Childs' Allsummer— An everbearer, commencing to ripen its large berries in July and continues until killed by autumn 
frosts. The plants are strong and vigorous, growing three to five feet in height, standing erect without stakes or other 
support. Foliage very large and rank, dark green 
above and silvery white underneath. In hardiness 
nothing can surpass it, as it has never been injured in. 
the severest climate. It is immensely prolific, the 
berries being of great size, and dark red in color; duality 
extra fine. Mrs. Stowe, of Montana, says * “ It has 
fruited for five years and borne a full crop each year, no 
matter how hot the weather. Our plot is 45 feet in 
length by 15 feet in width, besides a single row 115 feet 
long. From this plot and the row we picked last, year 
fully 11 bushels of berries. For five years the yield has 
been very uniform. In 1889 the yield during July was 
244 boxes; August, 175 boxes; September. 27 boxes, an 
abundance of green fruit being killed by frost Septem¬ 
ber 25th. In many sections where the season is long 
enough its October crop is the largest.” To see it at its 
very best it must have a moist soil or plenty of water. 
Sou chet Everbearing 
White— An extra large 
berry of a beautiful light 
amber almost pure white 
color. Plant has the same 
general habit as Childs’ 
Allsummer, but it is bet¬ 
ter for dry soils. Perfect¬ 
ly hardy, vigorous and a 
great cropper, both sum¬ 
mer and fall. The fruit, is 
of extra fine quality. In 
fact we think it the finest 
flavored of all Raspber¬ 
ries, therefore'most desir¬ 
able for the home garden. 
Its beautiful color con¬ 
trasting with red or 
black varieties makes a 
very appetizing dish 
when served • together. 
In many respects this is 
the very finest Raspberry 
in cultivation. --
