CON RATH [Cap). The best early Blackcap, possess- 

 ing- earliness, vigor, hardiness, large size and productiveness, 

 surpassing by far Souhegan, Palmer or any of the other early 

 black varieties. It resembles Gregg in many ways, but the 

 berries are jet black and free from the woolly appearance of 

 that berry, equal it in size and firmness and excel it in 

 sweetness. The fruit always leaves the stem easily, and 

 may be gathered without crushing or breaking. The canes 

 are of ironclad hardiness, very prolific and make a good, 

 healthy growth. Doz., 30c; 100, $1.00; 1000, $7.00 



CUTHBERT. Introduced by me in 1878 and still one 



of the leading stand- 

 ard red Raspberries. 

 It ripens late and con- 

 tinues to be popular 

 and the best of its sea- 

 son. It has proved of 

 great adaptability to 

 all parts of the country 

 and under good culture 

 is profitable. Berries 

 large, crimson, firm 

 and good ; canes of 

 strong growth with 

 healthy foliage ; ex- 

 ceedingly productive. 

 Midseason to late. 

 Doz., 30c; 100, $1.00; 

 1000, $6.00. 



MILLER. Com- 

 bines the essential 

 properties of a good 

 market raspberry, viz.: good size, firmness, brightness of 

 color and productiveness. The Miller is a popular berry 

 among shippers, and although lacking the extreme earliness, 

 large size and fine quality of the King is still a profitable 



CUMBERLAND. For large size, beauty, 

 hardiness, vigor and productiveness it leads them 

 all. It is a remarkable variety and fills one with 

 astonishment upon beholding it, and so it is that 

 for the past two seasons all the plants grown have 

 not been sufficient to supply the immense demand 

 for it. The berries are immense ; in shape, longer 

 than they are broad, resembling blackberries ; jet 

 black with little or no bloom, very firm and of ex- 

 cellent qualitj r , sweet and pleasant, canes strong, 

 vigorous and exceptionally hardy, bearing large 

 crops annually. Owing to its great size, beauty, 

 good quality, vigor, hardiness of cane and re- 

 markable productiveness, it has been termed the 

 "business Raspberry," which title is peculiarly 

 appropriate. I am receiving the ve^ finest re- 

 ports of it from all parts of the countrj'. Its sea- 

 son of ripening is midseason. Doz., 50c; 100, 

 $2.50 ; 1000, $20.00. 



KANSAS {Cap). One of the best of the standard Black- 

 caps, better than Gregg, because of its greater hardiness, less 

 bloom and greater productiveness. It is a a profitable mar- 

 ket sort and its handsome appearance and fine flavor make 



it desirable for the home garden . Berries fully as large as 

 Gregg, firm, and of fine quality. Its canes are of strong 

 growth, entirely hardy and prolific. Ripens about mid- 

 season to late. Doz., 30c; 100, $1.00; 1000, $6.00. 



GOLDEN QUEEN. Introduced by me in 1885 and 

 the best yellow Raspberry that has yet appeared. Espec- 

 ially desirable for the home garden. In all but color it is 



variety, its yield being immense. The berries are large, 

 round, very firm, sweet and good, and of a brilliant crimson, 

 which brightness is retained at all times. The canes are of 

 stout habit, of great hardiness and prolific. It may be relied 

 upon to produce annually a very large crop of good fruit. 

 Early. Doz., 30c; 100, $1.00; 1000. $7.00. 



identical with Cuthbert, possessing canes of equal vigor and 

 even greater productiveness. Berries are large, translucent 

 delicate golden yellow and of high qualit3'; forming a de- 

 lightful contrast in color to the fruit of the crimson varieties. 

 Midseason. Doz. , 35c ; 100, $1.25 ; 1000, $8.00.
