KANSAS. {Cap). The best blackcap of its 

 season and a great improve- 

 ment upon Gregg. It is popu- 

 lar and a profitable market sort. 

 Its handsome appearance and 

 flavor make it desirable for the 

 home garden. Berries as large 

 as Gregg, firm and of fine 

 quality ; canes of strong growth, 

 perfectly hardy and exceed- 

 ingly prolific, Midseason. 

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

 $8.00, 



It is a pity that this should lack 

 the firmness of flesh and bright color essential to 

 a successful market berry as it is otherwise such a 

 very fine sort. It is, however, one of the best for 

 the home garden where it is very desirable. The 

 berries are'large and beautiful, dark crimson, rich 

 and juicy. Canes are strong and hardy, healthy 

 and very productive. Ripens shortly in advance 

 of Cuthbert. Doz., 35c. ; 100, $1.50 ; $1000, $12.00. 



MUNGER. {Cap). A superb black cap, of 

 great size (fully one-fourth larger than Gregg), 

 round, jet black, firm and of fine sweet flavor. 

 It is indeed a fancy berry and sells readily and 

 well at sight. The canes are strong, upright 

 growers, entirely hardy and bear large crops regu- 

 larly. It is one of the best for canning and evapo- 

 rating. Late. Doz., $35c. • 100, $1.50. 



LOUDON. 



MILLER. Combines the best qualities of a 

 profitable market berry — earliness, firmness and 

 bright color united to hardiness, vigor and pro- 

 ductiveness. The canes are of stout habit, abso- 

 lutely hardy and yield heavy crops yearly. 

 Whilst not of the largest, the berries are yet of 

 good size, round, very firm, and of a bright 

 crimson color which brightness they retain for a 

 long time after being picked ; quality fair to 

 good, sweet and pleasant. It is a popular sort, but 

 superceded by the King ; it's superior in every 

 way. It should be given strong soil or well fer- 

 tilized in order to give canes that are strong 

 enough. Doz., 30c. ; 100, $1.25 ; 1000, $8.00. 



JAPANESE RASPBERRY OR WINE- 

 BERRY. The highly ornamental character of 

 this beautiful Raspberry from Japan has given it 

 popularity, and it is a decided acquisition to any 

 garden. The canes are robust growers, perfectly 

 hardy and enormously prolific, thickly covered 

 with purplish red hairs. The fruit is borne in 

 large clusters, of a beautifvil translucent appear- 

 ance, running through all the shades of amber to 

 crimson as the berries ripen, very brilliant and 

 attractive. In quality it is quite distinct and of a 

 brisk sub-acid, rich and sprightly. It is excellent 

 canned or preserved, and for jelly-making or wine- 

 making is unsurpassed. ' It ripens early in July 

 and continues long in bearing. It grows any- 

 where and can be planted in any out of way place 

 in the garden and thus transform an unsightly 

 spot to one of beauty and yield a bountifvil sup- 

 ply of splendid fruit as well. Doz. , 50c. ; 100, $2.00. 



LOGANBERRY. 



This very unique and remarkable berry should find a place in every garden. The peculiar combina- 

 tion of the Raspberry and Blackberry in its make-up gives it an additional interest to fruit-growers. 



The berries are of great size — equaling large blackberries, which they resemble in form and 

 structure, but are deep reddish maroon in color. In flavor it is rich and sprightly — a mingling of the 

 raspberry and blackberry, the raspberry predominating, mellowed and refined, yet distinct from either 

 — melting and without core. The flavor is so luscious, novel and rich, the berry can not fail to please 

 everybody as a desert fruit. For canning it is superior to all the other small fruits, and for jellies and 

 jams it is unequaled also. The canes are of strong, vigorous growth, semi-trailing in habit, and are 

 clothed with an abundance of large, dark green, leathery foliage. What gives special value to this 

 novel fruit is its earliness — ripening as it does at the close of the strawberry season, and in advaitce 

 of all but the very earliest raspberries — continuing each year to give ripe berries for three weeks. It 

 is scarcely firm enough to endure distant shipment well. Good tip plants, doz., $1.00; 100, $5.00. 

 Transplanted plants, doz., $1.50 ; 100, $8.00. 1000 rates upon application. By mail at dozen rates.
