Raspberries 
Kaspberrios do well on any soil that will pro- 
duce a good corn crop. Land should be ihor- 
oujchly prepared and well enriched. Keep well 
cultivated and free fi'om weeds and suckers. 
As soon as they have done bearing, cut out the 
old wood, to give more vigor to the young canes. 
Plant In rows 6 to 8 feet apart, and Z\i to 4 feet 
in rows for field culture.
