DEWBERRIES 
if ®HE DEWBERRY is a trailing blackberry and a little less hardy. It is 
= grown on a large commercial scale in the central and southern states. 
With the introduction of the Youngberry and Boysenberry, and Nectar- 
berry varieties, which are hardier than the Lucretia, the planting sections 
of the Dewberry have been advanced some two hundred miles north, and 
growers now are reporting good results as far north as Rhode Island and 
Western New York. Dewberries ripen earlier than Blackberries, are much 
larger, and have a very fine flavor. We consider the dewberry an ideal addi- 
tion to the home garden. They are becoming very popular on the market. 
On account of the texture of the Dewberry it should be placed on the 
market soon after picking and long hauls be avoided. Unless weather is 
cool and favorable for such trips, they should not be picked when dew is 
on or when fruit is damp. 
LUCRETIA. Exceptionally hardy vines that may be successfully planted in the 
Northern States, also grown on large scale 
in the South—large, firm, juicy fruit. 
NEW-THORNLESS BOYSENBERRY. If 
you are troubled with the thorns when pick- 
ing some of your dewberries we suggest this 
grand new thornless variety. This berry bears 
the same description, as its parent, which we 
rere at top of this page, only it’s thorn- 
ess. 
YOUNGBERRY. The Youngberry, a trailing NEW NECTARBERRY 
variety of the Dewberry family, has built up 
for itself a reputation for size and eating qualities, which make it highly prized 
by growers everywhere. For sheer productivity and high market prices, it’s tops 
For the home gardener, the Youngberry offers real pleasure from a small invest- 
vestment. 
NEW—ACME THORNLESS YOUNGBERRY (Patented Plant Patent +4). The 
only strain of Youngberry without thorns. The Thornless is equally as productive 
as the parent thorny type—in some cases has exceeded it, matures fruit few days 
earlier and continues its season slightly longer, foliage vigorous. Its outstanding 
point is in the fact that no thorns appear on this variety, makng picKing very 
easy. 
NEW—NECTARBERRY. This variety of dewberry has proven hardy under 
drought and cold, being grown in New York without winter injury. Fruit is little 
larger than Boysenberry, is of fine flavor. Ripens about two weeks later than 
Youngberry, thereby extending fruiting season of the dewberry. A fine flavored 
variety, very productive, valuable for market gardeners and home plantings.
