NOTES ON VARIETIES. 



Gladstone. — The bushes bore little fruit and that was small and imper- 

 fect. Last season it promised well. Needs further trial. 



Royal Church. — The bushes are hardy, vigorous, and productive. The 

 berry is of handsome appearance and high quality, but falls to pieces 

 easily. 



Hansell and Michigan Early are good early varieties, and Marlboro, 

 although a failure in some sections, is all that can be desired in others. 



Cuthbert is the leading market sort and as yet has no equal as a late red 

 raspberry for market purposes. 



Golden Queen for home use is worthy of a place. It resembles Cuthbert 

 in plant, but the berries are of superior quality and of a yellow color.
