ANDREWS PURPLE CAPS-PLUMS 
Mt. Royal Blue Plum 
Hardy in Minnesota or Manitoba, Canada 
i 
You may now grow Blue Plums in your “own back yard” or orchard. You 
no longer have to depend on getting them from the grocer, shipped in from 
distant lands. 
The Mt. Royal is one of a large number of European Plums which have 
been tested for hardiness, productivity, and quality in the past 10 years in 
Minnesota and Manitoba, Canada. Mt. Royal stood the test and is now recom- 
mended for planting even in this rigorous climate. 
The trees are immensely productive and are apparently self-fertile. The 
fruit is a beautiful blue and is especially valuable for preserving and for jam. 
This makes a welcome addition for your Victory Garden and one less fruit 
to buy at the grocer’s.

A new Purplecap originated by the New York 




Experiment Station. It is extremely vigorous, hardy 
and drought resistant. In our experi- 
mental plots Sodus has surpassed all 
others in growth of cane and in pro- 
duction. The berries are large, firm, 
medium purple in color, sprightly 
and good in quality. It ripens short- 
ly after Latham. Sodus is an ex- 
ceptionally heavy producer and is 
proving out to be the most depend- 
able and profitable of all Purple- 
caps. It does not require winter 
protection in Minnesota. 
Sodus is no longer in the experi: 
y mental stage. We secured our 
propagating stock direct from the 
New York Experimental Station 
nearly 10 years ago. It has not failed 
to produce fruit any year since. 
Our experience shows Sodus to be 
the most dependable of all purple- 
caps or blackcaps. Prices, on page
