YOUNGBERRY 
This new type of fruit was produced scientifically by cross¬ 
ing the loganberry with the dewberry, and it combines to a 
remarkable degree the most desirable qualities of all other 
berries. Its sweetness makes it a fine fresh table berry com¬ 
parable to the strawberry. It also has the pleasant flavor of 
the red raspberry, the juiciness of the loganberry, and the jell¬ 
ing and canning qualities of the blackberry. 
The season for ripening in Southern California is fromi the 
middle of May to the middle of July. No special method of 
culture is required, but good soil cultivation and a moderate 
amount of moisture will give desired results. Set the plants 
5 or 6 feet apart in rows 8 feet apart for commercial use. In 
the home garden the plants can be trained much higher than 
in the field and they can, therefore, be set closer together in 
the rows. Plant during January, February and March. 
Each 15c, 6 for 75c, dozen $1.00, 25 for $2.00, postpaid. 
RASPBERRIES 
Set the plants 4 feet apart in the rows and support on 
parallel wires. When the new growth reaches a height of 2 
or 3 feet pinch out the tips to induce lateral growth. The 
laterals should also be pinched off. After the crop is harvested 
remove the old wood so that all the energy of the plant will be 
forced into the new growth.

STRAWBERRIES 
A & M Progressive 
The A & M Progressive will 
bear a full crop the first year 
if properly handled. Because it does not make many runners, 
the plants should be set close, say 10 to 12 inches in the row and 
about 22 inches between rows. This distance apart requires 
20,000 plants to the acre. Encourage runners and new plants 
by frequent irrigation and fertilizing. Never cut off the run¬ 
ners, but rather train them along the row. 12 plants 35c, 
25 plants 65c, 100 plants $2.00, postpaid.

HOTKAPS are patented wax paper 
cones that completely cover each 
plant—the only way to fully pro¬ 
tect them from frost. They are an 
“individual hothouse for each 
plant,” protecting them not only 
from frost, but from wind, rain, 
ground-crusting, and insects as 
well. This is your assurance of 
earlier, bigger crops and early-to- 
market prices. 
HOTKAPS are quickly and eas¬ 
ily “set ” One man can set over 
3,000 of them a day. The illustra¬ 
tions on the left show how they 
are placed with the aid of the 
HOTKAP Setter and Tamper.
