LATHAM (Red) 



Leads all Red Raspberries in Commercial Planting 

 and Profits to the Grower 



The new mosaic free, hardy red raspberry. Without ques- 

 tion Latham is the most profitable Red Raspberry for com- 

 mercial planting-. It is absolutely hardy. It cannot be sur- 

 passed in productiveness, out-yielding even Cuthbert. Due 

 to its rich brilliant red color it sells readily on market 

 stands, and in addition is a delightful table berry and al- 

 most perfect for canning. The berries are large, round and 

 unusually firm, exceptionally well suited for shipping to 

 distant markets. It ripens evenly over a long season. 



We have some of the finest 

 grown this year.

SUNRISE 



(The New Red Raspberry) 

 Combining Earliness — Hardiness — Quality 



This new berry is said to ripen 10 to 16 days earlier than 

 Latham. Its size is intermediate between Ranere and Lath- 

 am, but nearer the size of Latham. 



It has been very resistant to anthrancnose, leaf spot, cane 

 blight, and the resistance shown is probably one of the im- 

 portant factors in its ability to withstand low temperatures. 



The color is bright red but turns dark red on ripening — 

 the berries pick easily. They are firm, fine textured, juicy, 

 non-crumbly, sub-acid in flavor with good raspberry aroma, 

 and better in quality than Latham and better than Ranere 

 under some circumstances. 



We recommend SUNRISE for trial in all sections where 

 Red Raspberries do well. Sunrise is replacing Chief in many 

 home and commercial plantings.

PLEASE NOTE 

 Our raspberry plants are dug early while dormant. The 

 Black types are put in OUR OWN COLD STORAGE 

 where they are kept with proper moisture at about 34 

 degrees F. The Red types are placed in this storage 

 about April 1st. Our years of experience in handling of 

 raspberry plants of both types and our modern storage 

 enable us to offer our customers today PLANTS WHICH 

 WE KNOW WILL GIVE THEM BETTER SATIS- 

 FACTION IN EVERY WAY.

Taylor Red Raspberry 



DISEASE RESISTANT — HIGH QUALITY 

 HEAVY PRODUCTION 



Recommended To Precede Latham 



Introduced by N. Y. Experimental Station fall season of 

 1935. This beautiful berry should have the consideration of 

 every commercial raspberry grower. 



The plants are vigorous, hardy, productive, tall growing 

 and make new plants rapidly. The sturdy canes hold the 

 berries well off the ground. The berries ripen shortly before 

 Latham, are large, long conic, bright attractive red, thick 

 fleshed, very firm, sub-acid and of excellent quality being 

 superior to Latham. The berries do not cling to the bush 

 and carry well to markets. 



Everbearing Red Raspberries 

 INDIAN SUMMER 



SENSATIONAL EVERBEARING 

 RED RASPBERRY 



Finest of all everbearing types yet introduced, bear- 

 ing two crops a year. 



High Quality — Early Season — Heavier Fruiting 

 — Hardier — More Disease Resistant. 



More satisfactory every year as fruited over a wider area. 

 Many growers planting Indian Summer for one crop variety 

 due to its unusual vigor and productivity. 



Introduced by the N. Y. Experimental Station, who state: 

 "Indian Summer, the first autumn variety of any merit that 

 has fruited at this Station, is a distinct type wholly unlike 

 and much superior to known varieties. The quality is good 

 and tiie season very early, starting a day or two later than 

 June varieties. The fall crop commences in mid- September, 

 continuing until stopped by hard freezes in November. The 

 bulk of the crop is borne in October." The plants are above 

 medium to tall, vigorous, upright, hardy, healthy, productive. 

 Fruit is large and uniform, maintaining size throughout the 

 season. Roundish-conic in shape, cavity of medium size. 

 smooth light bloom, color medium red. juicy, tender, mild 

 sub-acid, good. 



From our observations and personal tests we can recom- 

 mend trial planting in all sections from South Carolina to 

 Canada, feeling that lovers of Red Raspberries will find the 

 best in this variety.
