PLUMS
The Plum is the great native tree fruit of this northern region and the improvement which the native varieties have made under cultivation makes it equal in importance to that of the apple.
In produetiveness the native plums are unsurpassed by any other class of plums or indeed by any tree fruit. In fact the tendency of nearly all varieties is to over-bear which however is easily overcome by judicious thining be- fore the fruit is developed. They are all very regular in bearing and a good crop may be expected each season if proper care is given to the tree. No other fruit tree in this or any other section of the country is more easy of culture, when once it is understood, than is the plum of native origin. Unlike the apple, these plums have been here in this clim- ate for hundreds of years and are so constituted in root, branch and fruit bud that the extremes of our seasons do not injure them. Thus the grower has only the matter of proper culture to contend with as the best varieties are; thoroly hardy. =o

Select Varieties of Americana Plums
There has sprung up a long list of native varieties and we present below those which have beenmore thoroly tested and found superior by actual commerical growers in the North. We have therefore eliminated from this list many varieties of real merit as we find the average planter prefers to order from a list restricted to the best varieties and thus varieties ‘“‘just as good’’ or ‘‘nos quite so good’’ are here dropped.
Aitkin. Has the most northern origin of any commer- cial plum and is also one of the very earliest to ripen, fully two weeks before DeSoto. Fruit large, greenish yellow, ground covered with brilliant red, turning to dark red when ripe. Suitable for the extreme North.
Bursoto. Said to be hybrid of Burbank and DeSoto.
Cheney. Fruit irregular, oval, medium to large. Seasonearly.
DeSoto. Probably the most grown of any plum of the Americana group. Productiveness almost too great; tree should be thinned to prevent overbearing and improve size of fruit. Season medium. Fruit medium; orange overlaid withecrimson; flesh vellowand firm; of fine flavor and quality.
Forest Garden. Fruit large, nearly round, dull pur- plish red with thin bloom; flesh yellow, sometimes reddish next to the stone; firm, sweet and of pleasant flavor; cling. Season medium.
Free Silver (Terry). Originated in northern Iowa. One of the largest and finest native plums that has been in-. troduced. Ripens very evenly.
Hawkeye. One of the largest and best plums grown in the Northwest. Fruit large, round, oval, thick skin that bears handling; color dull red over yellow; flesh yellow and of prime quality. Bears young and reported every- where as prolific and regular.
Krikon. Imported from Sweden in 1901. Is one of the few blue plums that can be successfully planted in southern Minnesota. The tree is upright and requires but little pruning. Branches low, well adapted to open localities. Fruit medium size; pit very small; skin thin; meat solid; very juicy and sweet.
Ocheda. A variety discovered and introduced by H. J. Ludlow, Worthington, Minn., (who was also the origin- ator of the of the famous Okabena apple.) Size medium; dull, finely mottled red with rather thick bloom; flesh rich yellow; sweet and rich in quality; skin medium thick and without harstness; stone semi-cling. Season medium.
Peach. One of the sweetest of all the Americana plums. Size medium; color dark red. Tree hardy; excellent grow- er. Season medium.
Rollingstone. Size medium to large, (overbears like DeSoto and should be thinned to secure large fruit.)
10 AHANKINSON NURSERY Co.,
Surprise Plum
Surprise. Fruit large to very large; skin medium, thick, tender; bright red; flesh pale yellow, meaty, fine flavor: quality extra good. Season medium. In our Opinion one of the very best for North Dakota.
Stoddard. Color pinkish red over yellow, with very small white dots and blushish bloom over all. Season medium early.
Wolf. No western native has actiha been more gen- erally commended than this. It is pronounced productive and regular in bearing from southern lowa and Nebraska to Stonewall, Manitoba, and appears to be generally satis- factory. Fruit round-oval, large; color crimson over orange, prettily dotted, with bluish bloom; flesh yellow and of good flavor and quality; stone perfectly free. Season medium. Tree beautiful and symmetrical; inclined to over- bear. Very popular in market.
Wyant. Fruit medium to large; color purplish red, inclining to orange on shaded side.

Compass Cherry
Probably no variety of stone fruit grown in the north- western states has attracted more attention than the Com- pass Cherry. It is a cross between the Sand Cherry and the native wild plum.
The Compass Cherry is absolutely hardy. All of our stock of this variety is grafted on hardy wild plum roots, thus making every tree ‘‘iron clad’’ in root and branch. (We wish here to warn planters that some grow- ers are selling Compass Cherry budded on peach roots and Myrobalan plum stock. Such trees are worthless in this climate. )
Fruiting Branch of Compass Cherry
Its early bearing is remarkable. A great many two year old trees as they stand in the nursery row are found with cherries on them and we hear constantly from buyers that many trees fruit well the same year they are set out.
In hybridization, the Compass largely lost much of that astringency near the skin so characteristic of the Sand Cherry. The amalgamation seems to have consider- ably developed the tender flesh and juiciness characteristic of the cherry. In shape, size and coloring of the fruit, the characteristics of the plum and cherry are about evenly. divided. When young and green the fruits have more the appearance of undeveloped plums, but as they mature they fill out and become more round like the cherry. In color it changes from green to a bright red, deepening as it be- comes ripe. For canning the Compass is valuable in this latitude, and when rightly preserved makes an excellent stock for pies, puddings, sauces, ete. While it fills a unique place in the north, where it stands today as the principal hardy fruit approaching the cherry, it is not to be compared with the well known commercial cherries grown in our eastern and central states.

