A Petite prune tree on the place
of Mrs. T. Richardson, who lives a
mile east of Cottage Grove, is in
blooui, though it blossomed earlier
in the year and now has a crop of
fruit on it that is nearing maturity.
This iN quite unusual and is the
first time that Mrs. Richardson has
ever owned trees that produced
blossoms twice in one seusou. In
the old country second blossoming
is looked iqioii with u great deal of

that when trees bloom twice iu one
