CROMWELL RASPBERRY. 
The points that strike me forcibly about this new raspberry are : 
1st. Perpetual fruiting, from July 15th, through August, September and October, af- 
ter other raspberries have disappeared. » 
2d. Bearing full crops the same season planted, the fruit appearing on the canes of 
the present year’s growth, as well as on the canes of the past season s growth. 
3d. The great vigor and hardiness of the plant, the canes growing often 5 or (> feet 
high, the foliage never scalding; plants never winter killing. 
4th. The quality of fruit, which is far above the averap red raspberry. 
5th. Productiveness of plant. We have seen no variety of this class that will pio 
dUC The“olor ifdarkred ; the size is above the average red raspberry, as seen in our mar- 
kets. It is propagated from the root, like most of the other red varieties. pel doz., 
$12 per 100. 
CROMWELL. Named for the town in Connecticut where it was originated; equal 
to Tyler and Souhegan in size and quality of fruit; also hardiness of cane; vigorous and 
productive as the above named, and ./ire to ten days earlier. , ,. t th 
The originator of the Cromwell is an extensive fruit growei, and he prefers it to the 
varieties named. We are the only firm in the State of Ohio who has the right to selhthis 
stock, hence all plants from us are from the original stock. 
We have read quite a good deal of this raspberry, and wish we . co t u '^eive more_ of it 
to our readers, but as our space is limited and we have so many points to cover differ- 
ent fruits, we must omit some important ones; but we recommend this to jou as a 
superb exti'a early raspberry. $1 per doz., $5 per 100, $40 per 1,(100. 
GOLDEN QUEEN. Is evidently a close relation to the Cuthbert; it has stood the 
winter very well and fruited for six weeks. The canes made a hue growth, much better 
than an y 6 other on the farm. In size it exceeds the Cuthbert and.. .^derfully ^produc- 
five it bein^ the first raspberry of its land we could ever do anything with in oui mar 
ket;’ but it exceeds the blacks. ' Its beautiful translucunt color 
who want the finest in the market and will pay a good price. I can highly lecommencl it 
to the public. 50 cts. per doz., $2 per 100, $12 per 1,000.
