RASPBERRIES 
Ofiill the fruits Krown by the amateur or 
professional, none will Kivc Kreater returns 
tor tlie liu'.e and money expended than 
these. Ihey thrive well everywhere and 
proiluee enormous erops of fruit, whieh al- 
ways sell at s(H)d prices. W e believe there 
IS no surer road to fortune for any youns 
farmer residin? near any of the larire cities of 
the country, than to plant .several acres of 
.small fruits for market purposes. The earl- 
iest and la lest ripeninj,- varieties are the most 
profitable. altliouKh mid-season so Is should 
also be planted to (rive a succession throush- 
out the fruitiuft season. Wc send out only 
extra strong, healthy plants, which 
will give good results and satisfaction 
to our eustotncrs under ordinary gjod 
caro and conditions. When ordered by 
express, deduct lOe on postpaid price 
by the dozen.
