RASPBERRIES— PINK VARIETIES. 



Cardinal. — Berries are of great size, purplish-crimson in color, exceed- 

 ingly firm, rich and sprightly, with full raspberry flavor. Of special value 

 for canning. It propogates from tips like the Black Caps; the canes are ex- 

 tremely large and vigorous growers and immensely productive; ripens in 

 mid-season; good for home use for canning and profitable for market 

 where there is a demand for it. 



Columbian. — The Columbian is a vigorous grower, with large fruiting 

 canes, fully as large as the Shaffer, which is the most rampant grower and 

 prolific yielder we have yet seen and the fruit is the largest grown. In 

 quality it is an improvement on the Shaffer, being sweeter when ripe and 

 of higher flavor. We have planted it on several soils and in each instance

it is a wonder of productiveness. Twenty-five plants of this variety will 

 furnish fruit enough for a large family through the season, besides you 

 will have a great plenty for canning purposes; grown largely for canning 

 and drying; ripens late in the season. 



Shaffer's Colossal. — The canes are strong, hardy and productive of 

 large, handsome fruit, the last of the berries even larger than the first. It 

 is a valuable addition to the cap family and especially valuable for pre 

 serving; ripens late. 



RASPBERRIES— YELLOW VARIETIES. 



Caroline. — A seedling from the old Brinkle's Orange which was of 

 foreign parentage and too tender for our climate. The canes of Caroline 

 are moderately good growers, exceedingly productive, the fruit fair in 

 size, rather soft and crumbly, color pale salmon, sub-acid and fair in 

 quality; valuable only for home use.
