Tree fruits for Home anti Orchard 
PLUMS 
The plum may not be so important as 
some other fruits, but it is gaining in popu¬ 
larity every year and has been planted 
extensively the past few years. As it is a 
native fruit it grows easily and is a great 
bearer and should have a place in every 
orchard.
