Catalogue and Ketail Price List of 
Select Raspberries 
The plan most commonly recommended for laying out the raspberry plan- 
tation Is to plant In rows from six to eight feet apart and two to three or 
more feet in the row; but recent experience has convinced us that there is a 
much better plan; we now plant raspberries in hedge rows; plant one foot 
apart in row and rows twelve feet apart. The dense hedge row smothers out 
all weeds in and near the row, rendering cultivation easier and quicker; keep 
this space between the rows well and frequently cultivated. It is a well 
known fact that raspberries are always larger, finer and sweeter if grown 
partially in the shade; the hedge row furnishes this condition. It also stays 
the young canes against the wind twisting and breaking them, resulting in 
more and better canes, more and finer fruit, and rendering easier and quicker 
cultivation. Give this plan a trial, and you will soon be convinced of its ad- 
vantages over the old way.

blackcap we have any knowledge of. Ripens all its fruits perfectly. Last 
berries as large as the first. Has small seeds, with much pulp and rich juice,

use the dry, seedy varieties can use these freely. Originated in Iowa, and Is of 
Ironclad hardiness. 5c each, 40c per dozen, $2.00 per 100, $12.00 per 1,000.
