KING. The Finest Red Raspberry Yet Produced. 



For many 

 years L 

 have been 

 w a t c hing 

 and test- 

 ing this 

 truly mar- 

 velous Raspberry 

 and know it from, 

 personal observation 

 to be by far the best 

 red Raspberry yet 

 produced. It "is the 

 only early red Raspberry that 

 I have tested, which 'unites 

 large size, beauty, firmness and 

 good quality of fruit with 

 productiveness, vigorous 

 growth and hardiness of cane. Its season 

 is the very earliest: ripening with or before 

 HanseJl or Marlboro, and much in advance of Phoenix 

 or Miller. Its fruit is as bright in color as either of 

 the last two named (there are none brighter or more 

 beautiful) and of the very best quality — fully equal- 

 ling the Cuthbert or Loudon in this respect as well as 

 in size, and is much firmer than either of these two 

 grand varieties. In productiveness it is equal to any red 

 Raspberry I have ever grown and in ^-igorous gi'owth 

 and hardiness of cane as well as in the enduiing pro- 

 perties of its foliage, it is not surpassed by the old 

 standard of excellence in cane, the Turaer. I have 

 thus briefly noted its character by comparison with 

 the leading red varieties: yet in doing so I have said 

 very nearly all that can be said in favor of a Rasp- 

 berry of its class. I believe it to be worthy of all that I have 

 said in its favor; for in earliness. large size, beauty of form 

 md color, high quality, firmness, productiveness, vigorous 

 growth and hardiness: in a word in value, it is without an 

 equal. 



I am glad to have a chance to say a good word for the King Raspberry, 

 The plant is very healthy and robust, and exceedingly productive, The 

 fruit Is as large as any berry of Its class that I have seen, and that 

 includes about all the new ones. Its color is very bright for a red variety, 

 and Its flavor is equal to that of any of them. My experience with It Is 

 that the berry is firm enough to ship to any market In good condition. In 

 season it is among the very early ones. Prof. H. E, VanDemax.
