RED RASPBERRIES 
The Red Raspberries fill in very 
nicely on the small fruit farm. 
Coming into bearing just after the 
Strawberry crop is over, and be- 
fore the Black caps start, they are 
very easily grown. With rather 
stiff land their home, where they 
will produce great quantities of 
berries the following summer after 
set. Plants should be set 3 feet in 
the row, spacing the rows 6 feet 
apart, where they may be allowed 
to make a hedgeliké growth, pro- 
ducing more fruit each year as the 
new canes form. One setting is 
good for several years.

New Varieties 
THE CHIEF (New Introduction). Origi- 
Pie ieee ae NALCO). ID \emvD Cre VelnILeS Ona 
State Fruit Breeding Farm, being a _ selection 
from among 4,000 seedlings of the Latham. It 
possesses many of the good qualities of the 
Latham, some of them to even a greater degree 
than the parent. The main point of difference 
being in season of ripening, CHIEF IS TEN TO 
TWELVE DAYS EARLIER TO RIPEN than 
Latham, thus giving us a profitable berry for 
early market. Close inspection work has found 
the Chief so resistant to mosaic that fruit grow- 
ers can plant this variety and be sure of having 
healthy plants. It is also free from mildew and 
other diseases, making it an outstanding early 
red Raspberry. 
Prices: 6 Plants, $1.50; 
25 Plants, $3.75. 
VIKING (New Red). Originated at Vine- 
land, Ontario. A cross of the
