THE NEW BOYSENBERRY 
What Is 
This 
Boysen- 
berry? 
This is what the 
Introducer says: 
We are very 
happy to offer 
to our customers 
the new Boysen- 
berry. We have 
been in the com¬ 
mercial berry 
business for 15 
years, and have 
50 acres in all the 
best varieties 
grown in this 
section. The 
Boysen is by far 
the finest and 
most profitable 
berry we have 
ever had on our 
place. We intro¬ 
duced Young- 
oerries to Califor¬ 
nia growers ten 
years ago. We, as 
well as those 
growers who 
bought plants 
from us, made money with Youngberries for the first 
five or six years, because the Youngberry was finer 
than the dewberry. Loganberry and blackberry we 
were then growing. Now we are offering you the 
Boysenberry which is as superior to Youngberries and 
other berries, as the Youngberry was superior to the 
dewberry and Loganberry ten years ago; in fact, it is 
a better money maker than the Youngberry ever was, 
even when the Youngberry was new. 
The finest vine berry yet developed. An enormous 
berry with a flavor you can’t forget. Plant a few 
Boysenberries. You will be surprised at this won¬ 
derful berry. Plant 6 feet apart in rows 6 feet across. 
Price, each 25c; 5 for $1.00; 12 for $2.00; 100 for 
$12.00; 1,000 for $100.00. 
YOUNGBERRY 
Said to be a cross between the Loganberry and the 
Dewberry. An exceptionally fine flavored, very pro¬ 
ductive berry. Bears early and commands the highest 
market prices. The fruit colors well and is exception¬ 
ally sweet and large. Color, jet black. Ten plants of 
this variety will make a row eighty feet long, which 
will produce an astonishing amount of the finest ber¬ 
ries you ever saw. They will be a delight to you and 
your friends. 
They are very strong growers and should be trel- 
lised. A very simple trellis, consisting of two wires 
(the lower one 2% feet from the ground and the upper 
wire about 4 feet) is all that is required. Plant eight 
feet apart in rows seven feet across. About 800 plants 
per acre.
