June. Very excellent red raspberry. A new 
variety propagated by N. y. Experiment Sta- 
tion and recommended by them. Very large, 
prolific and vigorous. Good both for canning 
and table use. 
laxidon. A new red raspberry which origin- 
ated at Janesville, Wis. Said to be a seedling 
of Turner crossed with Cuthbert. Large, 
broadly conical, beautiful red. Ripens about 
with Cuthbert. continuing later, and in quality 
better than that variety. One of the best red 
raspberries. 
>IarllH>ro. It is a strong grower with strong 
side arms; it is perfectly hardy. The large size 
of its dark green foliage is the means of its 
early, regular and late bearing and extraordi- 
nary size of fruit; in color a bright crimson, 
and unlike others, does not lose its brilliancy 
when over ripe; of a good quality and very 
prolific. 
Shaffer (Shaffer’s Colossal). Fruit very 
large purplish red, rather soft, but luscious, 
and of a rich, sprightly flavor. A strong grow- 
er, hardy, and enormously productive. Shaf- 
fer is unequaled for family u.se, and is one of 
the best varieties for canning; season medium 
to late. 
Yellow Raspberries 
(ioldcii Queen. Large size, great beauty, 
high quality, perfectly hardy, and very pro- 
ductive; equal to Cuthbert in size of fruit and 
vigor of growth. Ripens in midseason. No 
home garden should be without it. 
Black Raspberries 
('uiiibcrlaiul. The bush is hardy, a vigorous 
grower, and exceptionally productive. Fruit 
of uniform size, and larger than any known 
black raspberry. Many specimens are from 
seven-eighths to fifteen-sixteenths of an inch 
in diameter. In quality it is equal to Gree"-, 
ripening a few days earlier than that variety. 
It is very firm and a good shipper. 
Diumond (Black Diamond). Large, very 
sweet and pulpy, yet fine for shipping and 
evaporating. Canes strong and fruitful. Early. 
Farmer (Plum Farmer). P^ruit very large, 
average nearly an inch in diameter; hush a 
very vigorous grower. Early. 
Gregg. Jet black, never falls from the 
bushes, and of first quality; canes of strong 
growth; hardy and immensely productive. 
Ohio. The greatest producer among Black 
Caps, and for canning or evaporating the most 
profitable of all. Berry not quite as large as 
Gregg; plant hardy. 
Blackberries 
It is natural for blackberries to grow much stronger than raspberries, but the mode of 
culture is about the same. Permit three or four canes to grow the first season; pinch back 
when three feet high. I'rune back to four feet. Plant in rows six to seven feet apart, three 
feet apart in the row. 
.\gawaiii. p’ruit medium size; jet-black, 
.sweet, tender and melting to the core. A very 
valuable variety for home use; being sweet 
throughout as soon as black; very hardy, 
healthy and productive. 
Blowers. Large size, jet-black, good shipper, 
best quality, unexcelled productiveness. 
Erie. Fruit very large, excellent quality, 
handsome and firm and ripens early; fruit 
uniform in both size and shape. There is no 
other berry that rivals it in combining hardi- 
ness, large size, earliness and productiveness. 
F.Idorado. The vines are very hardy and 
vigorous, enduring the winters of the far 
Northwest without injury. The berries are 
large, jet black, borne in large clusters and 
ripen well together. 
Katiibun. The tips touch the ground and 
root, thus propagating themselves like the 
black cap raspberry. The fruit is borne in 
clusters; berries very large, color intense black 
with a high polish; seeds small; flesh juicy, 
high flavored, sweet and delicious. Carries 
well to market. In season medium early. 
Sn.vdcr. A marvel for productivene.ss; fruit 
medium size, sweet and melting to the core. 
Its value is its extreme hardiness, standing the 
winters in those sections where the Kittatinny 
and Early Harvest kill down. 
Wil.son (Wilson’s Early). Very large, shining 
black, retaining its color well after picking, 
and fine for the table as soon as full-colored; 
quite firm, sweet, rich and good; ripens two 
weeks before and during the height of the 
blackberry season. 
Dewberries or Running Black- 
berries 
Jju<;rctia. The plants are perfectly hardy 
and healthy, and remarkably productive. The 
fruit which ripens with the Mammoth Cluster 
raspberry, is very large, soft, sweet and lus- 
cious throughout, without hard center or core. 
Snyder Blackberries.
