DANIELS 
QUALITY PLUMS 
A few years ago—yes, very few—no 
one dreamed that fruits like these 
could be grown except on the Pacific 
coast. But now, thanks to clever plant 
wizards of our State Fruit Breeding 
Farm, these tested and proven plums 
are being grown successfully through- 
out the entire middle west, and any 
of us can enjoy the pleasure of step- 
ping into our own yard or orchard to 
pick our fill of these luscious plums 
of such intriguing flavor — right off 
the tree—bursting full of juice, vita- 
mins, and pep. 
Through the use of a proper assort- 
ment of varieties, such as we list, it is 
possible to have six, seven, yes even 
eight weeks of fresh plums from your 
own orchard—plums of such large size 
and tantalizing quality that no one 
can afford not to have them in their 
own orchards. 

Big as Hen’'s Eggs... .. Tree ripened 
quality right in your own yard! 
Good stock is the foundation of success in growing these plums, whether in a small home 
planting or a large commercial orchard. Daniels trees are good trees and everything that the 
word implies—true to name... well grown . 
. . large tops and roots... 
packed . . . guaranteed to bring you satisfaction. 
carefully handled and 
Plums need to be pollinated with pollen from some other plum variety if they are to produce 
satisfactory crops.

Minnesota's 
Two New “Super” Plums 
PIPESTONE—One of the most recent intro- 
ductions of the State Fruit Breeding Farm 
—it is rated by experts as one of the best 
of them all. Of good, red color it is one of 
the largest plums, early in season, high in 
quality, and a very heavy producer. An 
excellent canner. 
REDCOAT—Early. Another of the most re- 
cent University introductions. Tree is 
vigorous and highly productive. Fruit is 
medium sized, prune shaped, fully covered 
—a rich red, and entirely freestone. Prom- 
ises to become one of the most popular 
early varieties. Should be in every plum 
orchard. 
PLUM CULTURE 
Plums should be planted 20 x 25 ft. in com- 
mercial orchards, but for home gardens may 
be as close as 18 x 18 ft. They do best when 
cultivated until late summer, but in small prop- 
erties may be kept in the sod mulch system 
throughout the year if well fertilized. Annual 
pruning is desirable, removing crowding and 
older wood, maintaining a good supply of well 
spaced, young, and vigorous wood. A thorough 
spray program is essential. 
DANNY SAYS: 

EMBER—Mid-season, to late. The longest keep- 
er of them all. Skin yellowish with attractive 
red blush, high quality and heavy bearer. 
One of the best. 
KAHINTA—Large; heavy bearer. A hardy, reg- 
ular fruiter. One of the best South Dakota 
originations. 
MONITOR—Late mid-season. A large, high 
quality regular bearer. One of the earlier of: 
the University introductions but still one of 
the best. Has been bearing profitably in our 
orchards for 20 years. 
UNDERWOOD—tThe earliest and one of the best 
of them all. Large, rich red skin and firm 
juicy golden flesh. Excellent quality. 
WANETA—Considered the best of Professor 
Hansen’s South Dakota introductions. Very 
large. Red with bluish overcast. Excellent 
flavor. A heavy fruiter. 
POLLINIZERS (An Orchard Necessity) 
Certain varieties have proven themselves ex- 
cellent Pollinizers for the big Minnesota plums. 
Some pollinizers work better on certain vari- 
eties than others, so we suggest that the selec- 
tion of a pollinizer variety be left to us. Simply 
specify pollinizer on your order and we will 
select the best variety for your assortment. But 
don’t forget that proper pollinizers are essential 
to heaviest fruiting of the other plums. 
Crazy? No just PLUM crazy—and any one who 
grows these luscious big Minnesota plums is crazy 
about plums, too.
