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. It is an exceptionally vigorous grower. 

 Bears great crops of good sized sparkling red berries. 



VICTORIA — The best late variety. Bunches 

 Song; berries of medium size, pale red and of superior 

 quality. 



WHITE GRAPE — By far the best of the white 

 fruited sons. It is a beautiful translucent white and 

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

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



DEWBERRIES 



Plants will be shipped by mail, provided cash is 

 sent for postage as per table. If to be staked, plant 

 in rows four feet apart each way; if to be mulched, 

 plant in rows six feet apart and the plants three feet 

 apart in the rows. 



LUCRETIA — The standard dewberry. It rip- 

 ens in advance of the earliest blackberry, is sweeter 

 and equals in size the best varieties of this near 

 relative. Of slender, trailing habit, the vines are 

 entirely hardy except at the far North, succeed on 

 all soils (even very sandy) and are exceedingly pro- 

 lific. The berries are of large size, sparkling jet 

 black, and of high quality. Dozen, 75c; 100, 

 $4.00; 1,000, $35.00. 



AUSTIN'S IMPROVED- The earliest dew- 

 berry and the first to ripen of the blackberry fam- 

 ; !\. The berries are large, nearly round and of ex- 

 cellent qualitv. Ripens in advance of Lucretia. 

 Dozen. $1.00; 100, $5.00. 



A rich soil, partly shaded location and plenty of mois- 

 ture form the essential requirements for success with this 

 fruit. Plant in rows, 4 feet apart, spacing the plants 3 

 feet apart in the row. Mulch during the winter. 



When desired, plants will be forwarded by parcel post, 

 provided cash is sent for postage as per table. 



Uniform prices for all varieties (except as quoted 

 otherwise) : 1 year, each, 30c. ; dozen, $3.00. 2 years, 

 each, 40c; dozen, $4.00. 



CHERRY AND VERSAILLES — Large berries, shoit 

 clusters, bright sparkling crimson, of sharp and acid flavor. 



EVERYBODY'S 



(See illustration to left) 



Another season's reports cause us to feel increasingly 

 ; itisfied that we are justified in our praise of this remark- 

 able variety. Equally satisfactory in various soils and 

 sections, we consider it the most satisfactory all- 

 around currant in cultivation. A strong grower, it is 

 naturally very prolific. It ripens in midseason and 

 the berries remain in good condition for a long time. 

 The berries are of large size, being clear, of bright 

 sparkling red and with juice of highest quality. 

 We know of no finer variety for the various uses to 

 which Currants may be put. 1 year old, each, 

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

 $5.00. 



FAY'S PROLIFIC — Bunch and berry large, 

 bright and sparkling. A regular and prolific bearer. 



NORTH STAR — A greatly improved "Old 

 Dutch" of the finest quality. Berries bright red, 

 rather small; but the long clusters are produced in 

 wonderful profusion. 



PERFECTION — Produces great crops of large, 

 long clusters of very large, bright red berries. 

 Splendid quality. 1 year, each, 40c ; dozen, $4.00. 

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