Niagara PI u m.—This plum, coniparativelv new, has become exceedingly popular through Western Xew York, where it originated. It is a very early plum and particularly valuable for this reason. It is a'red plum, large size, making an attrac- tive appearance in market, and possesses good shipping qualifi- cations. It bears enormous crops of fruit with great regu- larity. No one will be disappointed in planting the Xiagara plum, either for home use or for market. The tree is an upright grower, vigorous and healthy. I recently visited a plum grower in Xiagara county, who was shipping one" thousand baskets, daily, of the Xiagara plum. He informed me that it was bringing the highest price in the market and was a veritable gold mine to him. See price, page 16.

I can remember the plum trees which furnished such delectable fruit on the old farm homestead, where 1 was born fifty years ago. I remember today how those fat, yellow, juicv plums tasted to me as a boy> Remembering this and remembering that children enjoy such fruits far more than older people I have ever placed an abundance of fruit in their Shropshire Damson Plum.—This is the best of Damsons. These are smallish plums, produced in thick clusters or groups, almost hiding the branches from view. It is highly prized for can- ning and for preserving. The tree is not a rapid grower in the nurseries, is difficult to propagate, therefore trees are always in short supply, and cannot be sold
