PRUNUS spinosa x domestica ( Amygdalae eae ) , 32673. Plum. From 
Kozlov, Russia. "This has withstood our rigorous winters without any 
damage; it is a moderately fast grower, of good form, and bears fruits 
which ripen in early September. These are nearly white, of good size 
and most delicious in flavor, sweet and juicy." (W. A. Dana, Eau 
Claire, Wis., December 27, 1923.) 
stillingia sebifera (Euphorbiaceae ) , 47363. Tallow tree. From Pek- 
ing, China. "Too much can not be eaid for this beautifully symmetri- 
cal tree. The foliage is very ornamental, the tree grows rapidly, and 
is freer from insect pests than any other deciduous tree I know of." 
(Mrs. W. D. Diddell, Woodbine, Ga., January 4, 1924.)
