THE LOVETT COMPANY, LITTLE SILVER, N. /. 



LOUDON. ever, and ripens in midseasonto late — with the Cuth- 



bert. Were it somewhat earlier, a little brighter in 

 color and firmer, it would be without a rival among 

 red Raspberries. 

 Suckers, ea., 15c; 3 for 30c; doz., $1.00; 100, $5.00. 

 Transplanted, ea., 20c; 3for50c; doz., $1.50; 100, $8.00. 

 Thousand rates upon application. 



EUREKA 



An improvment upon Souhegan with which it ripens. 

 The berries are almost as large as Gregg, firm, jet black, 

 and of much better quality. Canes are vigorous, hardy 

 and bear enormously. Its earliness, productiveness and 

 large size make it a profitable market sort and desirable 

 for the home garden. Ea., 10c; 3 for 25c; doz., 75c; 

 100, $3.00; 1000, $20.00. 



GAULT PERPETUAL 



An especially desirable variety for the home garden 

 on account of its everbearing character, it being a truly 

 perpetual bearer. The berries are large and firm, of a 

 beautiful clear black with fine rich flavor. The young 

 canes begin fruiting the first year, before the regular 

 crop is gone, and bear successively until frost. Unfor- 

 tunately the foliage mildews badly rendering it a poor 

 grower. Ea., 20c; 3 for 50c; doz., $1.50; 100, $10.00. 



c-THE LDVETT CD. 



This is indeed a very valuable variety. We have 

 now tested it in field culture and find it a strong grow- 

 er with beautiful foliage, exceedingly prolific and per- 

 fectly^ hardy. The berries are very large and beauti- 

 ful, not so brilliant as some others but the richest and 

 finest in quality of any entirely hardy and reli- 

 able variety in cultivation. It is not very firm, how-

THE LOGAN BERRY. 



Although numberless varieties of fruits are constantly being produced, many of which possess merit, yet it is 

 only about once in fifty years that a fruit appears that marks so great an advance and is so distinct and valuable 

 as to revolutionize the culture of fruits of its class. The Wilson Strawberry started the movement which has 

 resulted in bringing what was an obscure fruit a hundred years ago into a prominence that makes it now one 

 of great importance. Likewise the Concord Grape has made American grape culture what it is to-day. The 

 Blackberry, which was not grown, even in gardens, prior to the introduction of the Lawton or New Rochelle, is 

 now second in importance among our small fruits only to the Sti^awberry. 



In the Logan Berry, which is a true hybrid between the Red Raspberry and Blackberr we have a fruit of 

 far greater value than any of those above named, and is absolutely unique; hence it is destined to mark an epoch 

 in fruit culture, quite as definite and pronounced as any berry that has preceded it. Although produced in Cali- 

 fornia, it has proved entirely hardy at the East and North where it has been fully tested, having been subjected 

 to a temperature several degrees below zero, in an exposed position without the slightest protection, coming 

 through the winters with every branch alive to the tips. 



The berries are of enormous size — fully equalling the largest blackberries, which they resemble in form and 

 structure (as shown in the illustration) hut are deep reddish-maroon in color. In flavor they are rich and 

 sprightly — a mingling of the raspberry and blackberry, mellowed and refined, but distinct from either — and they
