Mulberries 
While the fruit of the Mulberry is of no commercial value, 
the tree is planted largely for shade. For swine and poultry 
the fruit is of much value, and where planted in the poultry 
yard it will give both fruit and shade and is very desirable for 
this purpose. The tree is of quick growth and is particularly 
suited to the Southwest.

Berry Vines 
Practically all varieties of berries are easy to grow and will 
thrive in many locations, though they prefer rich, fertile, well- 
drained soils. If soil is poor, it should be fertilized heavily if 
best results are to be had. The vines bear the second year 
after planting and yield the most delicious of fruits.

productiveness of the dewberry. Fruit large and of de¬ 
licious flavor. Should have another variety planted with 
it in order to develop perfect fruit. Haupt is good for this.
