RASPBERRIES 
Raspberries are probably the most reliable of all berries to raise. 
They are pretty sure to mature a good crop and the market is never 
fully supplied with them. Plant on good, well-drained soil and cultivate 
often. Fertilize with chemicals. Some wood ashes may be used. As 
a rule, it will pay best to use manure on some other crops. Avoid 
planting Cuthbert and Herbert on river banks or in frosty hollows. June 
and Marlboro are best for these locations. A field of Cuthbert should 
yield profitably for ten years or more and the early varieties and black- 
caps are good for about five years. 
CUTHBERT. The leading variety. Canes tall, vigorous and succeed 
well on land where other varieties might fail. Berries deep red, conical 
and finest quality. An abundant cropper. Our sales of Cuthbert plants 
are nearly equal to all other varieties combined. Price: 25 for $1.00; 
100 for $3.50; 1000 for $25.00. 
MARLBORO. A fine companion for Cuthbert as it ripens two to 
three weeks earlier and is nearly thru when Cuthbert begins. Canes 
grow erect, medium height and hardy. Berries round, firm, light red 
and good quality. Price same as Cuthbert. 
ST. REGIS. The much advertised everbearer. A commercial variety 
south of New York, but suitable for home use only, in New England. 
Of good quality but not a heavy cropper. Very early. Price same as 
Cuthbert. 
IDAHO. The biggest cropper of all red raspberries, under good culti- 
vation averaging about 5000 quarts per acre. The berry is very large 
and rather acid. Season late. Idaho is a very hardy variety and is 
profitable to plant for a market that does not demand the highest 
quality. 25 for $1,25; 100 for $4.00; 1000 for $35.00. 
HERBERT. — Fine quality, large size and very hardy. Herbert has 
found favor with planters generally, during the last few years and is 
now one of the most popular of the red raspberries. Price same as Idaho. 
JUNE. One of the best varieties grown. Canes very vigorous, at- 
tractive and spineless. Ripens a few days before Marlboro and is a 
very heavy yiclder. Fruit is good quality, very large and round. Color 
light red. One of the best shippers. We are planting more June than 
any other variety. Supply of plants limited for Spring but we will have 
a large stock to offer for Fall 1921. Price $1.50 per 25; $5.00 per 100; 
$35.00 per 1000. 
ERSKINE PARK. A widely advertised everbearer of little value ex- 
cept for breeding purposes. Price same as for June. 
GOLDEN QUEEN. Like Cuthbert, except in color, which is yellow. 
No plants to offer till Fall 1921. Price same as Idaho.
