EVERBEARING 
BLACK RASPBERRY 
This is a wonderful black 
raspbery, and will actually 
bear fruit from June until 
killed by frost in the fall. 
The vines are literally load¬ 
ed with fruit in all stages— 
from bloom to ripe fruit. It 
creates great surprise eve¬ 
rywhere it is grown, for it 
has no equal as an everbear¬ 
ing variety. Great novelty. 
Appreciated by everyone. 
Price of plants, 15c 
each, .'5 for 30c, 6 for 
50c. 1 5 for .$1 .postpaid, 
or 50 for $3 by express. 
St Regis yields a crop of fruit the season it is planted. Plants set in early April gave ripe berries 
on June 20th of the same year.For four weeks thereafter the yield was heavy and the canes continued 
to produce fruit freely without intermission until the middle of October. The berries were large and 
beautiful, firm and full flavored to the very last. 
St. Regis is of pure American blood and of ironclad 'hardihood, the canes enduring the severest 
cold uninjured, and are wonderfully prolific. Unlike Belle de Fontenay, Henrietta,Marvel of Four Sea¬ 
sons, and all other so-styled everbearing red raspberries that have preceded it, (and many others that 
are not everbearing) its foliage never suffers by sunburn or scald, nor is its growth of cane impai- od 
by the heat and drouth of summer. 
In addition to the bright crimson color and large size of the fruit, it is so firm and rich in sugar 
that it will stand shipping two hundred miles, arriving at market in first class order; and can readily 
be keptin perfect conditionfor several days after being gathered. 
The merits of this truly reliable everbearing raspberry may be summarized as follows : 
1. It is the earliest of all red raspberries. 
2. It is wonderfully prolific, the first, or main crop being far greater than that of any other red 
variety known. 
3. It gives a crop of fruit all summer and autumn, fruiting on the old canes in generous quanti¬ 
ties until late in August.By this date berries begin to ripen upon the young, i. e„ current year’s canes, 
which continue to produce berries in increasing numbers until late autumn: in fact,until severe frost. 
4. Berries are bright crimson, of large size and of surpassing quality- rich, sugary,with full rasp¬ 
berry flavor. They are of exceedingly meaty, firm texture and keep in good condition longer, after be¬ 
ing gathered, than any other red raspberry. As a shipper it is unexcelled. 
■5. The canes are of strong, stocky growth, with a great abundance of dark green, leathery leaves. It succeeds upon all soils, whether light and sandy 
Or cold heavy clay, and the canes are absolutely hardy.

FALL FRUITIING TREE RASPBERRY See Color Plate, Page 81 
We are pleased to be able to offer this Fall Fruiting Tree Red Raspberry. 
This berry was originated in the state of Illinois, and the originator who has 
been growing it for several years, and marketing its fruit at fancy prices, has 
been very careful not to allow it to be offered to the general public. It is really 
a remarkable variety, and we have pleasure in offering this grand new berry. 
To fully describe it we can do no better than to give the originator’s descrip¬ 
tion, under date of Nov. 27th. 
“This is to certify that I have been growing the new Fall Fruiting Red 
Raspberries for seven years, together with several of the other standard varie¬ 
ties, and can truthfully say that they never fail to have the largest crop of any 
red raspberry that I have ever grown. They are not only more productive than 
any other variety, but the berries are much larger, firm; bright flame color, and 
of the finest flavor. 
The canes branch like trees, and every branch is laden down with its heavy 
crop of fine.large berries,which always bring the highest price in the Northern 
markets, where nothing but strictly first-class fruit is wanted- They always 
sell for 50c. to $1 per 24 pint crate higher than any other variety I have grown, 
first shipments bringing $5.00 to $5.50 per 24 pint crates on the Chicago mark¬ 
ets. The vines are more free from disease than any variety I have ever grown. 
They are very vigorous and stocky, many of the canes being 4’/(> inches in cir¬ 
cumference and 8 tolO feet high. The last season’s canes had an enormous 
load of berries during the months of June and July, and [the current year’s 
growth, or new vines, bore a heavy crop of berries during the months of Aug¬ 
ust, September. October, and November, making it an almost everbearing 
raspberry. The flavor of the fall crop is just as fine as the June crop, and say¬ 
ing nothing about the fall crop, I consider this the most profitable variety 
grown. From % of an acre I cleared $94.00 for what I shipped to Chicago, and 
we used all we wanted on our table, and canned a lot for winter use beside. We 
have gathered 6 crops from this same field, and it is just as fine now as ever, 
only the growth was not quite so vigorous, on account of the dry season.” 
We know this berry will create a great sensation wherever grown, and we 
want every one of our customers who grows fruit of any kind, either for mark¬ 
et or home use. to try this one. Strong; plants, 15c each, 3 for 30c, O for 
60c, 15 fori $1.00, postpaid. By Express, not prepaid, 50 for $8.50. 
100 for $4.00.
