 and other good fruits will save doctor bills. Blackberries should be 

 planted in rows G 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 four feet in height.

THORNLESS 



YOUNGBERRY 



"We are glad to offer 

 ouj patrons a thornless 

 type of youngberry that 

 promises to entirely 

 take the place of the old 

 type of youngberry. It 

 ia a very vigorous grow- 

 er ; an abundant bearer 

 and equally as large or 

 larger in most cases with 

 the added advantage of 

 being able to harvest your berries with your bare hands 

 This variety is covered by U. S. Plant patent No. 4 and 

 therefore is sold only for planting. The youngberry is 

 becoming more and more popular and we believe every 

 producer of small fruits should have some of them.

DEWBERRIES 



The dewberry is a dwarf and trailing form of the 

 Blackberry. The fruit is highly prized as a market fruit 

 owing to its large size and fine quality. Set the plants 

 two feet apart in the row and cover in winter with 

 coarse litter. Should be mulched in the spring to keep 

 them off the ground.

RHUBARB 



MYATT'S LINNAEUS 



The market growers choice 

 Rhubarb is today proving one of 

 our most profitable truck crops. 

 Easy to grow it brings great 

 returns and no truck farm or 

 garden is complete without Rhu- 

 barb. 



Our stock seed plants are carefully selected and protected against cross polonization from inferior strains to 

 assure you of getting large, colored rhubarb from the plants we sell. 



Those who have never grown this variety, which is of superior quality, will hardly recognize the old "Pie 

 Plant". It is an early, tender variety, without being in the least tough or stringy, with a mild sub-acid flavor 

 and can be cut well into the summer. It leads in prices on our large commercial markets. We offer 2 grades one 

 year whole root plants this year which are ideal crowns to give quick lasting results.
