GLADSTONE RASPBERRY. 
A mother variety from Ohio. The introducer speaks of it as follows: 
1 he Gladstone originated with the veteran and well-known horticulturist, Charles Car- 
penter ol Ohio. He sent us plants to test about four years ago. They were given no 
particular culture, and alfnost forgotten, until fruiting time, when passing that wav we 
were attracted by a buzzing of bees. Looking toward the source of the music of the busy 
insects, we noticed the plants of Gladstone, the strong canes bowed down with their bur- 
den of ripe fruit, and yet blossoming freely, the blossoms being covered with honey-bees 
i his most remarkable of all raspberries we now offer for the first time. 
ihe color is dark red; the size is above the average red raspberry, as seen in our 
markets. It is propagated from the root, like most of the other red varieties. $2 per 
uoz . , §14 per lull.
