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; S3 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. $1.50 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; S3 
per hundred. 
Gregg. The largest and best of the black caps. 
Souhegan. An early and excellent black cap. 
BLACKBERRIES. 
Owing to the liability to injury in winter, and the tendency to rust in 
summer, I have dropped most kinds, and name only two which I think 
deserve general cultivation. 
Erie. This is a new seedling which was found on the shores of Lake 
Erie several years since, and, under various tests, has proved 
itself superior to all other varieties. It is robust in growth, free 
from rust, more hardy than Taylor, very productive, fruit of the 
very largest size and best in quality, ripening early and certainly 
giving promise to fulfil every requirement. It has the unqualified 
endorsement of the most eminent cultivators. Si. 50 per dozen. 
Snyder. A very hardy, productive, and healthy kind, of good size and 
quality. 75 cents per dozen; $3 per hundred.
