I again offer to the pubhc this valuable, hardy, red Rasp¬ 
berry, of the Antwerp family, but not the true Red Antwerp 
of the nurseries and market gardeners, as the Allen is perfectly 
hardy without Wunter projection in any climate where it has 
been tried, up to 45 deg. N* ~n. Mr. Allen has cultivated it in 
his farm gardens, of wlrch I now have the charge, for ten years 
past, and it was only offered Bn; sale last year, after fully test¬ 
ing its hardihood, prolific bearing, and large, high-flavored fruit. 
Its strong growth of cane requires no support', and it is every 
way a most valuable variety, not known elsewhere than in its 
present grounds, and places to which it has been transplanted. 
Price 10 cents each, in quantities less than sixty. For five to 
eight, dozen, $1 per dozen For one hundred or more, $7 per 
hundred; payment remitted with the order.

This is a Canister, with a patent attachment, designed for pre¬ 
serving fruits and vegetables of all kinds in a perfectly fresh 
state, with their natural shape, color, and flavor. It is termed 
the “Self-Sealing Can,” and so called because soldering is 
dispensed with in closing up the aperture of the can. ami be 
c ;u>e, by the simple turning of a cap, the outward atmosphere 
is wholly excluded. . . 
With these cans, and directions given with them, such fruits 
as Apples, Pears. Peaches, Strawberries, Raspberries, Black¬ 
berries, &c., and such vegetables as Tomatoes, Green Peas, 
Green Corn, Beans, and, indeed, every species of either, may be 
preserved lor years in their fresh state, without the addition of 
salt, sugar, or acid, or any preservative property whatever. 
Many of these fruits decay and go to waste upon the trees, 
bushes, and market-places. Now they may be saved and used, 
out of their season, for table or pastry purposes. 
With this Canister they can be preserved economically, as 
sugar and spirits may be dispensed with. 
Health is greatly promoted by the free use of fresli fruits and 
vegetables, while,dn the contrary, digestion is greatly impeded, 
and the digestive organs impaired, by the use of preserved 
fruits so completely saturated with sugar as are the ordinary 
sweetmeats preserved by families. .. . 
These cans may be used year alter year. Full directions for 
preserving fruit and vegetables accompany t he cans.
