BLACK RASPBERRIES 
Cumberland. Last season we fruited this grand new blackcap 
quite largely. We find it all the introducers claim for it. The 
fruit sold readily last season at an average of 3 cents per quart 
above Kansas, Gregg and similar varieties. The berries are very 
large, jet black, of finest texture and quality ; quite distinct from 
anv other variety now in general cultivation. As soon as this 
variety is generally known it will be largely planted. In season 
it is about with Kansas, but blacker and finer seeded. 50 cts. 
per doz., $2 per 100, $20 per 1,000. 
Conrath. A popular, productive and hardy variety from Mich- 
igan. Similar to Kansas in size and color, and a few days earlier. 
50 cts. per doz., $1 per ioo, |8 per 1,000. 
Cromwell. The earliest blackcap. Ripens its crop in a short 
time. Not as productive as Palmer. 50 cts. per doz., $1 per 100. 
Eureka. Similar to Conrath and Kansas in size and color, but 
very distinct in flavor. 50 cts. per doz., $1.50 per 100, $10 per 
1,000. 
Gregg. Too well known to need description. Not perfectly 
hardy, but popular in market, and often quite profitable. 50 cts. 
per doz., ft. 50 per 100, $10 per 1,000. 
Hilborn. Mid-season, jet black, productive and profitable. 50 
cts. per doz., $1 per 100, $8 per 1,000. 
Kansas. Large as Gregg, jet black, medium early, perfectly 
hardy, and of excellent quality. Plant a most vigorous grower 
and an abundant bearer. A very desirable, popular and profitable
