considerable promise for the north.” One of Dr. Hansen’s 
productions. Very good at Mandan. 8 to 4 ft., each, $1.30. 
DURA. The Dominion authorities 
have so named the fine P-4A-18 - 
Sapa seedling in recognition of its 
long lasting qualities after it is 
ripe. A beautiful fruit; bears tre- 
mendous crops of large mottled 
plums with rich dark purple flesh 
and very small pits. A week or

nus nigra blood. Large, quality 
good. Extremely hardy. 3 to 4 ft.,

UNDERWOOD. Many of the Minnesota plums are not adapted to 
the Great Plains. Long trials of Underwood, however, have suf- 
ficed to prove its hardiness. In flavor it equals the Japanese 
plums, size is intermediate, trees strong and thrifty and bear 
annually. Fruit is dark red and sweet, ripens in late August, 
and isan excellent keeper, 3 to 4 ft., each, $1.20; 5 for $5.00.

mendation of Mr. J. H. Gerbracht, and which he has grown for 
many years, is the best adapted to western Plains conditions of 
any of the really high quality sorts. 3 to 4 ft., each, $1.25. : 
WANETA. Apparently the hardiest of the extra large size plums. The largest of Dr. Hansen’ $ pro- 
ductions. A heavy bearer of very large, good quality 
fruit. Very drouth resistant. Ripens in midseason. The 
best large plum for the Great Plains. 8 to 4 ft., each, 
$1.20.

SCOUT. The Canadian extra hardy apricot, fair sized and
