LATHAM 



KING OF THE REDS 



There are two BIG reasons why the LATHAM Raspberry 



(Redpath Strain) means the surest, quickest road to bigger 

 profits. The first is, there is no finer looking red raspber 

 the market. The second is, of all raspberries the LATHAM 

 produces more berries to the acre and does so with the 

 least amount of care, of any other variety we have 

 known. 



Without question, and from any viewpoint, it is the King of 

 them all. Big, luscious, an irresistible, appetizing red, it meets 

 with instant favor on the table. Producing more than $1,000 

 per acre in commercial plantings and possessing 

 extreme hardiness as well as splendid shipping 

 qualities, it measures up to the wise grower's < 

 requirement. Whether you raise the Latham t 

 or to serve, you are certain to meet with satisfying 

 success. 



THE LATHAM has been put to every known 

 test. It has been grown under identical con- 

 ditions in competition with practically all 

 leading varieties of Raspberries. In every in- 

 stance, it has outdistanced the field. It has 

 even produced a profitable yield the first 

 summer after planting. 



Furthermore, to clinch its standing as 

 the undisputed leader of the field, our 

 Latham i Redpath Strain) come to you 

 "Mosaic free." This disease, which so often 

 means lest profits and constant annoyance.

OVER OLD FAVORITES 



Here are the facts reported 

 by the Connecticut Agricultural 

 College, under Supervision of W. 

 H. Darrow, Fruit Specialist. In 

 comparative tests the leading va- 

 rieties of Raspberries were planted 

 in the same soil, under identical con- '^H 

 ditions, all receiving the same care and ^H 

 attention, with the following results: ^H 

 The LATHAM— 5430 Quarts Per Acre 

 The HERBERT— 3648 Quarts Per Acre 

 The CUTHBERT— 3600 Quarts Per Acre 

 These were the three leaders. The Latham ' 

 produced 1782 quarts more per acre than the 

 best of the others. In dollars and cents, figuring 

 at 30 cents per quart. Latham yielded at the rate of 

 $1,629 per acre! Proof conclusive that the LATHAM 

 rules supreme in the Red Raspberry field. 



BIG PROFITS 



From E. O. SCHOEMBS. Villa Ridge. 

 Illinois — "My one-year patch of 

 Latham planted in checks six by 

 six produced 72 twenty-four pint 

 crates per five hundred hills. 

 My average price per crate 

 through the entire season 

 was S6.00. These plants 

 were Mosaic free when I 

 received them and 

 passed State Inspec- 

 tion for two years." 

 This is S432.00 from 

 500 plants the 

 first season.
