BLACKCAPS. 
CUMBERLAND- — The largest black raspberry known, has been well tested 
in nearly all sections the past seasons giving thorough satisfaction. In hardi- 
ness and productiveness it is unexcelled by any other variety. In size the 
fruit is simply enormous, far surpassing any other sort. The berries run 7-8 
and 15-16 of an inch in diameter, and are of such handsome appearance that 
their fruit sold for 10 cents per quart when other varieties were selling for 
5 to 7 cents per quart. In spite of its unusual large size the fruit is possessed 
of great firmness and is thus well adapted for standing long shipments. It 
follows Palmer and Souhegan and precedes Gregg a short time, making it a 
mid-season variety. The bush is exceedingly healthy and vigorous, throwing 
up stout, stocky canes well adapted for supporting their loads of large fruit.
