Americans Best Plums 
Omaha Mid-season. See Natural Color 
Illustration Above. The finest 
“Iron-clad hardy” red plum, wonderful 
hardiness and thriftiness of tree, size, qual¬ 
ity and beauty of fruit. Omaha originated in 
Nebraska and introduced by us. Our propa¬ 
gation is from the best tree propagated direct 
from original tree. Large, dark red plum 
with small pit, meaty yellow flesh, sweet and 
delicious. The plum for the far north and 
everywhere. In our own orchards, Omaha, 
Gold and America and the New Burbank Creations 
rank at top. "Winter worst for 13 years. Omaha 
came through smiling 100% alive.”—F. J. Colby, 
New Hampshire.

uad Burbank production 
that won the Gold Medal at the Lewis and 
Clark Exposition. One of the largest, most 
beautiful, most luscious of all cling plums. 
Glorious dark crimson color, immense size, 
almost round, strong skin, holds up and 
ships perfectly. We propagate from a tree with a 
great bearing record. 
Shropshire Damson w^^eiy 
known and largely planted. Trees are good 
croppers but the fruit is some smaller than Stark 
Damson. Our propagation is from a heavy RECORD 
BEARING tree. Trees bear enormous crops. 
^ _1 J (Trade-Mark). Our $3,000 — Mid- 
season plum. Originated by Luther 
Burbank and introduced by us many years 
ago and it has made more friends among 
plum growers than any other plum ever in¬ 
troduced. Fruit is very large, clear semi¬ 
transparent golden yellow, later overspread 
with bright carmine blush. When fully ripe, 
a light transparent cherry red. Healthy and 
hardy tree succeeds wonderfully in chicken 
yards and on moderately dry, thin clay soils. 
We propagate from a heavy Record-Bearing strain.
