erican Cranberrybush 
A New Fruit for Central and 
Northern U. S. 
NEW SELECTIONS 
HIGH BUSH CRANBERRIES 
We are offering three selections of large fruited 
heavy yielding and highly desirable types of the 
American High Bush Cranberry, selected by the 
U. S. Dept, of Agriculture for their especially 
fine fruit characters as weli as their orna¬ 
mental value. This fruit is native to north¬ 
ern United States from Maine to North 
Dakota but produces well under cultivation 
as far south as the Ohio River and is not 
particular as to its soil requirements. It 
bears large, showy masses of white flowers in June followed 
by c.usters of large, brilliant red fruit in late summer and 
fall. The fruit is very high in pectin, of a brilliant red 
color, and is used chiefly for making jelly eaten with meats. 
Highly ornamental and attractive to birds. The three selec¬ 
tions were made in a plantation established by Mr. A. E. 
Morgan, president of Antioch College and now chairman of 
the Tennessee Valley Administration. The plants should be 
set about 8x8 feet apart and given clean cultivation.
