Quality Plants—Fresh Dug 
CUMBERLAND— O n e of the 
largest black raspberries known; 
its immense size, firmness and 
great productiveness entitles it 
to first consideration. Unusual¬ 
ly strong grower, throwing up 
stout, stock canes; perfectly 
hardy. The most valuable pro¬ 
fitable raspberry grown for home 
or market use. Fruits for long 
season. 
LATHAM— This is one of the 
leading varieties of the Reds. 
The fruit is large and solid, does 
not mush or break apart. The 
plants are almost disease-proof. 
Try a few of this variety, you 
will like them. A coming new 
red variety. 
PURPLE COLUMBIA —Deep purplish red, highly flavored, extra strong 
canes, wonderfully productive; berries very large. There is nothing finer 
grown in the line of fruit than this variety for table use, canning, etc. 
This variety does not sprout. 
BLACKBERRIES 
ELDORADO —Very productive and hardy; extra fine quality; sweet flavor, 
without core; fruit very large, jet black. We think this is the best of 
blackberries. 12 plants, 50c; 25 plants, $1.00; 100 plants, $3.50.
