BLACKBERRIES 
The Dish of Kings 
My Blackberries are grown only from root cutting plants and 
are extremely heavy rooted and hardy. The fruit is simply delicious. 
Plant in rows 6 to 7 feet apart, plants 3 to 4 feet apart in the row. 
ELDORADO. One of the very hardiest and best. Berries jet black, 
sw r eet and delicious. Excellent for eating, canning, cooking and 
market. Berries have no hard core and keep well after picking. 
Per 5, 35c; per 10, 55c; per 25, $1.10; per 100, $3.85. 
EARLY HARVEST. The old standby, very early. Does well in 
Missouri, Kansas and Oklahoma. Per 5, 30c; per 10, 50o; per 25, 
$1.00; per 100, $3.25. 
SHYDER. This is the hardiest Blackberry grown. Fruit medium 
size, good market sort, will stand the cold winters of most any of 
the northern climates. Per 5, 35c; per 10, 55c; per 25, $1.10; per 
100, $3.85. 
DEWBERRIES (Coreles* Blackberries). Sweeter, juicier and larger 
than Blackberries. They are vigorous and hardy and the fruit 
is jet black in color. The bush is a vigorous grower, low trailing 
and resembles blackberries. My plants are grown from thrifty, 
vigorous root cuttings and are much superior to the ordinary 
1-yr. or 2-yr. old plants. No. 1 Strong plants. Per 5, 35o; per 10, 
60c; per 25, $1.25. 
CURRANTS 
Best for Jelly 
Easy to grow. Grow most any place and are hardy. 
Contain pectin or fruit sugar in large quantities so 
make wonderful jelly. Also good for preserving, jams, 
pies, tarts, etc. Plant 4 feet apart each way. 
HINTS ON GROWING 
Good cultivation and pruning will more than double 
the size of the fruit. Cut out old and stunted wood 
from old bushes and leave thrifty shoots at regular 
distances. Keep out weeds and trash from around the 
bush. 
IMPROVED PERFECTION. Queen of all. These 
beautiful red currants with the long stems and 
bright red berries are the largest of all red varie¬ 
ties. Highest quality, too.

GOOSEBERRIES 
For Pies, Jam, Sauce 
A lifetime of fruit! My plants are full fruiting, 
easy to grow and produce abundantly. They grow well 
in full sun or partial shade. 
DOWNING. The largest gooseberry. Downing is a 
large handsome pale green berry of splendid quality. 
I have seen Downing berries this year an inch in 
diameter. You can have them, too. 
HOUGHTON. I like Houghton because it is sweet and 
tender. The bushes are always heavily loaded with 
fruit. Pale red when fully ripe. 
JOSSELYN or RED JACKET. Also called the Old 
English Gooseberry. Slightly smaller than Hough¬ 
ton, being bright rich crimson in color and sweeter 
than either of these other two berries. Plant a few 
of these. I have and I like them.
