New Rathbun Blackberry 



— We recommend this grand new Blackberry as one of 

 the very best both for family use and for market. It 

 is immensely productive, and the berries are of enormous 

 size, 45 of them having* measured a full 

 quart. The color is deep jet black, and the flavor 

 is delicious, very rich, sugary and melting. TheJ^ushes 

 grow erect and strong in 

 tree form, and do not 

 sucker but root from 

 the tips of the 

 branches. They 

 bear and ripen 

 early and are un- 

 doubtedly one of 

 the choicest and 

 most valuable gar- 

 den fruits you can 

 plant. 15c. each. 

 2 for 25c, $1.00 

 per doz., post- 

 paid. 



ffewwuite 



— This is not offered as a curiosity, but is a grand 

 luscious fruit, fully equal to the best Blackberries 

 in flavor and quality, with the advantage of being 

 clear white instead of black. The bushes 

 are hardy and very productive, bending down in 

 all directions under their loads of delicious snowy 

 berries, which are very large and borne in fine 

 clusters. Good Strong Plants, 15 cts. each, 

 2 for 25 cts., $1.00 per doz., postpaid. 

 New Blackberry, "Agawam"-A great 

 favorite for family use, entirely hardy and very 

 productive. Fruit large, jet black, sweet, tender 

 and melting to the core. Ready for use as soon 

 as black. An early and valuable variety. 15 cts., 

 2 for 25 cts., $125 per doz. 



The Lucretia Dewberry— This is well known 

 and highly valued for garden planting ; it ripens 

 a little before blackberries. The berries are often 

 one and one-half inches long by an inch in diam- 

 eter, sweet and luscious to the centre. It is very 

 productive ; a dozen plants will supply quite a 

 large family , equally good raw or cooked. It is 

 one of the very earliest and best of our garden 

 fruits. 10 cts. each, 3 for 25 cts., 75 cts. 

 per dozen, postpaid. 



Don't Forget — That a small collection of choice 

 garden fruits is one of the best-paying invest- 

 ments you can have. Everybody wants nice fruit.
