RASPBERRIES. 
This valuable fruit should receive more attention, both for family use 
and for the market. Under proper treatment it is very remunerative, 
and with less trouble than with other fruits. As this fruit does not bear 
long transportation, every market should have its local supply. Price, 
unless noted, 75 cents per dozen; $3 per hundred. 
Marlboro. A new, remarkably vigorous and productive red variety. 
Shaffer's Colossal. A cross between the red and black, introducing 
a new type; remarkably vigorous; of largest size, productive and 
.excellent; color, dull red. Si. 50 per dozen. 
Cuthbert. In size, quality, hardiness, productiveness, and adaptation 
to various soils it is worthy of highest praise. 
Herstine. For home use this is not surpassed; the berries are of 
largest size, bright red, and of best quality. 
Golden Queen. A sport from the Cuthbert, having all the excellen- 
cies of its parent and the added beauty of its translucent amber 
color. Being vigorous and of good quality, it will entirely 
supersede the delicate Brinkle's Orange. 75 cents per dozen; $3 
per hundred. 
Gregg. The largest and best of the black caps. 
Souhegan. An early and excellent black cap. 
BLACKBERRIES. 
I can name but one kind, which for hardiness, freedom from rust, 
and other good qualities, deserves general cultivation in New England. 
Snyder. A very hardy, productive, and healthy kind, of good size 
and quality. 75 cents per dozen; S3 per hundred. 
LUCRETIA DEWBERRY. 
This trailing blackberry was found in West Virginia, and is of 
largest size, often one and one-half inches long, sweet and luscious 
to the core, and is better in quality than any of the high-bush family. 
Said to be hardy and productive as Snyder. $1 per dozen; $4 per 
hundred.
