for next year's bearing.

NEW EVERBEARING RASPBERRY^ 

 RED RANERE. 



This is not only the earliest red raspberry but it is a perpetual fruiting variety. 

 Its main crop is greater than that of any other red variety and continues to bear 

 fruit on the old canes until late in August, at about which time the berries begin 

 to ripen on the young canes of the current year's growth, which continue to bear 

 fruits in increasing number until late in Fall. The berries are bright crimson, of 

 good size, excellent quality, of a rich sugary, full raspberry flavor. 10 cts. each; 

 Perfection Red Currant. 75 cts. per doz.; $5.00 per 100; $35.00 per 1000.
