BLACKBERRIES 



NEW BLACKBERRY INTRODUCTIONS GIVE PROMISE 





Selected a few years ago, supplies are now large enough to make them available to the planter. Try them this 



year for added profits. 



/> 



EBONY KING 



The sensational new, heavy bearing blackberry that is 

 proving superior to the older varieties because of its ability 

 to bear consistent heavy crops. Also contributing to the 

 popularity of this fine variety is the fact that non-bearing 

 plants are easily distinguished and may be removed from 

 the planting when necessary. Berries are large, glossy-black, 

 with very high dessert quality. Fruit is suitable for proces- 

 sing, home use, and for fresh fruit markets. Fruit ripens 

 early. Plants are thrifty and hardy. Plant Ebony King and 

 get in the blackberry business this year. 



NOTE: In recent years Blowers, Eldorado, and Alfred 

 blackberries have proven unfruitful. Because of this 

 we have dropped them and are now offering Bailey, Hed- 

 rick, and Ebony King which have generally proven good 

 producers. We highly recommend their trial in all areas. 



HEDRICK 



Introduced by the New York State Fruit Testing (Joopera 

 tive as a promising new blackberry warranting extensive 

 trial for home and market use. Plants are vigorous, pro- 

 ductive and hardy. The berries are large, medium firm with 

 no core. The flavor is subacid. Ripens in late July. 



BAILEY 



A new York State introduction of recent years which is 

 highly promising. Plants are vigorous, productive and hardy 

 The berries are somewhat larger than the Eldorado, moder- 

 ately firm, without core, subacid, and of good quality. Ri 

 pens in early August about one week later than Hedricl; 

 Seems to be the most promising introduction of recent years 

 for commercial production.

 Lavaca, Arkansas, resembling its parent most but having 

 higher production, larger berries, and more resistance to cold
