Ol'MUK.RI.AXD 
Cumberland. Very large, firm, 
sweet and very good; splendid for 
any purpose; very vigorous, 
healthy and hardy. A little earlier 
than Gregg; one of the best vari- 
eties. 5c each; SOc per dozen; $3.00 
per 100; $25.00 per 1,000. 
Plum Farmer. Large to very 
large, sweet and juicy, but firm. 
Medium size, early and very pro- 
ductive. Splendid for every pur- 
pose; the most vigorous, healthy 
and hardy of any variety we have 
tested; a new and most promising 
variety. 10c each; 7Sc per dozen; 
$3.00 per 100; $25.00 per 1,000. 
Purple Cap Varieties 
Cardinal. Large, dark red, firm; 
with an agreeable, rich flavor which 
develops to perfection in cooking. 
There is no better variety for can- 
ning or jam; it ripens rather late. 
The canes are very strong and vig- 
orous, with few thorns, and very 
'free from diseases. One of the hard- 
iest and most productive of all 
Raspberries. Sc each; SOc per 
dozen; $3.50 per 100. 
Haymaker. A rival of the Card- 
inal; large, dark red, firm, excellent; 
l-ery vigorous and hardy. Claimed 
o be the most profitable Raspberry 
->n earth. 5c each; 50c per dozen; $3.50 per 100. 
Red Varieties 
These multiply by suckers and sprout all over the ground near them, so they must 
confined to narrow rows by running the plow through frequently during the grow- 
ing season. With proper care and cultivation they excel all other Raspberries in 
quality, and equal them in productiveness. 
King. Generally considered the best early Red Raspberry. Berries large, bright 
red, moderately firm. It ripens with the earliest black variety. Canes are hardy, 
productive and vigorous. 5c each; SOc per dozen; $3.00 per 100. 
Loudon. Very large, beautiful dark crimson, splendid quality, and very produc- 
tive. It endures our oldest winters without protection. One of the- very best of the 
Red Rasjiberries. Same price as King. 
Colorado Ironclad. Medium to large, bright red, sweet and delicious, but too soft 
for market use. Canes are very healthy, vigorous and hardy. A splendid variety for 
home use. Ripens with King. 5c each; SOc per dozen; $2.50 per 100. 
Juneberries 
Improved Dwarf. This is one of our most wholesome fruits. A delicious fruit 
to eat out of hand or for pies and canning. Perfectly hardy and never fails to bear. 
Fruit resembles the Blueberry and is borne in attractive clusters. Should be in every 
garden. 20c each; $1.80 per dozen. 
Blackberries 
Practically the same general directions apply as for the raspberries. Our plants 
are root-cutting plants, and arc worth tenfold more to the fruit grower than sucker 
plants from old, exhausted patches; be sure you get the genuine nursery propagated 
lilants and you will succeed. The Blackberry is a stronger bush than the raspberry 
and should be planted in rows 8 feet apart, and from 2 to 3 feet apart in a row; other- 
wise, its culture is the same as for the raspberries.
