There are two BIG reasons why Townsend's Selected Strain Latham plants mean 

 the surest road to bigger raspberry profits. The first is. there is no finer looking 

 red raspberry on the market. The second is, of all the raspberry varieties the 

 Latham produces more berries to the acre and does so with the least amount of 

 care, of any variety we have ever known. 



Without question and from any viewpoint, it is the KING of them all. Big. 

 Luscious, an irresistable appetizing red, it meets with instant favor on the table. 

 Producing more than 51,000 per acre in commercial plantings and possessing ex- 

 treme hardiness as well as splendid shipping qualities, it measures up to the wise 

 grower's every requirement. Whether you raise the Latham to sell or to serve, 

 you are certain to meet with satisfying success. 



The Latham has been put to every known test. It has proved under identical 

 conditions in competition with practically all leading varieties of raspberries. In 

 every instance it has outdistanced the field both in yield and net profit per acre. 



Furthermore to clinch its standing as the undisputed leader of the field. Town- 

 send's Selected Strain Latham comes to you Mosaic free. This disease which so 

 often means lost profit and constant annoyance becomes a thing of the past when 

 you buy our Latham plants. 



important: note: our Latham ARE the Redpath Strain. Officially Latham and Redpath are 



considered one and the sarre variety. Notwithstanding this conclusion, many well informed practical 

 fruit growers are still of the opinion that the Redpath is a superior strain of the Latham. OUR
