Fine, Strong*, Well Grown Plants, No. 1: 

 25 for $1.25; $2.50 per 100; $20.00 per 1000. 



A ready market can always be found for raspberries. When 

 well cared for they are sure to return a good profit. A patch 

 of raspberries should be renewed about once in five years, as 

 by that time the quality of the berries deteriorates and the 

 fruit becomes small. The plants should be well manured and 

 cultivated at frequent intervals. In training allow only a few 

 canes to grow from each plant, cutting away all suckers to 

 throw the strength into the stalk for bearing; all old canes 

 should be removed immediately after the fruit is all picked. 

 Cut out old and weak shoots each year.

 quality, firm, juicy and refreshing, vigorous grower, hardy 

 and productive; very popular as a home garden and market 

 berry.

 grower, and very productive; ripens early; considered one of

Blackberries 



Blackberries are among the best known and most 

 valued of our berries. No fruit of any kind is more 

 wholesome. A liberal use of berries and other good 

 fruits will save doctor bills. Blackberries should be 

 planted in rows 6 to 7 feet apart, 3 to 4 feet in the 

 row. Keep the ground light, rich and clean, and 

 pinch the canes back when they have reached 4 feet 

 in height.
