. Hale's fruits for 1901. Nursery stock Connecticut South Glastonbury Catalogs; Fruit trees Seedlings Catalogs; Fruit Catalogs. Plums that Pay 12 J. H. HALE, SOUTH GLASTONBURY, Strong, upright-growing tree; very productive; fruit large, obtusely conical; skin golden yellow, with slight blush—a beauty ; tlesh firm, meaty, yellow, of high quality ; small pit. Ripens with or just after Abundance, and is the most valuable of the yellow varieties. August 10 to 15. Tree of great vigor, with a broad, sprawling habit; Without thinning the fruit is the however, as it usually BURbANK needs close pruning, largest of the older varieties : sets too much fruit, it should be thinned for best results. Fruit when well grown is 5 to 6 inches in circumference, nearly globular, often a little lop-sided; color cherry red, with yellow spots; flesh deep yellow, very firm and meaty, not quite so sweet as Abundance. Its firm- ness makes it a good keeper, grand to ship; fine for family or market. Season here August 20 to September 1. Especially valuable all through the north and west. Strongest and most beautiful of all in growth, and, on this account, ===========:== does not come into full fruitage quite so early as most varieties. Productive of large, round-cordate, pale yellow Plums, splashed and doited red on sunny side. Flesh yellow, tender, melting, sweet, delicious ; by all odds the best in quality of any Japanese Plum known. Equal to Imperial Gage or the very best European varieties. Season varies from a little later than Abundance to almost as late as Satsuma. HALE. HALE PLUM.
