CUMBERLAND — We have not tested this varie- 
ty on our grounds, but it comes to us so well re- 
commended, from such a reliable source, that we 
feel safe in offering it to our customers as a 
good thing, and one it will be a great mistake to 
pass by. It is supposed to be a seedling of Gregg 
fertilized by some blackberry; having the shape 
and size of the blackberry and the flavor and ap- 
pearance of the black cap. The fruit is very 
large and quite firm. Ripens with Kansas. Sells 
for double the price of common varieties. The 
plant is perfectly hardy, very productive, vigor- 
ous and healthy. Price of plants, each, 50c; 
dozen, §4; 100, $25.

its crop in a short time. Not equal to Palmer in
