Japanese Plum—Burbank 
PLUMS 
Annual sprayings with Bordeaux mixture keep 
away the leaf and fungus, and the thinning of too 
heavy crops of fruit prevents fruit rot. Plum trees 
are the best kind to set out in chicken yards; their 
full, rounded form furnishing abundant shade for 
the fowls. Set trees 16 to 20 feet apart.
