CAMPBELL'S E4RLV GRAPE— New early black grape, as early as Moore's Early, of good size, 
not liable to crack, free from mildew. In dessert quality it is unrivaled by any of our present list of 
early market grapes. The vine is of a robust, vigorous habit of growth, the buds having stood a tem-

Columbus and Chautauqua Gooseberries, see description page 4. 
Cumberland Raspberry. 
This new Raspberry is no doubt the finest and largest blackcap on the market. Is wonderfully pro- 
ductive, far surpassing any other variety in this respect. In quality it is similar and fully equal to Gregg, 
which we have considered one of the finest blackcaps grown. Time of ripening is midseason; is an un- 
usually strong and vigorous grower, well adapted for supporting its load of large fruit; remarkably free 
from disease. 15 cts. each, $1.50 per doz., $10 per 1C0. 
GAVLT — New. An ever-bearing berry of large size, hardy, a good grower and productive. It ripens its 
first crop with Gregg, which is followed by another large crop on the new canes. An unusually 
fine and profitable berry. 30 cts. each, $2.00 per doz. 
SUPERLATIVE— New. Of European origin. Fruit large and conical; dull red, stout canes and very 
prolific, besides being hardy. As berries are very handsome and keep well, it is a valuable variety. 
25 cts. each, $2.00 per doz. 
White Blackberry "Iceberg." 
One of the greatest novelties of the age. There is no reason why a white blackberry should not be 
superior to a black one. It is said the Iceberg is very productive, the fruit being of medium size and trans- 
parent, that the seeds (which are small) can be seen in the berry when ripe; fruit grows in large clusters. 
Said to be earlier, sweeter, and much better than Lawton. Strong plants, 20 cts. each, $1.50 per doz.,

RATHBUN- This berry has already become known and has established a high reputation locally. The 
fruit grows on long stems in clusters which enables it to be easily gathered. The berries are large, 
with large pips and small seeds. They have no hard core, in fact, no core is perceived in eating them, 
all is soft, sweet, luscious, with a high flavor. It is superior to all the well-known varieties of black- 
berry in cultivation, in quality. The fruit is jet black in color, with a high polish. A large proportion 
of the berries will measure from an inch and a quarter to one inch and a half in length, and the whole 
crop is uniform in size. 15 cts. each, $1.50 per doz., $8.00 per 100. 
Japanese Wineberry. 
This magnificent fruit has excited a great deal of interest and wonder. This interesting plant belongs 
to the raspberry family; perfectly hardy and prolific. The fruit is borne in large clusters, and each berry 
is at first tightly enveloped in by the large calyx, forming a sort of burr, which is covered with purplish red 
hairs so thickly as to present the appearance of a moss rose bud. These open and turn back, exposing 
the fruit in all its beauty, ripening in July and lasts for two months. 10 cts. each, $1.00 per doz; 
extra size, transplanted plants, strong, 15 cts. each, $1.50 per doz.
