Blackberries 
Blackberries will do well on any soil 
that is rich and well drained. For 
field culture they should be planted 
four feet apart in the row with the 
rows six feet apart. This requires 
about 1,800 plants per acre. 
EliDOHADb. This is one of the 
most profitable varieties of Black- 
berries under cultivation today. It i.s 
extremely hardy and a very strons 
grower. Canes are stocky and very 
productive of large jet black berries, 
flavor excellent, making it very desir- 
able for iiome use. There is nothing 
in the world quite as good as black- 
berry jam or pies, and If you are with- 
out Eldorado Blackberries you are 
really missing something good. It is 
a very profitable commercial variety 
as it is a heavy yielder and a good 
quality shipping berry. Price, $3..50 
per 100; $30.00 per 1000. 
MISKSERE.VU. This early black- 
berry is by far the most profitable 
variety that has appeared since the 
advent of the Wilson over thirty years 
ago. It originated in Northwestern 
New York, and Is grown successfully in 
very cold climates, without protection, 
never being injured in the least. In 
quality it is exceptionally sweet, rich, 
melting and luscious, being without 
core. The canes are of exceedingly 
strong, upright habit. They attain a 
very large height if unchecked, and 
are so stout as to always remain erect. 
Foliage large, deep green, abundant and entirely free from rust. Its season is early to 
midseason, growers will not go wrong by planting Mersereau. Price, $3.50 per 100 • 
$30.00 per 1000. 
BLOWER. A very large Blackberry of finest flavor and jet black color. Fully 
as large as Dewberries. The canes grow upright and are perfectly, hardy. This variety 
is one of the most productive under cultivation. Begin ripening in July and continues 
late. It always sells for highest market price. Price, $3.50 per 100; $30.00 per 1000. 
MERSEREAU. This early blaok- 
WrLSON. This wonderful old variety is the heaviest yielding blackberry grown. The 
berries are beauties, being very large and jet black in color. The flavor is delicious and 
the Wilson is far ahead of any other variety for home use. The quality of the berries 
cannot be surpassed and they will stand long distance shipping with the best of them 
Price, $3.00 per 100; $25.00 per 1000.