Snyder. Also one of the best blackberries for market in the north and in hardiness second to none.
- DEWBERRIES
The Dewberry is a dwarf, trailing form of the Black- berry. Where itis grown successfully, the fruit of the Dewberry is highly prized on account of its low growing habit. It is easily covered for winter protection.
Lucretia. One of the most widely planted of the Dew- berries. It is a strong grower and exceeding productive.
Windom. This variety is the one mostly planted in the North Central States where it has proved to be the most hardy. ;
JUNEBERRIES

An improvement on this has now been made and we havea variety known asthe ‘‘Success’’ which main- tains the characteristic hardiness of the native variety and has a much larger and finer flavored fruit. Perfectly hardy; needs no protection or special treatment.
HORSE RADISH
This popular plant was introduced to this country from Great Britian at an early date and its cultivation forms an important industry in many sections too well known for further descriptions. We offer strong roots which should ..be planted in the spring.
HANKINSON, NORTH DAKOTA 19
STRAWBERRIES |
The Strawberry is perhaps the most popular small fruit cultivated in the North. As is well known, many of our best varieties have imperfect or sterile blossoms. For this reason, when planting such varieties it is necessary to alternate them with staminate or perfect varieties in order that the blooms may become fertilized. In the following list, the buyer will therefore find such varieties designated as either perfect or imperfect.
Bederwood—Perfect Niiller—Perfect Bubach—Imperfect Palmer—Perfect Ciyde—Perfect Ridgeway—Perfect Crescent—Imperfect Rough Rider—Perfect Enhance—Perfect Sample—Imperfect Haverland—Perfect Splendid—Perfect Jewell’s Improved—Perfect Warfield—Imperfect Lovett—Perfect Wolverton—Perfect
Senator Dunlap—Perfect. One of the great market berries. Has now been well tested and proven wonderfully prolific and profitable everywhere. Plant is a rampant runner and should be restricted. One of the best in dry seasons. Fruit medium to large, regular in form; color bright, beautiful red, glossy: exceptionally firm, making a splendid keeper and shipper. Quality first-class; ripens early and continues a long time. Mid-season.
RHUBARB
A valuable early spring vegetable, the use of which is universal. The following are the best varieties now in cultivation.
Excelsior. A long growing and tender variety, with tender skin. Especially valuable for preserving.
Linnzeus. One of the oldest and best known varieties; vigorous and productive.
ASPARAGUS
Conover’s Colossal. Is probably the best known as it is the oldest named variety under cultivation. It is still said to be the most reliable in some locations as it is very vigorous and keeps the bed full of strong shoots. .
Columbian Mammoth White. A distinct variety of mammoth size, great yield and superior quality. Remark- able for the clear whiteness of its stalk which retains the clearness of its color until several inches above the surface.
20 HANKINSON NURSERY CoO.,
DECIDUOUS TREES
Asto height, we have adopted the following elassification which
will give a fair idea of the comparative size of different species listed. Lg. Trees usually attaing a height of 50 feet or more at maturity. Med. Trees usually less than 50 and more than 25 feet at maturity. Sm. Trees commonly less than 25 feet at maturity.
ASH—Fraxinus
White Ash. (F. Americana). Lg. A well known tim- ber tree. It attains a large size and is of great value for timber. A good street tree in many sections, is a rapid grower. It produces a broad, round, head and has a straight clean trunk. While young, its foliage has a remarkably soft and mellow appearance.
Green Ash. (F. lanceolata). Lig. This species is of the greatest value in the prairie states of the Northwest. Altho not so tall a grower nor so rapid in growth, it is much hardier and better adapted to the extreme conditions of this section. Itis valuable for street planting as a shade tree and for all kinds of prairie timber culture. Somewhat resembles F. Americana. Grows very fast when young and before it produces seed, after which its growth is slower.
Weeping Cut Leaf Bireh
HANKINSON, NORTH DAKOTA 21
BIRCH—Betula
The Birches number among them some of our most beautiful and useful native trees. They are indispensable in park and lawn planting, and are also receiving more and more attention for street uses. Itis primarily a tree of the North; in fact, no trees grows farther North.

Forestry and Shelter-Belt Stock
The propagation of smallstock for forestry planters, and also those living on prairies where shelter belts are necessary, has always been an important part of our business. We can supply the leading varieties of both deciduous trees and evergreens that have been tried and found best adapted for these purposes.
Ages and Sizes. For the most intelligent filling of orders for this class of stock we have found it expedient to» grade all seedlings and stock grown from euttings according to height. We cansupnply in vari- ous ages, from one to three years in deciduous stock, and from two to ten years in evergreens. Among the deciduous varieties grown from seed. such as Ash, Box Elder, Maple, ete., we grade in regular sizes, running 12 to 18 in.;18 to 24 in. high, ete... and are prepared to furnish this stockin quantity. Among the evergreens we handle largely trans- planted stock ranging in size from 8 to 12in. up to 3 to4 ft.. We can also supply seedling stock 8 to 10 in. highin Arbor Vite, Balsam Fir. White Pine, Jack Pine and Black Spruce.
Space does not permit us here to enumerate the ay he ee of <oge. separate variety as adapted to the shelter belt.

We have restricted this list to the very bestand most vigorous vari- eties that are especially suited to the extreme North, ;
For convenience. the varieties are alphabetically arranged irrespec- tive of the class to which they belong. Each variety is keved as fol- lows; C. Climbing; H, P. Hybrid Perpetual; J. June; M, Moss; H. R. Hybrid Rugosa.
The Hybrid Perpetuals are the best varieties where a weaith of bloom in rose garden is desired. For hedge work or lawn grouping. the Rugosas and June roses are best adapted. The Moss and Brier roses are desirable for a number of purposes. All varieties marked’ C” are
the best sorts for porches, trellises and places where a climpjng rose is needed,
