SELECT SMALL FRUITS. 



For Fall Planting. Ready Oct. 20th. 



Fall is a good lime to plant hardy Grapes, Blackberries, Raspberries, Currants, 

 etc.; the plants being at that time doimanc are less liable to injury in transplanting 

 than when planted in spring. After planting, cover the roots with 2 or 3 inches of 

 litter or manure. While tlie list offered on tills and the next i^age is short, yet it is 

 very select, only the very finest sorts being offered. We think this is better than 

 oiTering a long list, many of which would be of doubtful value, ll^e do not handU 

 fruit trees, such as apples, pears, cherries, etc.
