu- 
able market 
plum produced 
up to this time.” 
Read “ is ” for 
"seems” and 
you have our 
present opinion. 
Nor are we 
alone. We have 
many testimoni¬ 
als, but no need 
to add to these 
letters—received

Japanese plums. 
Luther Burbank, Cal , July 37, 1895: “Red June fruited well this season 
with me. It is very large, firm and handsome and the tree .a rapid 
grower I thiuk it a splendid market plum ” 
Prof. L. H. Bailey, Cornell Exp. Staiion, July 39, 1895: “Red .June is just 
now ripening with us. It is very much superior to Willard and is the bast 
early Jap I have seen.” Later: “We have just finished picking Red June 
and I am convinced that it is the best Japanese plum tesi^ed here next to 
Burbank.” Later, Prof Bailev writes us for “ Fifty l-year first-class trees of 
Red June, FOR MY OWN USE.” 
Pres’t P J. Berckmans, Ga., Sept. 5,1895: “There will be a big demand 
for Red June. I have for four years past advised our orchardists to plant 
it largely> but without avail; and now everybody asks for it. Mr. Rumph 
had 15,000 Abundance trees in bearing this year and made a handsome thing out 
of them, but if he had shipped Red June instead and FULLY 10 TO 15 
DAYS EARLIER, the returns would have been even larger.”
