Daniels Quality Plums 
The new Minnesota plums are conceded to 
be the finest race of plums ever developed 
for the Northwest. They are large, high qual¬ 
ity and unexcelled for home use or for mar¬ 
ket. 
Through the use of a proper assortment of 
varieties, such as we list, it is possible to have 
six, seven, yes even eight weeks of fresh 
plums from your own orchard,—plums of 
such large size and tantalizing quality that no 
one can afford not to have them in their 
own orchards. 
Thsee trees are vigorous growers and when prop¬ 
erly pollenaled, produce tremendous crops. However, 
each variety must be properly “mated” with the 
correct pollenizer if it is to yield abundantly. The 
State University has figured out the best combina¬ 
tions with these pollenizers. As we have this infor¬ 
mation available we suggest that you leave the selec¬ 
tion of pollenizers to us. In ordering pollenizers for 
existing orchards be sure to tell us what varieties 
you have and we will make up a correct assortment 
for you. There should be one pollenizer to every two 
or three plums in small orchards and one to every 
six or eight in large plantings. 
Good stock is the foundation of success in growing these plums, whether in a small home planting 
or a large commercial orchard. Daniels trees are good trees and everything that the word implies— 
true to name,—well grown—large tops and roots—carefully handled and packed—guaranteed to 
bring you satisfaction.

EMBER 
Ember has probably aroused more favor¬ 
able comment in recent years than any other 
plum origination of our State Fruit Breeding 
Farm. In describing it Professor W. H. Al¬ 
derman says, “Ember is a late plum of good 
size and has exceptionally fine dessert and 
canning qualities. It is yellow with attractive 
red blush. It has two valuable and outstand¬ 
ing characteristics: It hangs to the tree ten¬ 
aciously even at full maturity, and after pick¬ 
ing will keep in good condition for two or 
three weeks.” 
Its high eating and cooking quality, its good 
size and color, its ability to “stick” to the 
tree through all conditions, coupled with the 
fact that it can be kept for two or three weeks 
after picking, makes this the one plum that 
should be planted freely in every home or 
commercial orchard. Stocks limited so please 
order early. 
UNDERWOOD- -The best of them all—if one 
plum can be so singled out. Very early. Large 
size and entirely hardy. Rich, red skin and 
firm, juicy, golden flesh. It’ss unsurpassed 
flavor has made Underwood an outstanding 
favorite with everyone. Extreme hardiness is 
one of the crowning virtues of its splendidly 
formed, well branched, “clean cut” looking 
tree. Commercial growers find this the most 
profitable of all the plums for it brings the 
highest prices of the entire plum season. 
TONKA —For heavy early bearing no plum tree 
can beat Tonka. Large two year old trees fre¬ 
quently bear in the nursery row. In describ-

"KEEPING" PLUM 
Ember 
ing this variety. Prof. W. H. Alderman, of 
University Farm, says: “The large, round, at¬ 
tractive colored fruits are not only firm 
fleshed and excellent shippers but are marked 
by delicious quality as well.” 
The fruit is large and an attractive bright 
red color. The pit is small and ,being entirely 
free stone, is easily removed, an excellent 
point in canning. The flavor is sweet and the 
quality good. The tree is hardy, of medium 
size, vigorous and one of the heaviest and 
most reliable producers know. Should be in 
all home and commercial plantings. Red. Mid¬ 
season.
