This drawing represents a young tree of Pond's Seedling, trained as a Pyramid, some seven years old, and infuUbearing. This is only one from among a plantation of over two hundred trees, many of which are quite as perfect as this one, and is merely intended to show this form of training, and call attention to its advantages and beauty, especially for Garden trees. We find that trees thus trained are much more easily protected against the attacks of the curculio and other insects, than the ordinary Standard. The Pond's Seedling is one of the largest and most beautiful of Plums, but only of medium quality.
