T'S easy to be enthiuiiastic 

 about Latham because it is 

 the finest looking berry on the market 

 — and because it produces more berries 

 to the acre than any other variety ^and 

 does so with the least amount of care> . 

 This KING of all raspberries 

 will mean Real Profits for you. 

 Townsends' Select Strain Lat- 

 ham yields large, luscious rich 

 red fruit — so appetizing in its 

 appearance and flavor that it 

 meets with instant approval! 

 Commercial growers average 

 over $1,000 per acre of plants. 

 Latham, which is entirely free 

 of mosaic, more than measures 

 up to the most exacting stand- 

 ards, producing firm fruit that 

 is excellent for long distance 

 shipping. Order some Town- 

 sends' Latham — you'll be 

 pleased with your success, 

 whether you raise to sell or to 

 serve ' 



VEN though introduced only 

 a few years ago, Newburgh 

 has met with instantaneous suc- 

 cess since its origination by the 

 New York State Agriculture Experi- 

 ment Station. Newburgh berries, which 

 are attractive and excellent for ship- 

 ping, cling to the branch long after 

 ripening — do not crumble. Newburgh 

 has been successfully grown in all sec- 

 tions, although we recommend 

 it especially for the extreme 

 Northern States where severe 

 winters have ruined several 

 other varieties. Newburgh is a 

 vigorous grower, is very hardy 

 and robust, and produces beau- 

 tifully. 





Absolutely Hardy — ^Easy to Grow 



CHIEF, the earliest raspberry of all, 

 is the only real rival to Latham, 

 it was selected from a planting of 4,01)0 

 Latham seedlings by the Minnesota State 

 Breeding Farm, and has become the best 

 early red for general planting, surpassing 

 all others. The fruit, while not quite as 

 large as Latham, is extremely hardy, firm, 

 bright red in color, practically immune from 

 mosaic and mildew, keeps and ships well, 

 and is an unusually heavy producer. Its 

 brilliant coloring and appealing flavor, to- 

 gether with its early ripening, makes Chief 

 a good money maker for the commercial 

 grower, and the home gardener as well.
