FALL PLANTING SUGGESTIONS FROM 



CURRANTS 



When desired, plants will be forwarded by parcel post, 

 provided cash is sent for postage as per table. 



A cool, moist location is best for these fruits, and for 

 this reason they succeed admirably when planted by a stone 

 wall or fence, being benefited by partial shade. Keep the 

 ground mellow and free of weeds and grass, using fertilizer 

 copiously. Mulching is necessary for the best returns. 

 Plant in rows four feet apart and the plants set three feet 

 apart in the rows. 



Uniform prices for all varieties (except as quoted other- 

 wise). 1 year, each, 30c.; dozen, $3.00. 2 years, each, 40c.; 

 dozen, $4.00. 



Boskoop Giant. — By far the best of the black fruited 

 varieties. The fruit is often more than a half inch in di- 

 ameter and is of rich, sweet flavor. A strong grower and 

 early. 1 year, each, 40c.; dozen, $4.00. 2 years, each, 50c.; 

 dozen, $5.00. 



Cherry and Versailles. — Large berries, short clusters, 

 bright sparkling crimson; of sharp and acid flavor. 



Everybody's. — Bunch and berry of large size; clear, 

 bright sparkling red and of excellent quality. Ripens in mid- 

 season and continues for a long time. The variety has been 

 fully tested for many years and has proved to be superior 

 to all others as a cropper of fine fruit. Indeed, that is why 

 we named it "Everybody's," because everybody can grow 

 it with success. 1 year, each, 40c.; dozen, $4.00. 2 years, 

 each, 50c.; dozen, $5.00. 



Fay's Prolific. — Bunch and berry large, bright and spark- 

 ling. A regular and prolific bearer. 



North Star. — The old red Dutch currant greatly improved 

 and one of the finest in quality. Berries bright red, rather 

 small; but the clusters are long and are pro- 

 duced in wonderful profusion. 



Perfection. — Produces in great profusion 

 large, long clusters of very large, bright red 

 berries, of mild, splendid quality. 1 year, each. 

 40c.; dozen, $4.00. 2 years, each, 50c.; dozen, 

 $5.00. 



Pres. Wilder. — Produces late in the season 

 very large bright red berries that are juicy and 

 of high quality. 



Red Cross. — This is reputed to be the sweet- 

 est of all Currants. It is an exceptionally 

 healthy and vigorous grower. Produces im- 

 mense crops of good size sparkling red berries 

 in large clusters. 



Victoria.— The best late variety. Bunches 

 long; berries of medium size, pale red and of 

 superior quality. 



White Grape.— By far the best of the white 

 fruited sorts. It is a beautiful translucent white, 

 of mild, good quality. 1 year, each, 40c.; dozen, 

 $4.00. 2 years, each, 50c.; dozen, $5.00.
