 to market the fruit rath-

 The berry is as largess 

 Cuthbert holding its size 

 to the end of the season; 

 round in shape, color a 

 bright red, does not fade, 

 but will hold its color 

 after shipment longer 

 than any other red va-

best shipping berry in 

 existence, has not the 

 flat taste of some varieties, but a rich fruity flavor entirely its own. 

 The time of ripening is with the very earliest, the first picking be- 

 ing with Thompson's Early, June 11th. the Miller producing doub 

 le the quantity of berries at each picking that Thompson did, in 

 the same field under the same condition continuing until August 

 3d— Thompson having been gone three weeks, fully as prolific as 

 Cuthbert. It does not seem particular as to soil, having been 

 fruited on light, sandy, gravelly and heevy clay soil with equal 

 success. To sum up, it possesses the following points of superiority 

 as compared with other varieties: 1st it ripens with the very earl- 

 iest. 2d, Productiveness equal to any. 3d, Has no equal as a ship- 

 per. 4th, Perfectly hardy, 5th Quality unsurpassed. 6th, At- 

 tractive color. 



The above is what we said last year and it was better the last 

 fruiting season than before. One successful grower in Delaware 

 realized as high as 12c to 14c per quart at depot, and over $300 from

CURRANTS. 



They should be planted in good deep soil, in a cool location 

 and manured very heavily. Plant 4 by 5 feet, work like raspberries, 

 keep the soil moist ind free from w<reds, and mulch with manure, 

 if the best quality of fruit is desired. They should be pruned 

 every year and all old wood cut from them; keep them thinned 

 out so that air can freely pass through them, Currant worms can 

 be destroyed by using hellebore; dissolve one ounce in three 

 gallons of water, and apply with a sjringe or small sprinkling can. 

 This can be done with very little expens i if performed at the right 

 time. 



NORTH STAR— A promising new \ ariety The average length 

 of the bunch is four inches. The fruit is very sweet, rich in quality, 

 firm, a good market berry, desirable as a dessert fruit in the natural 

 state, and unequaled for jelly. The length and abundance of the 

 clusters make it possible to pick 25 per cent mon fruit in the same 

 length of time from this than from any other sorts. Recom- 

 mended as a valuable new berry. 



CHERRY— Very large, red, bunch long, of great beauty and 

 excellent quality, one of the best for general planting. 



RED DUTCH— Medium size, large bunches; the old and well 

 known currant for the garden, a profitable market variety, 



VICTORIA— Very late red variety, fruit large, long, very pro- 

 ductive and of excellent quality.
