TRUE-TO-NAME SMALL-FRUIT PLANTS 
Kansas Raspberry (see page 34). Handsome, firm and of fine quality

ST. REGIS 
This new addition to the list of red Raspber¬ 
ries has sprung into prominence almost over night, 
and it is a very valuable addition. It succeeds upon 
all soils, whether light sandy or heavy clay, and the 
canes are absolutely hardy, always and everywhere. 
In growth it is strong and stalky, with a great 
abundance of healthy, dark green foliage; it is the 
only variety known that gives a crop of fruit the 
same year planted, and two crops a year thereafter. 
Plants set in early spring will give a small crop of 
fruit the fall following. The Long Island Experi¬ 
ment Station, says: “St'. Regis Raspberry this year 
repeated its record of last year, bearing a good crop 
in October, although it bore heavily in early sum¬ 
mer.” About the middle of August it commences 
to set fruit on the young canes, and bears continu¬ 
ously until frost. The berries are large, beautiful 
and attractive. If you have failed with every other 
variety of Raspberries, either north or south, plant 
St. Regis and succeed, whether growing for home 
use or market. You cannot afford to ignore this, 
the most wonderful of all red Raspberries. It is one 
of the best for main crops which is not in the least 
affected by its fall-bearing qualities. (See colored 
illustration, page 32.) 
We Pack to Overcome Distance 
The 5,000 Americus received from you last spring were very 
good.— Emil Newwitee, Kitsap Co., Wash., July 16, 1914. 
Good! We Are Always Glad to Hear From You 
The Strawberry plants I ordered from you came on April 10. 
They were fine plants and are growing nicely at this time. I 
shall order from you again.— Chas. G. Howell, Monongalia 
Co., W. Va., May 20, 1914. 
Does Not Expect to Lose a Plant 
GOLDEN QUEEN. Yellow. Undoubtedly the 
best of the yellow varieties, and the fact that it is a 
seedling of the Cuthbert is a strong recommendation 
within itself. It is very productive and hardy; the 
berries are large in size, beautiful pale yellow in color 
and excellent in quality; medium to late and con¬ 
tinues a long time in bearing. 
LOUDON. Red. This is a very good variety for 
home use or local market. The canes are vigorous, 
quite hardy and productive. The fruit is of good 
size and has a pleasing subacid flavor. 
MARLBORO. Red. This is the standard early 
variety. As a shipper it is unsurpassed, as it is 
noted for its firmness both on the bushes and in 
shipping. It is productive of large, crimson, juicy 
berries. The bush is an upright, vigorous plant. 
It is greatly appreciated in New Jersey. The Colo¬ 
rado Agricultural Experiment Station says: “The 
best red variety for Colorado.” The Cornell sta¬ 
tion and the Maryland station give good reports 
of it. 
PERFECTION. Red. A new Raspberry from 
New York. It is a very tall, strong grower and has 
stood 20 degrees below zero without injuring the 
buds. Berries are of excellent quality, highly col¬ 
ored, very bright scarlet, mammoth and uniform in 
size, and grow in clusters. Immensely productive 
and continues to bear through a long season. W. O. 
& H. W. Davis, leading commission merchants of 
New York City, say of it: “It is the best Rasp¬ 
berry ever shipped to New York. ” This season, 
on a low market, this variety sold at eight cents 
per pint, while other varieties were bringing but 
four and five.” This is a berry worthy of your con¬ 
sideration, and we believe you will not be disap¬ 
pointed in it. 
Very Complimentary 
I have been advised to write for your catalogue of Strawberry 
plants by one of your customers, who says that Mr. Allen 13 
the straightest nurseryman that he has ever found, and 
I know that he has tried a good many for he has 
been in the fruit-growing business 
a number of years.—S. J.
