Northern PLUMS 
Backed by 70 Years Plum Growing Experience 
Plums have been a Gurney specialty 
for over 70 years. We offer you a com- 
plete line of plums, each one the best 
of its kind. All are budd 
plum seedlings—not on peach. (Be- 
ware of southern plum trees for the 
_ northwest because many 
_ budded on peach stock.) 
Plums are extra-hardy. They include 
: _T of the hardy Hansen plums: Waneta, 
Opata, Oka, Sapa, Kaga, South Dakota 
and Tecumseh. Mt. Royal is of Cana- 
dian origination. Underwood and Su- 
perior are Minnesota varieties. 
Set 18 ft. apart. 130 to the acre. 
And don’t forget that th 
produce a lot of delicious fruit but 
make beautiful decorative trees for 
the yard.

-GURNEY’S DELUXE GRADE 
of Apple—Pear—Plum—Cherry 
Gurney’s DeLuxe Grade of fruit 
trees is for those people who realize 
that the purchase of a fruit tree is, if 
properly made, a very enjoyable and 
profitable investment. 
When these DeLuxe trees are 
graded, we use only the very finest of 
the 5- to 7-foot size on all fruits, ex- 
cepting pie cherries, where the height 
~ owes because they do not grow so 
Every single DeLuxe Grade fruit 
tree you receive has been carefully 
selected, is a jumbo size and a perfect 
specimen that will come into bearing 
early. : 
The “Cream of The Crop’’ 
Every one of these DeLuxe trees is 
well branched, with a straight trunk 
and an extra-heavy root system. The 
pruning points are plainly marked 
with white paint. There is a white 
ring around the base of the tree to 
clearly show the proper planting 
depth. 
Complete planting instructions are 
attached to each tree to make sue- 
cessful planting easier for you. 
UARANTEED ONE YEAR 
Every Gurney DeLuxe Grade fruit tree is guaranteed to be growing 
vigorously one year from planting or will be replaced absolutely free.

Why ALL Gurney’s NoRTHERN-GROWN 
Nursery Stock Will Do Better for You 
“Whole Root’’ Buds for 
Your Protection 
It takes a heavy root to produce a 
sturdy tree. Gurney’s “whole root” 
bud all fruit trees. Only a sturdy, 
hardy root can survive our hot, dry 
summers and cold winters. “WHOLE 
ROOT” budded fruit trees can’t be 
beat. 
Hardy Anywhere 
North, South, East or West, Gur- 
ney’s fruit trees adapt themselves 
quickly. If they grow well under ad- 
verse conditions, they will do even 
better in milder climates. Select va- 
rieties recommended for your local- 
ity. Then you know you are getting 
stock adapted to your conditions. 
Gurney’s 
“Budded’” 
This is the type of 
Common 
Fruit Graft 
This is an ordinary 
fruit graft, the kind 
you see so often and 
that often doesn’t sur- 
vive. Compare it with 
the heavily rooted Gur- 
ney bud opposite, 
heavily rooted fruit 
trees you get at Gur- 
ney’s. Notice how the 
entire seedling root is 
“budded’’ to the va- 
riety wanted, 
True-To-Name Trees 
Nothing is more disappointing than 
to buy and raise a fruit tree only to 
find out it bears the wrong kind of 
fruit. 
That won’t happen at Gurney’s. Ex- 
perts are constantly checking. All 
trees go through many inspections to 
assure you of only perfectly-graded, 
healthy trees; and more important, 
that you get exactly what you order. 
Remember, when you plant a Gurney 
fruit tree, you are planting for years 
to come. Gurney’s GUARANTEE 
their fruit trees to be true-to-name or 
replaced FREE OF CHARGE. 
Plant Early 
We have always preached early 
planting—and we still do. Early plant- 
ing means the stock gets established 
before the hot, dry, summer months. 
Yes, early planting means success. 
Remember, you can’t plant early if 
you don’t order early. Don’t wait until” 
the last minute but send in your order 
well in advance of the planting sea- 
son. 15
