 mous crops of large fruit. 

 It combines many good 

 qualities, size, earliness and 

 productiveness. Canes are 

 also hardier than the old

 I the winters for four years 

 without injury, unprotected 

 at Monmouth. Its capacity 

 for yielding is extraordi- 

 nary. It is also without 

 double or rose blossoms. 

 The fruit in all respects, 

 both as regards appearance 

 and marketing properties.

Dewberry. 



LUCRETIA. —The 

 finest of its class that I 

 have yet seen and the first 

 one of several that I have 

 tried which proved favor- 

 able. The fruit is large, 

 luscious and handsome. It 

 has thus far proved hardy 

 at Monmouth, a healthy, 

 strong grower, and exceed- 

 ingly productive. A superb 

 fruit. The accompanying 

 figure represents a medium 

 sized berry, rip*.: Doz., T5c; 

 100, $4.00. 



CRANBERRIES. 



Culture.— Prepare the soil, if wet and spongy, by draining 

 away the surplus water to 10 or 12 inches below the surface: re- 

 move the top soil, make level and cover with two or three inches 

 of sand. Plant two feet apart each way (requiring lO.iXW slips prr 

 acre) with dibbles, leaving a top of 1 to IJ^o inches above ground. 

 The slips root readily, even when apparently dead from di ying; if 

 placed in water 12 to 24 hours, they will revive and grow with cer- 

 tainty. Flood the plants at approach of winter, keeping them cov- 

 ered until after freezing weather in the Spring. 

 lOO, 50 ets.; 1,000, $2.50. L.<>ts of 5,000 and iipivard. at special rates. 

 Large Cherry. — There are many varieties Bell.— Well known and extensively grown. Of 

 called Cherry, but the one offered is the larsrest and good size, bell-shaped, dark red, although variable 

 best of them all. Large, round, bright red. and a in form and color, vines also prolific. Ripens earlier 

 good keeper, vines vigorous, prolific. Rather late. than the Cherry. A good keeper.
