Munger Raspberry. 
M UNGER. This berry was the marvel of the hun- 
dreds of visitors who saw it during the meeting of the 
Miami County Horticultural Society. As a late "fancy 
market” berry it certainly stands without a peer. 
The fruit of Hunger is black and resembles Gregg 
very much. It is a better flavored berry than Gregg, 
tougher in texture, and therefore a better shipper. In 
size it excels Gregg by almost 25 per cent, being extra 
fine for canning and evaporating. Its season of 
ripening is from two to five days later than Gregg, and 
it has a special faculty of withstanding drought and hot 
sun. Last season, when most other berries were dry 
and seedy, Munger ripened up sweet and juicy, and 
readily brought an advance of 50 cents per bushel 
over other kinds. The canes, too, resemble Gregg, 
are free from disease, upright in growth, and have 
never yet been affected by the cold of winter. 75 cts. 
per doz., $3 per 100. 
GOLDEN QUEEN. Evidently a close relation of 
Cuthbert. It has stood the winter very well, and fruited 
for six weeks. The canes made a fine growth, much 
better than any other on the farm. In size it exceeds 
Cuthbert, and is wonderfully productive, it being the 
first Raspberry of its kind we could ever do anything 
with in our market; but Golden Queen exceeds the 
blackcaps. Its beautiful translucent color attracts the 
eye of those who want the best in the market, and will 
pay a good price for a particularly luscious and beau- 
tiful berry. 50 cts. per doz., $1 per 100, $7 per 1,000. 
KANSAS. There are” few if any of the blackcap 
Raspberries that impress us more 
favorably than this. It succeeds 
wherever tried, and will fast, super- 
sede such varieties as Gregg. For a 
market berry we believe it has no 
equal. Its handsome appearance 
will always command a ready sale; 
in quality it is as good as the best. 
Plant is a strong, vigorous grower, 
with healthy, clean foliage. Can 
highly recommend it for general 
planting or a home garden. Kansas 
produces more canes and branches, 
covered with a thick blue bloom, 
and is much larger, than Gregg ; 
makes a vigorous growth through 
the entire season, holds its foliage 
uninjured till frost, makes plenty of 
strong tips that are absolutely hardy 
to stand the changing climate, pro- 
duces a fruiting spur from every 
bud, and a berry as much larger 
than Gregg as those of 
Gregg are larger than 
Souhegan. It is of a jet- 
black color, firm texture, 
and delicious quality. 
50 cts. per doz., $1 per 100, 
$7 per 1,000; transplants, 
75 cts. per doz., $1.50 per 
100, $10 per 1,000. 
EUREKA. Ripens a 
few days later than Sou- 
hegan and earlier than 
Ohio. Fruit large and firm, 
almost equaling Gregg in 
size. Quality is of the 
best. Berry free from 
bloom and very attractive 
in the measure, making it 
a splendid seller. The 
canes make a strong, up- 
right growth, with a 
bright, healthy color re- 
sembling Ohio, and are 
quite as hardy. One pe- 
culiarity of Eureka is that 
it seldom throws more 
than four new canes each 
season to the hill, and 
never less than two; thus 
it is not necessary to thin 
the canes to the proper 
number, as nature per- 
forms this task. Its ability to bear fruit is truly won-, 
derful. 50 cts. per doz., $1.50 per 100, $10 per 1,000. 
NEMAHA. Charles A. Green says: "We have had 
Nemaha growing near Gregg and other varieties, and 
it has proved much earlier than Gregg, Souhegan 
and Tyler, bearing a full crop of fruit where 
Gregg was almost a total failure. We have claimed 
for Nemaha that it was hardier than Gregg, and three 
years’ good trial proves our claim to be very well 
founded.” Such an opinion from such a source is valu- 
able to fruit-growers. 50 cts. per doz.. $1 per 100, 
$8 per 1,000.
