Logan Black Cap 
Highly Resistant to Mosaic and Other Virus Diseases 
Every grower of Black Cap Raspberries should have a good block of this Logan, variety. It is the best 
early Black Cap grown, and besides it yields as heavy a crop as any midseason variety. It withstands dry, 
hot weather better than other Black Cap and this was especially apparent during this past summer. 
Most Dependable 
Black Raspberry 
The Logan Is not a new variety 
here in Ohio as it has been grown for 
a number of years in one of our 
largest commercial berry 
sections. Among these 
growers this variety 
through sheer merit has 
replaced other standard 
kinds until at present 
more than three-fourths 
of the plantings are New 
Logan. The berry ripens 
one week earlier than 
Cumberland; it is a 
heavier yielder and the 
glossy black berries are 
as large as that variety, 
well through drought and in fact the 
last picking has always proven as 
fresh and free from seediness and 
tendency to crumble as the first. 
RESISTANT TO MOSAIC AND 
OTHER RASPBERRY DISEASES 
One of the New Logan’s outstanding character¬ 
istics is its resistance to Mosaic and other raspberry 
diseases. It seems to outclass all other black rasp-

berry varieties in this respect and this 
is one of the primary reasons why it 
is gaining popularity among the 
growers who depend on 
black raspberries for their 
livelihood. 
LARGE SIZE BERRIES 
HOLD UP WELL IN 
DRY SEASONS 
Another good feature of 
the New Logan is that it 
ripens its crop quickly and 
does not string out over a 
period of time, thus making 
picking much easier. 
A thrifty grower and although not 
as upright as Cumberland our growers 
find this no objection if the summer 
shoots are topped higher than normal. 
Remember, “New Logan" is the 
finest early Black Cap now grown. Its 
early ripening and heavy yields also 
make it the most profitable variety. 
We have a fine lot of absolutely disease free 
New Logan tips to offer for early spring.

My New Logan field came through with a 
bumper crop in spite of the winter and dry 
weather. The berries held their size and were 
glossy black, not seedy even the last of the 
crop. The New Logan bushes stayed dark green 
throughout the dry weather, while Cumberland 
beside them turned yellow and their berries 
smaller and quite seedy. Because of earliness 
the New Logan is the money maker in our lo¬ 
cation. 
Black Beauty stood the winter in good shape 
on the sand and superior to Cumberland in 
standing the drought. The berries larger and 
heavier crop than the latter.

Our New Logans are certainly loaded this year. 
It is becoming more evident all the time that 
New Logan is more drouth-resistant than Cum¬ 
berland. J. S. SHOEMAKER,
