Select Raspberries — Continued 
better shipper. In size it excels Gregg by almost 25 per cent, being extra 
fine for canning and evaporating. The canes, too, resemble Gregg, but stand 
extreme cold very much better; free from disease, upright in growth. Price, 
Be each, 50c per dozen, $2.50 per 100, $15.00 per 1,000. 
CUMBERLAND — This new berry is a very valuable acquisition. Its hardi- 
ness has been proven, and will thrive anywhere that blackcaps can be grown. 
The quality is very simi-ar and fully equal to Gregg. In spite of its unusual 
large size the fruit is possessed of great firmness, and is thus well adapted 
for standing long shipments. It follows Palmer and Souhegan and precedes 
Gregg a short time, making it a mid-season variety. The bush is exceedingly 
healthy and vigorous, throwing up stout canes, well adapted for supporting 
their loads of large fruit. Price, 10c each, 75c per dozen. $3.00 per 100, 
$20.00 per 1,000.

THE NEW CARDINAL, RASPBERRY — This wonderful berry Is a surprise 
in the fullness of its merits — its great growth, extreme hardiness and the 
exceeding productiveness of its choice, red, rich, pure flavored berries. It will 
pay. It is not a novelty, but a variety of great merit. The New Cardinal is 
claimed to grow ten feet high and bear in proportion. Leading horticulturists 
who have seen this berry say it is one of the wonders of the century, so far 
exceeding all others as to put it beyond comparison. Judge Wellhouse, presi- 
dent of the Kansas State Horticultural Society, said at the meeting of the 
society that the introduction of the Cardinal raspberry would add millions to 
tho wealth of the farmers of the country because of Its inherent great vigor 
and exceeding productiveness. Four years' trial on our grounds has verified 
every claim In the above description. Price, 10c each, 50c per dozen. $3.00 per 
100, $20.00 per 1.000.

HAYMAKER — An Ohio seedling of the Shaffer and Columbian type; fruit 
a little more acid and is later than either, prolonging the season. An enormous 
producer, excelling the Columbian. It is very much superior to Shaffer or 
Columbian; not so dark colored and is firmer than either of these varieties; 
does not crumble; stands up well In shipping; quality good, either for table or 
canning; produces very large crops; stands drouth or extreme cold splendidly; 
a close second to the Cardinal; a little larger berry, but not quite so good lit 
cane or foliage. The last two seasons this variety has been outdoing the New 
Cardinal, and it deserves first place. Very much superior to all others of its 
class. Same price as New Cardinal.
