 The upright growing varieties should be planted for field culture in rows six feet apart, and the plants three 

 feet distant in the rows, requiring 2,400 plants per acre; or four feet each way to be cultivated in hills, requiring 

 2, TOO plants per acre. It is best to place two plants in each hill, requiring, of course, double the number. In 

 garden culture plant three feet apart each way and restrict to hills. Soon as planted cut back the canes to within 

 a few inches of the ground. In field culture plant the cap varieties in rows seven feet apart and three feet six 

 inches distant in the row, requii'ing 1,775 plants to the acre; or four and a half feet apart each way, requiring 

 2,150 plants to the acre. In garden culture plant four feet apart each way. We do not advise planting cap 

 Raspberries in the autumn as they are difficult to make live if set at that season. Autmnn^ however, is by far 

 tbe best season in which to plant the red or upright-growing Raspberries. 



MILLEU 



A thoroughly good and reliable early red raspberry ! The three 

 most popular red raspberries before the public are Cuthbert, Marl- 

 boro and Thompson's Early Prolific. Miller has now been fruited by 

 many practical fruit growers infield culture, for several years, who 

 have proved it to possess the merits of all the three varieties named 

 and who affirm it has not manifested a single defect. The Miller is 

 as vigorous and sturdy in cane as the Marlboro, with equally abund- 

 ant and luxuriant foliage, producing berries almost as large and as 

 profusely, and as beautiful and brilliant in color as Thomjjson^s Early which it sioyasses as a shipjoer — just 

 what we have all been wanting so long but never until now been able to obtain. Nothing in the way of red rasp- 

 berries since the advent of the Cuthbert can be compared with the Miller in point of value, except Phoenix. 



It is said that man is kno-«Ti by his works and that actions speak louder than words. TTe attest om* opinion 

 of the value of this variety by the fact that we have eight acres of it in bearing and shaD increase om- acreage of 

 it the coming season.

Ulster Co., N. Y., Oct. 8th, 1995. 

 Last spring I bought 200 Miller Raspberries of you. 

 I fruited them some from the old canes and on my soil 

 they are all that is needed. The berries are Jiard, 

 bright red, and large. I think when they bear fully 

 next smnmer I shall sell many for you. To see them 

 ivill be to sell them. H. N. Downer.

 1000 more MHler].

 We are confident that Miller ^\\\\ take the place of 

 all other red raspberries for market, as it is as early as 

 Thompson, earlier thau Turner, as bright in color as 

 Brandy wine and fully as prolific as Cuthbert. In ship- 

 ping qualities it is without an equal, holding firm and 

 solid for a longer time than any other variety. In hardi- 

 ness and vigor of plant it is equal to the Turner.
