TRUE-TO-NAME SMALL-FRUIT PLANTS

Cuthbert. I doubt if there is any variety that will surpass it (see page 28) 
RASPBERRIES, continued 
“It is the best variety among the reds.” The plant 
is a strong grower, with vigorous, healthy foliage, 
and I unhesitatingly recommend the Cuthbert for 
home use or field culture. Season of ripening 
medium to late. 
KING. Red. This is the earliest red Raspberry. 
With many it is the early berries that make the 
money. Round, of large size, light crimson, firm and 
of good quality; a seedling of Thompson and ripens 
about the same time but is larger and more produc¬ 
tive. It makes a good growth and is very hardy, 
standing cold and heat where many others fail; its 
bright color and firmness make it a favorite with 
those who grow Raspberries for market. 
ST. REGIS. Red. This new addition to the list 
of red Raspberries has sprung into prominence al¬ 
most over-night, and it is a very valuable addition. 
Cumberland. 
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, and 
the next spring a big crop, equaling that of any red 
Raspberry known. In size, quantity and quality, 
to say nothing of its fall-bearing qualities, it is 
ahead of anything I know of as a spring- and 
summer-bearing variety. About the middle of 
August it commences to set fruit on the young canes, 
and bears continuously 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 af¬ 
ford to ignore this, the 
most wonderful of all red 
Raspberries. (See p. 28.) 
GOLDEN QUEEN. 
Yellow. Undoubtedly the 
best of the yellow va¬ 
rieties, and the fact that 
it is a seedling of the 
Cuthbert is a strong rec¬ 
ommendation within it¬ 
self. It is very productive 
and hardy; the berries are 
large in size, beautiful 
pale yellow in color and 
excellent in quality; me¬ 
dium to late and con¬ 
tinues a long time in 
bearing.
