THE NEW PARSON 
SWEET ITALIAN PRUNE 
(Patent Apphed for ) 
TESTED AND PROVEN 
Order Early—Avoid Disappointment 
NEW PARSON SWEET PRUNE 
This new prune has been nurtured for 
several years under test conditions and 
has proven superior in many respects to 
other varieties. It is hardy against un- 
favorable weather conditions and bears 
at an early age. The fruit dries heavily 
without drip or run and remains the same 
for long periods of time. Although of re- 
markable sugar content, dried fruit does 
not whiten with sugar rising to the surface. 
Laboratory analysis rates Parson Sweet 
Prune with 50.7% sugar content, com- 
pared with 41.0% for other Italian prunes. 
Mild sweet flavor makes it a possibility 
or special holiday gift packs. Because of 
the high sugar content, additional sugar 
for cooking or canning is unnecessary. 
Fruit is ready for picking 10 to 12 days ahead of the 
Italian. Heavy bearing quality is noteworthy, even on 
new branch growths. An outstanding prune, a good 
shipper.
