JUMBO PLUMS from ANDREWS 
New Dietz Prune 
It was not until just a few years ago that we were convinced that a 
true prune could be grown in this section of the United States. 
Through the introduction of the Dietz prune from Southern Russia 
comes an entirely new type of fruit for our gardeners and orchardists. 

The Dietz prune is especially sweet, it has an intense black color with 
a heavy blue bloom. 
The fruit is about five-eighths of an inch in diameter and one inch long. 
The tree produces a heavy crop of fruit borne all along the limbs. 
The fruit is good to eat and especially fine for sauce. 
The tree is absolutely hardy and will grow almost anywhere in this 
country. Stock very limited this year. 
PLUM POLLINIZERS 
Pollinizer plums are essential for success in raising plums. Be sure to include some 
Kaga apricot-plums or South Dakota No. 27 plums in every group of jumbo plums. 
If you now have a group of plums not fruiting well, you should add some Kaga to the 
group this spring. 
Kaga and South Dakota No. 27, described below, have proven to be the best pol- 
linizers and in addition are excellent plums themselves. 
SOUTH DAKOTA No. 27 Phis plum is proving 
out to be one of the 
best pollinizers for the big hybrid plums above. This South 
Dakota No. 27 is a good plum in its own right, but is doubly 
valuable because of its ability to make other plums bear. It’s 
a large red and yellow plum of very high quality either eaten 
out of hand or when canned. Be sure to include South Dakota 
No. 27 in your planting. 



















KAGA (Apricot-Plum.) It is 
one of the most positive 
pollinizers for the jumbo plums or 
for common plums. Besides, it has 
a delicious and distinct quality un- 
surpassed by any other plum. Kaga 
is especially fine for canning or for 
plum jam; in fact, is conceded to be 
at the top of the list for this pur- 
pose. Commercial growers are re- 
ceiving repeat orders for “the apri-

MT. ROYAL BLUE 
PLUM 
Hardy in Minnesota or 
Manitoba, Canada 
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 dis- 
tant lands. The Mt. Royal is 
one of a large number of Euro- 
pean plums which have been 
tested for hardiness, productiv- 
ity, and quality in the past 10 
years in Minnesota and Mani- 
toba, Canada. Mt. Royal stood 
the test and is now recommend- 
ed 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 espe- 
cially valuable for preserving 
and for jam. This makes a wel- 
come addition for your Victory 
Garden and one less fruit to 
buy at the grocer’s.
