IF any one has had doubts as to the vigor, hardiness and productiveness of the Japan Plums, the season of 1896 has settled these! Here in Connecticut, where the peach crop was practically a total failure, the Japan Plums gave partial crops on many trees, while others were full to bending with luscious fruit, all the more acceptable on account of the scarcity of peaches and other species of Plums. From Indiana equally favorable reports are sent out, and from cold Iowa, where only very hardy fruits can be depended on, comes word of superb crops of Burbank's Japan Plums. From the experimental grounds of The Rural New-Yorker we ihfi report of six varieties of Japans all making a fine growth, HALE best of all; not in the least hurt by frosts, while all the peach trees were more or less killed back.
