HANSEN’S BUSH CHERRIES. The new quick 
bearing cherry, easy to grow, sure to produce. 
Highly productive, good flavor. Hardy everywhere. 
Hansen’s Bush Cherries are the result of nearly 
40 years of untiring selection work by the great 
plant wizard, Prof. N. E. Hansen of South Dakota 
State College at Brookings. Plant these Hansen 
bush cherries because they are easy to grow and 
are perfectly hardy everywhere, are good to eat, 
fresh and make delicious preserves. Eear early, 
heavily, and annually; are dwarf growing, bushy, 
and take up little room, excellent for hedges and 
ornamental shrubs.

OKA CHERRY-PLUM. Pronounced by Prof. 
Hansen the greatest of all his plum-cherry crosses. 
It bears extremely early, is a dwarf, bushy grow¬ 
er, and is covered from the ground up with dark, 
rich, purplish red fruit of the very best quality. 
Be sure to find a place in your planting for some 
Oka Cherry. 
SAPA. A very fine, perfectly hardy, new plum. 
Color, dark purplish skin; deep purplish-red 
flesh; early and abundant bearer. 
OPATA. Plum cherry cross. Indian name for 
“bouquet.” When covered in the spring with a 
gorgeous mass of fragrant white bloom it is in¬ 
deed a bouquet, and again when the branches are 
bent with their load of dark red fruit. Good 
quality. Ripe last of May and first of June. 
The larger trees bear the first year. If you 
want ripe fruit in your orchard in 5 or 6 months 
after planting, plant Opata.
