RASPBERRIES. 
To keep a raspberry bed in good, productive condition, the old weak and dead 
wood should be cut out every season, as soon as the crop is gathered, to give strength 
to the young shoots for the next year’s bearing. In spring, the weakest suckers 
should be removed, leaving five or six of the strongest in each hill. The ground 
should be spaded, and a top dressing of manure given. , 
PRotTEcTION—To guard against injury by the winter, the canes may be tied to 
stakes and covered with straw, or they may be laid down in the autumn, and covered 
with a few inches of earth, leaves, litter or branches of evergreens.
