# THE FALLBEARING RASPBERRY IS ALSO ONE OF 

 THE EARLIEST SPRING FRUITING VARIETIES 



JUST as commercial growers are quick to real- 

 ize the value of the early spring crop, they 

 also realize the great possibilities of having 

 berries throughout the entire summer and fall. For this 

 reason, growers in practically all states east of the 

 Mississippi plant Townsend's Fallbearing Raspberries. 

 Market gardeners with a local trade will profit greatly by 

 planting this fruit. The home gardener, too, will find 

 much pleasure from these fine berries. They are easily 

 grown and may be planted along the border line, or as 

 an attractive background. They fruit the first year set, 

 and continue to do so for several years from the time of 

 the original planting. To increase fall production, the 

 new growth should be sheared back about 18 inches 

 after the spring crop is harvested. 



Recently intro- 

 duced, Kather- 

 ine is the best 

 Red Everbearing 



Raspberry that we have ever grown. Like its parents, it is a 

 persistent producer from early spring to late fall. Its large, firm 

 berries have an excellent flavor.

A NEW LATE 

 OF OUTSTANI 



NEWBURGH, one of the most 

 promising late red raspberries 

 of recent introduction has steadily 

 gained in popularity since it was origi- 

 nated only a short time ago by the New 

 York State Agricultural Experiment Sta- 

 tion. 



The large size, firm fruit does not 

 crumble; it is very attractive in its rich 

 redness; and ranks at the top as a good 

 shipper. The fruit is easily picked, 

 a vigorous grower, is very hardy, 

 and produces very well. New- 

 burgh can be successfully grown 

 in all sections, but we especially 

 recommend it for the extreme 

 northern states where severe 

 winters have killed other 

 varieties.
