 ally valuable for the home 

 garden, bearing large, 

 handsome berries of deli-

 35c; 100, $1.00; 1000, $7.00. 



Taylor's Prolific. Like Snyder, of unusual hardiness 

 of cane, and, ripening later, it makes 

 an excellent companion for it in cold 

 locations where hardiness is of more 

 importance than large size of berry.

 very prolific; berries of good size, 

 larger than Snyder, and of exceed- 

 ingly fine quality. Midseason to late. 

 Doz., 35c; 100, $1.00; 1000, $7.00. 



Snyder. A popular early sort for 

 planting attheNorth and North west;, 

 its extreme : hardiness of cane ren- 

 dering it valuable for cold climates.

 though the berries are but medium 

 in size, they are sweet and juicy, and 

 without auy hard core. Doz., 35c; taylor.

S;arance and market properties, 

 oz, 40c; 100, $1-25; 1000, $8.00. 



I3ERRY. 



Ohmer. Large, late and pro- 

 fitable. In both cane and fruit

 tough, healthy foliage. The

LOGAN 



The great merit of this grand 

 berry is now very generally 

 known and the fact of its hav- 

 ing become popular in so short 

 a time is very strong evidence 

 of its immense value. It is a 

 true hybrid between the Red 

 Raspberry and the Blackberry 

 and remarkable in every way. 

 The berries are of great size — 

 equalling large blackberries, 

 which they resemble in form 

 and structure, but are deep 

 reddish-maroon in color. In 

 flavor they are rich and 

 sprightly — a mingling of the 

 raspberry and blackberry, the 

 raspberry predominating, mel- 

 lowed and refined, yet distinct 

 from either — melting and with- 

 out core. The flavor is so lus- 

 cious, novel and rich, the berry 

 cannot fail to please everybody 



as a dessert fruit. For canning it is superior to all the other small fruits, and for jellies and jams it is unequalled 

 also. The canes are of strong, vigorous growth, semi-trailing in habit, and are clothed with an abundance of 

 large, dark green, leathery foliage (as shown by the accompanying illustration which was drawn from nature). 

 They are without the large sharp thorns of the Blackberry but have numerous fine red spines, like those upon the 

 Red Raspberry, and are propagated by rooting at the tips after the manner of Dewberries and Blackcap Rasp- 

 berries. What gives special value to this novel fruit is its earliness — ripening as it does at the close of the straw- 

 berry season, and in advance of all but the very earliest raspberries — continuing each year to give ripe berries 

 for three weeks and perfecting all its fruit, even the last, to full size, firmness, color and flavor. 

 Strong transplanted plants, ea., 20c; 3 for 50c; doz., $1.50; 100, $10.00.
