Raspberry Plants Are Grown 
for Plants Only, All Our 
Raspberry Plants are Twice 
State Inspected Each Year ^ 
To grow real good Raspberry plants you cannot “burn the candle on both 
ends.” That is, you cannot grow Raspberries for fruit, and dig plants off the 
sides of the rows. Plants like that will be weakened by fruiting. Our red 
Raspberry plants are grown two years, and then dug. They are not allowed 
to fruit during this time. We start them in this way. We set out a field of a 
certain variety, and care for them and fertilise them through the growing sea- 
son. The following spring, they are all cut way back even to the ground, and 
allowed to come up again. This cutting off prevents them from bearing, and 
makes better, stronger plants with much better root system. These rows are 
dug that fall after a good hard frost, with a digging machine, and taken 
direct into cellars, where they are graded. The largest, and strongest, and best 
rooted plants are graded out, and these are what we call the one-year bearing 
size. They really are two years old, but we call them one-year bearing. Our 
transplants, two years old, are gotten by setting out nice thrifty, one-year plants 
in the nursery row, and grown until fall and then dug. These are set far enough 
apart to make heavy transplants that will bear a good many berries for you 
the same year you set them out in your own field. Raspberry plants that we 
dig and grade in the fall are not stored. They are taken outside and heeled 
in all winter. We do not like storage plants. All our Raspberry plants are 
perfectly hardy. 
Latham, The Big Famous 
tom a Knt n bS Red Raspberry 
Although this is a comparatively new variety it is entirely past the experi¬ 
mental stage, and we unhesitatingly recommend Latham as one of the very 
best Red Raspberries ever grown. This variety originated at the Minnesota 
State Fruit Breeding Farm and is being grown extensively in Minnesota, the 
Dakotas, and Canada, and has never been known to winter-kill even though 
exposed to 45 degrees below zero. Latham is a tall, vigorous grower, canes 
extra heavy, foliage dark green, entirely free from disease. Ripens with Cuth- 
bert and enormously productive. Berries much larger than any other Red 
Raspberry, many of them one inch in diameter. Color good, quality of the 
best, full Raspberry flavor. Excellent for shipping or home use. 
NEWBURGH, New Red Raspberry 
NEWBURGH was introduced by the New York Experiment Station a year 
or so ago, and all indications are that NEWBURGH will become the leading 
commercial Red Raspberry. 
Because— 
1. It has so far proven immune to mosaic. 
2. Fruit very large, firm and holds its size. 
3. Very productive. Yield 30 per cent greater than Latham. 
4. Ripening season a few days earlier than Latham. 
5. Extremely hardy. 
They are still high in price, but try a few and get started with them.

The foliage of a plant is its workshop. Good fo¬ 
liage is essential to good crops, poor foliage means 
a poor crop. The clean, healthy foliage of “Chief” 
is one more reason why “Chief” is a leader. 
When strawberries are about gone and common 
Raspberries still ten days off, in comes our new 
friend “Chief” and bridges the gap. These first 
berries of the season are mighty welcome—on the 
market they bring extra money.

“Chief” outyielded even Latham in these official tests. With a 
patch of “Chief” in the garden, vou’ll have plenty of de¬ 
licious canned Raspberries all winter long. “Chief” is blessed 
with superior flavor. On the table fresh, with sugar and cream, 
or for canning, “Chief” sets a high standard. It is rich, bright 
red, high quality. “Chief” has been tested over a wide area 
in the past ten years and its behavior has been carefully watched. 
It has proven hardy, a heavy cropper, excellent quality, a good 
shipper, resistant to disease, and in addition it is 10 days early. 
One of the most valuable of all the late introductions in the line of red 
Raspberries. The habit of growth is a bushy nature; will produce berries the 
first year in the fall, and a fall crop the following spring and again in the fall. 
St. Regis resembles Chief; its fruit is similar to that variety in quality, flavor 
and appearance. In September, long after Raspberries are out of season, St. 
Regis will bear a full crop of fruit, which commonly sells for seven to eight 
dollars for a 24-pint crate. It you have a market at hand where you can dis¬ 
pose of the fruit, you will find St. Regis a very profitable investment when 
grown on a commercial scale. If you have not the time or the ground to grow 
St. Regis for market, be sure to plant at least a few bushes in the garden and 
keep your table supplied with all you can use.

New YOUNGBERRY 
This new berry is so much different from any berry that is 
grown in most parts of the country. It is a cross between the 
Loganberry and Dewberry. Color of fruit is a rich wine color 
Size 1 to 1 >/2 inches. Flavor is pleasant, sweet, with the tart 
ness of the blackberry. Excellent for table use, canning, jellies, 
pies, and for wine. The plant is a rank grower. Withstands cold 
and heat, adapted to a wide range of soils, a great producer. 
Try them in your locality. They will be the talk of your neigh-
