Dewberries 
These are a sort of blackberry, but the vines are 
not self supporting, as are the Blackberries. The 
usual method of propagation is as follows: They are 
set 3 feet in the row, rows 6 feet apart. Short posts 
are set about every fifth vine and a wire stretched 
about three feet from the ground. Each spring all 
strong vines are tied to the wire, and the ends that 
are too long are cut off about ten inches above wire. 
LUCRETIA. This is the best variety of Dewberry 
that we have fruited and is one that gives universal 
satisfaction. Berries are very large, in fact, being 
larger than any blackberry grown. They are jet 
black, coreless, sweet and juicy. Dewberries are free 
from rust and all other fungous diseases. Plant at 
least a few for home use.

Currants 
Fine for Jelly — Easy to Grow — Very Productive 
The Currant is one of the most valued of small 
fruits. Being very hardy, they do not winterkill, are 
easy of cultivation, requiring little care. 
PERFECTION. Cross of Fay’s Prolific with White 
Grape and combines the best qualities of both par- 
ents. In color it is beautiful bright red and of a size 
larger than the Fay; the clusters average longer and 
the size of the berries is maintained to the end of the 
bunch. It is one of the most productive Currants 
we have ever known.

ity excellent with mild flavor. Bush healthy and 
vigorous.

We cannot ship Gooseberries and Currants after 
April 10th, as the law requires that they must be 
shipped when dormant. The State Inspector makes 
a spring inspection of Gooseberry and Currant 
plants, consequently orders should be in by April 
10th to guarantee shipment. 
There’s Nothing Quite Like the Pies and Preserves 
From Gooseberries. 
Very profitable, for they are strictly for the North 
and require a cold climate; easy to plant and care 
for, and bring good returns They require feeding, 
and when given a good mulch of stable manure in 
the late fall, will repay you well.
