CLASS Ill. 
AUTUMNAL BEARING RASPBERRIES. 
This is an interesting class of Raspberries, bearing not only a full crop at 
the usual season, but another in Autumn, on the canes of the current season’s 
growth. To insure a full autumn crop, the summer crop should be sacrificed, by 
cutting all the canes to the ground in the spring, and removing all the weak suckers. 
or young canes, giving those intended for fruiting, plenty of room and good culture. 
They will well repay all this.
