DANIELS HARDY 
RASPBERRIES 
No factor is more important in determining 
whether or not a raspberry growing enterprise 
will be profitable than the securing of disease-free 
hardy, northern grown plants. Daniels plants not 
only fill the bill in these respects but are grown 
and handled so that they reach the planter in 
perfect growing condition. 
Chief 
(Mosaic-free) 
The Coimtry’s Greatest Early Red 
CHIEF is generally conceded to be the out¬ 
standing early, hardy red raspberry for the 
Northwest. A seedling of Latham, it has prac¬ 
tically all the good points of its parent and in 
addition many others, for it surpasses Latham in 
hardiness, yield, quality, disease resistance and 
starts ripening from a week to ten days earlier. 
In describing “Chief” Professor W. H. Aider- 
man, Chief in Division of Horticulture, University 
Farm, writes as follows: 
“As compared to Latham, it possesses the advantage 
or ripening ten days earlier, it is much more resistant 
to such diseases as mosaic and mildew and slightly 
more resistant tO' the disease of anthracnose and spur 
blight; it is distinctly more resistant to low winter 
temperatures than Latham; it has outyielded Latham 
in two carefully conducted tests at the Fruit Breeding 
Farm; it is of better quality than Latham; it is a more 
vigorous plant maker and produces stockier canes. As 
far as I can see the only point where it does not attain 
superiority over Latham is in the size of the berry. 
The fruit is somewhat smaller but is large enough for 
commercial purposes and is, on the whole, rather more 
attractive than the older variety.” 
Chief makes an ideal running mate for Latham, 
furnishing an early berry while Latham furnishes 
a late one. Throughout the northern part of Min¬ 
nesota and adjacent severe sections Chief has 
proven especially popular, for in sections where 
most other varieties kill to the snow-line Chief 
comes through without any injury whatsoever. 
We have a splendid stock of Chief plants, all 
carefully inspected several times by the State 
Nursery Inspection Service and guaranteed to be 
absolutely true to name and free from serious 
diseases.

A field of Daniels Mosaic-free Chief Raspberries 
Latham 
(Mosaic-free) 
The Country’s Greatest Late Red 
This, the finest and most profitable of all late 
red raspberries, was also originated at the Minne¬ 
sota Fruit Breeding Farm. Because of its marked 
superiority it has replaced all older late red rasp¬ 
berries throughout the East as well as in the 
Middle-west. 
Latham is a strong grower with exceptionally 
vigorous canes, well able to support its enormous 
loads of berries. Hardy throughout most of the 
Northwest without protection. The berries are of 
splendid quality, ship well and are famous for 
their large size, frequently an inch in diameter. 
Daniels plants reach you in perfect growing 
condition, full of pep and ready to give you the 
finest raspberry growth and productivity you have 
even seen. Wherever our plants are used they 
at once become the standard to which other rasp¬ 
berries are compared. 
Our high quality, disease-free Latham plants 
make an ideal foundation for a lastingly profitable 
raspberry patch. 
Prices: 75c for 12; $1.25 for 25; $3.50 for 100; 
$22.50 per thousand. 
ANCIENT BRITON 
BLACKBERRY 
The extreme popularity of this splendid black¬ 
berry is well deserved, for it is not only the 
hardiest of the better blackberries but is the best 
in quality. Plants are vigorous and very produc¬ 
tive. Probably the best for home and commercial 
plantings in the North. 
Prices: $1.25 for 12; $2.00 for 25; $6.00 for 100.
