ductive. It is the earliest red raspberry we have seen, coming 
into bearing just as the strawberry season is over. Price, 75c.

HIS favorite fruit is second only to the strawberry in 
C importance. They do very wellin a partially shaded 
place where they will receive one-half the sunlight. 
They may be planted in rows four feet apart with two feet 
between the plants in the row, or in hills four feet apart 
m each way, setting three plants in a hill. In pruning, thin 
4 out the shoots in each hill to four or six; this is best done in 
the summer after the fruit is gathered, and at the same time 
cut out the old canes that have borne fruit so that the young 
shoots may develop and ripen their wood for the following 
season’s crop. 
BLACK RASPBERRIES. “Caps.” 
Plant about four feet apart each way, or in rows five feet apart 
with two feet between the plants in the rows. Thin out the wood 
which has borne fruit after the crop is off and pinch back the grow- 
ing shoots when they are about four feet high, about eighteen 
incheslong. Theplants we offer are all transplanted, hence infinitely 
superior to those usually sold. (If wanted by mail, add 10c. per doz.) 
LOVETT RASPBERRY. The Lovett Raspberry has the past 
season fully sustained, in a fruiting field of six acres, all that has 
been claimed for it; and, taken all in all, has proved itself to be by 
far the best black raspberry that has as yet been put upon the market. 
It is of ironclad hardiness, and is the strongest in growth of 
cane of any. Inthe home garden especially its sweet fine flavor 
and small seeds will make it welcome while its other prominent 
characteristics render it decidedly profitable for market growing. 
Price (transplanted plants), $1.25 per doz., $8.00 per 100. 
PROGRESS. (Pioneer.) Is a most profitable market sort, entirely 
hardy. Berries jet-black, very firm and of good quality. Price 
(transplanted plants), 50c. per doz., $3.00 per 100. 
SOUHEGAN or TYLER. A very early blackcap and the leading 
early market sort. It ripens its entire crop in a very short 
period. Canes vigorous and hardy, with foliage healthy and free 
from rust; wonderfully productive. Fruit of good size, jet- 
black with but little bloom, firm and of sweet pleasant flavor. 
Price (transplanted plants), 50c. per doz., $3.00 per 100. 
GREGG. (Cap.) A popularmarket sort. Canes of strong vigorous 
growth and under good culture, productive. Berries very large, 
covered with heavy bloom, firm, meaty, and of fine flavor. 
It requires good strong soil to produce best results and responds 
liberally to generous treatment. It is not entirely hardy but 
suffers during unusually hardy winters. Transplanted, 50c. 
per doz., $3.00 per 100.
