WHEN BUYING TOWNSEND'S SELECTED 

 RASPBERRY PLANTS 



One Setting Is Good for Years; 



Therefore Demand THE BEST 



STOCK When Starting Your 



Young Fields 



Fresh Dug Stock, 



Direct from the fields, is what our customers re- 

 ceive. No cold storage stock that has been taken 

 up in the fall and held until spring: planting time 

 will be offered our customers. Nothing but stock 

 of the highest vitality that is 



State Inspected, 



will be sent out: phmts that have been grown in 

 ideal climate and soil: iiropagated under careful 

 supervision, with the one idea of growing a bet- 

 ter plant than you can purchase elsewhere. 

 Exjierienced growers demand our 



Fibrous Rooted 



plants, knowing that with this extra growth of 

 roots that our stock will start off much (piicker 

 after transplanting, and soon develo]) the fruit- 

 ing wood, which is (>ssential for a profitable crop. 

 We have a fine stock of plants tliis year, and 

 await your order, assuring you that Townsend's 

 Quality Plants will please you and make you 

 larger returns per acre. 



The Red Raspberries fill in very nicely on the 

 small fruit farm. Coming into bearing just af- 

 ter the Strawberry crop is over, and before the 

 Black caps start, they are very easily grown. 

 With rather stiff land their home, where they 

 will produce great quantities of berries the fol- 

 lowing summer after set. Plants should be set 

 3 feet in the row, spacing the rows 6 feet apart, 

 where they may be allowed to make a hedgelike 

 growth, producing more fruit each year as the 

 new canes form. One setting is good for sev- 

 eral years.
