The Erskine Park Everbearing Red Raspberry 





"Till' l)<'sscrt lirrrv of the \atii>it" 



was (liscoverc'd on llie Westmghouse Estate (Er- 

 skine Park.) at Lee, Mass., by Mr. Edward Norman. 

 This magnificent estate is in the midst of the beau- 

 tiful Berkshire Hills, with a temperature in winter 

 of 30 or 40 degrees below zero, so that the hardi- 

 ness of this berry is unquestioned. The estate is 

 surrounded by the summer homes of many wealthy 

 people, and much to the surprise of his neighbor 

 gardeners and not without a deal of personal satis- 

 faction, Mr. Norman furnished large, luscious rasp- 

 berries throughout the fall for various dinner 

 parties. 



These berries are commented on by all who have 

 seen and tasted them as the most delicious and best 

 raspberry they ever have eaten. Mr. Baker, of 

 Hoosick Falls, N. Y., writes us as follows: 



"III tlic- season of tOlO Mr. Genrnc M. Dnrrow. of tlu' 



i nitpd States Depai'ttnent of ,\f:i-ii-nUnrp. was travollii?: 



I loiLl tile .\tlantie to tile Paeifie. visitiiiL: fniit growers to 



ititain information on berries for linlletins pulilislied by the 



ilepartllient of .Vijrielllture. Mr. Harrow llafl visited this 



■ ■.ifate liefore. and was mo.st favoralily impressed that this 



herry was far aliead of the St. Re^is and Ranere. and when 



it became linown it would replace tiiese varieties. Tlie 



plant is by far Uio sti-ongest growing raspberry I have ever 



seen. It branehes lilte a tree, and it also has the largest 



and most roots of any variety ivitli which I am acquainted. 



It is perfectly hardy and the la-rries are very large." 



Conceive tlie joy and satisfaction of having such berries on 



your tabic all through the Autumn, a source of wonder to 



your neighbors, that vou can pick tlic finest raspberries until 



the snow flics. On November 20th we cut a large branch of 



the Erskine Park with blossoms, green berries and r!l>c fruit
