Macatawa (See illustration) 



This variety is very often classed as an everbear- 

 ing sort because of its very long fruiting season. 

 Over a period of many weeks, this plant will pro- 

 duce fruit which is sweet, almost seedless and en- 

 tirely without core. The plants themselves are 

 strong, upright in growth, and tremendously pro- 

 lific. It does well in a great variety of soils, and the 

 fruits, are always of uniformly good quahty.

The Red Raspberry 



Pleases the eye — delights the palate 



Fresh Raspberries are always in demand. The fruit has a lusciousness all its own that requires no 

 cooking or seasoning to make tempting. They will not stand rough handhng, and large acreages of rasp- 

 berries are not often grown for shipment to distant markets. The grower with a few acres is always sure 

 of a good price for his berries in the home market and near-by cities, for there is no danger of the mar- 

 kets being overloaded with fruit gro^m a thousand miles away. A small patch in the back yard is a sure 

 source of profit and a supply of rich, highly flavored fruit for the table. 



Our list includes only varieties of outstanding merit, and we may point with perhaps a pardonable 

 pride to the fact that some of the most worth-while standards of today are Lovett's introductions of 

 years gone by. 



Cuthbert — Introduced by Lovett's in 1878, and 

 still the leading red market variety. Berries very 

 large, crimson-scarlet, of excellent quahty, firm, 

 juicy and refreshing. Ripens, midseason. Sucker 

 plants, dozen, $1,00; 100, $5.00. Heavy trans- 

 planted plants, dozen, $2.00; 100, $10.00. 



Donboro — Ripening about a week before Cuth- 

 bert, the plants are noted as heavy producers. 

 Berries are large and of bright color. Selected 

 sucker plants, dozen, $2.00; 100, $10.00. 



Herbert — Of Canadian origin, this variety is un- 

 usually hardy and disease resistant. Plants are 

 vigorous and productive, and the fruit is larger, and 

 rounder than Cuthbert, but unfortunately softer. 

 Has proved to be a dependable market sort, with 

 careful handhng, in New York and New England. 

 Ripens wdth Cuthbert, but size of berry assures 

 market. Selected sucker plants, dozen, $1.00; 100, 

 $5.00; 1,000, $35.00.

 the middle West; does best on clay loam. Fruit is 

 early, medium size, bright red and of good quahty.

 planted plants, dozen, $1.50; 100, $7.50. 



Latham — ^Developed in Minnesota, highly re- 

 sistant to diseases, Latham is also noted for its 

 yield, hardiness, and the popular favor mth which 

 it is received. Bright extra large berries are pro- 

 duced on strong growing canes. Heavy sucker 

 plants, dozen, $2.00; 100, $10.00. 



Ohta — This is an extremely hardy variety and 

 very often produces a second crop in the fall.
