BLACK RASPBERRIES 
Keith’s Black Raspberry Plants are twice Government Inspected 
As Healthy as Can Be Grown 
Why Plant This Year 
1. All through the country acreage is being 
cut down. Growers are going out of the 
business because of diseased fields and bad 
cultural methods. 
2. When others are going out of a profitable 
business like growing Black Raspberries, 
that’s the time for you to start. 
3. Berries will bring higher prices than ever. 
The demand for the berries is always good. 
4. It’s easy to grow Black Raspberries and 
make a good profit. Set good strong, 
healthy plants and the game is half won. 
There is little expense in cultivating and 
caring for the plants. 
CUMBERLAND— (Mid-season) 
An Old Reliable 1 with Large Meaty 
Berries 
An old reliable, productive and profitable 
Black Raspberry. Standard variety set exten¬ 
sively everywhere. Has large berries, perfect 
in shape, firm, well colored and attractive, 
ripening over a long season during mid-season 
for raspberries. Not “seedy” by any means. 
Canes are hardy throughout the North, stand¬ 
ing 26° below zero. Plants like these are more 
valuable and capable of making better growths 
for you than weaker, cheaper plants. Prices 
on page 22. 
QUILLEN-(Late) 
Late, Glossy-black, Rich Raspberry 
Flavor 
Here is a new Black Raspberry which begins 
to ripen about a week after the Cumberland 
begins. Lengthens your raspberry season 
about two weeks. Berries sweet, richly fla¬ 
vored, jet glossy-black. Canes sturdy, strong, 
upright growers, resists Anthracnose (a stem 
and cane disease) more than any Raspberry.

Why Set Keith’s Plants 
1. Keith’s Black Raspberry plants are “certi¬ 
fied” plants, that is, they have been care¬ 
fully inspected twice by government inspec¬ 
tors and have been issued a health certifi¬ 
cate. This means a great deal to you. 
2. Most diseases that wipe out the Raspberry 
business can’t be controlled by spraying. 
Careful inspection and cutting out diseased 
plants is our method of control. There¬ 
fore, start with only healthy disease-free 
plants such as we offer, and you will have a 
highly productive patch. 
3. Keith’s plants are vigorous, healthy and 
full of pep. It will cost you just as much to 
prepare your soil and set out cheaper, less 
vigorous plants. They are ready to start 
growth at once and make a productive 
patch for you. 
NEW LOGAN—(Very Early) 
The Earliest of All Black Raspberries 
New Logan is not only an early-ripening rasp¬ 
berry, but a heavy producer, therefore one of 
the best money makers in the Black Raspberry

inated, it is rapidly gaining popularity. 
Here are a few facts that make New Logan a 
leader:— 
1. Resistant to Disease—Very worthy feature. 
2. Berries ripen week earlier than Cumberland. 
3. Heavy producer—outyields Cumberland. 
4. Berries jet, glossy black. — Makes beautiful pack. 
5. Ripens its crop evenly all over the bush. 
6. Berries hold up well.—Ship or haul well to market.

than any other Black Raspberry—productive, 
early, attractive. Prices on page 22.

BLACK BEAUTY- (Mid-Season) 
Hardy, Productive, Disease-resisting 
Here is a brand new Black Raspberry 
that should find room in every garden or 
field where quality and heavy yields, 
hardiness and freedom from disease are 
desired. The berries are excellent in fla¬ 
vor, do not crumble, large in size, firm and 
attractive, bringing a premium price on 
any market. 
Black Beauty comes to us very highly 
recommended, not only by its introducer, 
but the originator, Ross Cowen, down in 
Green Co., Ind., also representatives of 
the Ohio Expt. Station, who have seen the 
variety growing and fruiting in commer¬ 
cial fields, were impressed very favorably. 
We also saw it fruiting last season on Mr. 
Cowen’s farm and were very much im¬ 
pressed with it. Prices on page 22. 
KEITH’S SELECTION OF RED RASPRERRIES 
Keith’s Red Raspberry Plants Are Twice Government Inspected. As Healthy As Can Be Grown. 
(Complete Price List on page 22) CHIEF—Most Profitable Red to Grow 
. Pictured in colors on page 23 
This new Red is a winner. We used to think that Latham was the best money maker, but 
since we and many others have fruited Chief, we find it can bring you more money per 
given area than any other Red we list. 
Consider these valuable facts regarding Chief:— 
We offer our customers a complete line of Red 
Raspberries in early to late ripening varieties 
so that for garden or commercial purposes you 
will have berries over a long period at red 
raspberry time, which follows right after 
Strawberries. Our plants are two government 
inspected, hardy northern grown and guaran¬ 
teed to reach you in good condition if ordered 
shipped before May 1st. 
THINK OF IT:— 
DELICIOUS RED RASPBERRIES right 
from your own garden every day all through 
red raspberry season. The plants require little 
space and can be pruned so they will not be in 
the way along walks and drives. 
AND REMEMBER, there is always a 
ready market for them at good prices. 
ST. REGIS—(Everbearing) 
Bears its berries on tips of new canes during 
summer and fall months. The same canes 
bear the following spring like any red rasp¬ 
berry and they ripen early. 
Berries rich crimson red, firm, medium in size 
and of the best red raspberry flavor. Don’t 
miss this opportunity to have rich, delicious 
red raspberries all summer and fall, as well as 
in the spring. Prices see page 22. 
KEITH BROS. NURSERY, Sawyer, Michigan 
1. Earliest of all reds,—brings those tarly high prices. 
2. Heavy fruiter—early to end of season. 
3. Berries best quality, firm—hold, up for 2 days. 
4. Canes hardy, vigorous growers, can’t be beat. 
5. Practically disease free—A very worthy character¬ 
istic. 
6. Berries beautiful pink or light red color. They 
hold this attractive color for at least 48 hours 
after picking while varieties turn black. 
7. Carries record yield of nearly 300 crates per acre. 
8. A new leader among the reds. 
9. Read Page 23. 
With the above characteristics we back it up, Chief is the Red for you to plant this Spring. 
Just think of growing a red raspberry that will bring you a premium of every crate you 
sell. That beautiful light red attractive color and that excellent flavor, they bring in the 
money. And the color doesn’t turn to that dull dark red like most reds. For 48 hours 
or more they still retain their beautiful color. This is one of Chief’s most important 
characteristics. 
Chief is now considered the best Red for commercial or home use. And look at our re¬ 
markably low prices on Chief this season. Turn to page 23 for colored picture of Chief.

T ATHAM (Mid-season)—Wonderful for Size and Production 
Pictured in colors on page 23 
Latham is a very popular variety among growers and fruit buyers. They have a large 
berry, firm, and does not crumble, but its flavor is not as good as Chief, and they are a 
little off in color. They stand up well after picking but turn dark after 12 hours or so, 
while the Chief retains their color four times as long. Size and productiveness is where 
Latham leads. Probably 75% of the reds grown in this great berry center—Berrien 
County—are Latham, but Chief is gaining a foothold fast. Prices on page 22. 
CUTHBERT (Mid -season)—The Old Reliable with a Real Raspberry' Flavor 
This variety is an old one,—used to pick it when we were wee lads, course that isn’t saying 
we’re so old yet. But, nevertheless, Cuthbert is a reliable late red with highly flavored 
berries that stand up well after picking. They are very hardy and yield large crops of big 
berries,—next to the Latham in size. Prices on page 22.
