RASPBERRIES. 



To keep a Raspberry bed in good productive condition, the old, weak and dead 

 wood should be cut out every season, to give strength to the young shoots for the 

 next year's bearing. In Spring the weakest suckers should be removed, leaving 

 five or six of the strongest in each hill. The ground should be spaded, and a top 

 dressing of manure given. 



Protection. To guard agamst injury by the Winter, the canes may be tied to 

 stakes and covered with straw, or they may be laid down in the Autumn, and covered, 

 with a few inches of earth, leaves, litter, or branches of evergreens. 



Price, 75 cents per dozen, except where noted.
