Blackberries 
Agawam. A sweet Blackberry, about the size of Snyder. Early, hardy and pro- 
ductive. Does not turn red after being: picked. 50c. per doz., $1 per 100, $8 per 1,000. 
Eldorado. In quality finest of all cultivated Blackberries, surpassing even the old 
Wachusett. Fruit is of good size, early, and the canes perfectly hardy. With us it 
has not been very productive, but we know of fields near by, on heavier soil, where it 
produces bountiful crops. 50 cts. per doz., $1.50 per 100, $12 per 1,000. 
Mersereau. Named by Professor Bailey, of Cornell University. He thus describes 
it in Cornell Bulletin, No. 99 : "A variety resembling Snyder, from which it was 
derived. Several years ago the originator noticed an extra large, strong bush among 
his Snyders, and began to propagate from it. He is now changing his whole planta- 
tion to this variety. It is one of the most promising varieties 1 know.” The points of 
superiority over Snyder are given as follows: "Extreme hardiness, larger size and 
greater productiveness; holds color better after picking and brings more per quart. 
The quality is excellent and fruiting season long.” We are pleased with appearance of 
fruit, but do not believe it is any relation to Snyder. 75 cts. per doz., $4 per 100. 
Ninnewaski. A large late variety. Hardiest of the Lawton type. Fruits until 
frost. 50 cts. per doz., $1.50 per 100, $10 per 1,000. 
Rathbun. This berry fruited with us the last season, giving us the largest fruit 
we had. Plant gives evidence of Dewberry blood. 50 cts. per doz., $3 per 100. 
Snyder. Early, hardy and productive. The old reliable — always to be depended 
on for a crop of medium sized berries of good quality. Probably more money has 
been made on this variety, in this latitude, than on all others combined. 50 cts. per 
Lucretia Dewberry 
Properly grown and handled, this should prove 
profitable. Its large size, earliness and superior 
quality make it a very salable market fruit. It can 
be grown on poor land, and one crop will pay for 
the land several times over. 50 cts. per doz., $1.50 
per 100, $8 per 1,000.
