J. T. LOVETT, LITTLE SILVER, N.J.— RASPBERRIES 



RASPBERRIES 



Plants will be shipped by mail, provided cash is sent for postage as per table. 



Plant the red or upright growing varieties in rows six feet apart and the plants three 

 feet apart in the rows, requiring 2,420 plants per acre; or four feet apart each way, if to be 

 grown in hills. (In the garden, plant four feet apart each way and restrict to hills, permit- 

 ting but three or four canes to remain in each hill.) In field culture, the cap varieties should 

 be planted in rows seven feet apart and the plants three and a half feet apart in the rows; in 

 garden culture, plant four feet apart each way. 



Please do not order less than six plants of a variety; a reliable test cannot be made with 

 a less number. 



u ST. REGIS EVERBEARING OR RANERE 



Undoubtedly more largely planted than all other Everbearing sorts combined. 



A unique red Raspberry, and, all things considered, the most valuable one that has 

 appeared in the last quarter of a century. It was introduced by us in 1910 and by sheer 

 merit has forged ahead by leaps and bounds, until it now stands at the top of the list of red 

 varieties. The berries, though not of largest size, are bright red and of excellent quality. It 

 ripens very early — in advance of all other red varieties — and the canes, in addition to being 

 very hardy and drought-resistant, are exceedingly prolific. Its leaves do not scald nor rust, 

 hence it succeeds on hot, sandy soil where other varieties fail. 



Besides giving an immense crop in summer, it also gives an autumn crop, continuing to 

 produce perfect berries in generous quantity until the ground freezes. Unlike most other 

 Raspberries, it yields a moderate crop of berries the first season if planted in early spring. 



The St. Regis sends up suckers or young plants excessively, and unless these are kept 

 down (to a single row of plants or three to four plants to the hill), with hoe or otherwise, 

 treating the surplus ones as weeds, the crop of fruit v/ill be small, both in quantity and size 

 of the berries. 



Selected sucker plants, dozen, $1.00; 100. $3.50; 1,000, $25.00. Transplanted plants, dozen. 

 $1.50; 100, $6.00; 1,000, $50.00. Heavy fruiting plants, dozen, $3.00; 100. $15.00. 



WHITE QUEEN (Everbearing) 



Since the introduction of our sensational St. Regis Everbearing Raspberry several years 

 ago, there have been introduced a great many new sorts, almost all of which were claimed 

 to be superior to that good old sort, but these claims have proved, almost invariably, to have 

 been made without regard to facts. We have, however, in White Queen a beautiful white 

 fruited variety which in certain respects is actually an improvement upon St. Regis._ It is 

 tremendously productive, even more so. we believe, than St. Regis; its fruit is also, if any- 

 thing, larger and its quality simply superb. The fruit of White Queen served with the fruit 

 of St. Regis or other red-fruited variety is surely a delight to the eye and a real treat to the 

 inner man. To this remarkable new Everbearing variety, after a thorough test, we give our 

 unqualified endorsement. Selected Sucker plants, dozen, $5.00; 100, $35.00.
