BIG MONEY MAKER 
LUCRETIA DEWBERRY 
Lucretia Dewberries are bringing big money. 
They ripen a week or ten days ahead of com¬ 
mon blackberries, the bul kof the crop har¬ 
vested before other blackberries start to ripen, 
so sell at very high prices. 
The Dewberry belongs to the blackberry 
family, and the Lucretia is the best of them 
all. The large berries are incomparably bet¬ 
ter than any blackberry grown; of unequaled 
excellence; sweet and luscious throughout, 
and of glossy black color. They are very pro¬ 
ductive, and most profitable of all fruit crops 
to grow. The Lucretia has received the high¬ 
est endorsement and highest praise from the 
best horticulturists in the country. Its trail¬ 
ing habit renders it less liable to winter-kill. 
Propogates from the tips, like black raspber¬ 
ries; does not spread or sucker. 
There are two methods of growing the Dew¬ 
berry. One is to set the plants 4 feet apart 
in the row, with rows 6 to 7 feet apart. Allow 
them to grow along the row in their natural 
way, removing all the new growth until after 
blooming time, and then allow only enough 
new vines to grow to provide for the next 
crop, and at the same time shade the ripen¬ 
ing fruit. 
The other method of growing is to use short 
posts and wire. Grown in this way the fruit 
is much easier to pick, but not quite as early. 
The posts need to be only 30 to 36 inches 
high. Use one wire and in the spring tie all 
canes onto same, holding the moff the ground. 
Let the new canes lie on the ground through¬ 
out the growing season, covering them slight¬ 
ly where the winters are severe. Cut away 
old wood in spring and the new canes on wire 
or old wood can be removed soon after har¬ 
vesting the crop. About 1,700 plants are re¬ 
quired to set an acre.

ICEBERG, OR WHITE 
BLACKBERRY 
It is not merely a curiosity, for in addition 
to being a real novelty, it is a berry of ex¬ 
traordinary quality. These shining cream- 
white berries, when mixed with jet-black ones, 
make a most attractive dish. The bushes are 
good strong growers and very productive. 
For best results this variety should be plant¬ 
ed nea rother blackberries.

LATHAM RASPBERRY 
A Big Money Maker 
The Latham is conceded to be the best late 
red raspberry. It has more points of merit 
and has come into general planting more 
rapidly than any other raspberry ever intro¬ 
duced. It is vigorous in growth; withstands 
the winters in Canada without covering; and 
exceptionally free from mosaic and other dis¬ 
eases. The large berries, some running over 
an inch in diameter, and the deep red color 
make it most attractive, and it is the most 
productive variety grown. Growers are be¬ 
ginning to realize that no other late red rasp¬ 
berry will make them so much money, so 
surely and quickly, as the Latham. One nine 
acre field of Latham in Minnesota produced 
an average of $1,000 per acre each year for 
five years, and similar reports are coming 
from all sections of the country.
