Downing". Large, pale green, of splendid quality for both cook¬ 
ing and table use; bush vigorous and usually free from mildew. 
Josselyn. Large sized, smooth, prolific and hardy, red berries 
of best quality. The freest from mildew. 
The New Giant Red Currant 
DjpfS V The introduction of Red Lake by the Minnesota 
State Fruit Farm marks a big step forward in 
Currant culture. It stands head and shoulders 
above any variety formerly grown in the Northwest. The berries 
are extra large and the bunches long and well filled to the tip. 
The exceptionally long stems make them easy to pick. The bushes 
are thrifty and extremely producive. It’s easy to grow and you 
will enjoy picking the big long bunches. Ripens early midseason, 
but holds on over a long period so it can be used or marketed as 
desired. It brings top prices on the market and is a splendid 
money-maker. We suggest you order early as the supply is limited. 
Pay. Uniform, easily picked, exceedingly productive. 
Red Cross. Large size, long clusters, mild flavor. 
Red I>ake (New)—See Below. 
White Grape. Very large, yellowish white; very mild and pleas¬ 
ing flavor. Makes an attractive table appearance when mixed 
for dessert with a red kind. 
Wilder. Bunch and berries very large; moderate acidity. An 
immense yielder, always dependable. 
Small Fruits Section 
TI. TI TR 17 Bramble fruit like blackberries, rasp- 
berries, etc., should have all old 
wood (older than the previous season’s growth) cut out 
close to the ground each spring and the past season’s 
growth should be trimmed back to 3 or 4 feet in height. 
All of the old canes should be removed and should be 
burned. 
Mulching of currants and gooseberries will give good 
results. A strawberry bed should have a light coating two 
inches deep of coarse hay, or straw that is free from weed 
seed, after the ground has just frozen ; and in the spring 
just about the time growth starts, this covering should be 
raked between the rows and allowed to remain there until 
the fruit has been harvested. Then it should be removed 
and cultivation be resumed. 
The piquant Gooseberry. 
CURRANTS 
Hardy, easily cultivated ; popular for table use, jellies, etc. 
4 feet apart in rich ground; cultivate well and prune out 
wood. Dust with hellebore, for worms.
