BOYSENBERRY- 
FINEST VARIETY FOR CANNING 
Many claim Boysenberries are even 
better after canning. They retain their 
illusive flavor, beautiful color and 
shape wonderfully. Note how whole 
the berries are in the jar pictured 
above. 
A Cluster of Boysenberries 
All on One Branch. Actual Size! 
The Largest and 
Finest Vine 
Berry Ever 
Introduced. 
Our plants come directly from 
the Knott's Berry Place, in Califor¬ 
nia, the original introducer of this 
variety. They are the largest sin¬ 
gle producer of berries and berry 
plants in California, and have 
had many years experience in 
this line. Boysenberries on their 
farms are bringing gross returns of 
S800 to $1,700 per acre. We have 
shipped plants from them before 
and know that they grade care¬ 
fully and ship only large, true to 
name, healthy plants. We are 
very pleased to be able to furnish 
you these fine plants and know 
you will be more than pleased 
with them. Prices are the same as 
if ordered direct from California. 
HIGHER PRICES 
These great berries make a won¬ 
derful appearance on the market. 
The customer will buy the first 
time out of curiosity and then 
come back for more day after day 
throughout the season because 
they are so good. Of course this 
finer fruit sells for more than oth¬ 
er varieties, although it actually 
costs you less to produce it. This 
is not just a statement but is 
actually the case with growers 
who are already marketing this 
berry. 
UNLIMITED MARKET 
Because Boysenberries 
are superior to other vari¬ 
eties of berries for canning, 
there will be a fast-growing 
market for them. First, the 
housewives will want them 
for canning, and as soon as 
there is quantity enough in 
any given district the can- 
ners are going to want 
them. This is a very profit¬ 
able variety to produce for 
the canners (1) because the 
fruit is large and easy to 
pick; (2) because it bears 
heavy crops, even under 
adverse conditions and (3) 
because it is more easily grown 
than many other varieties of ber¬ 
ries. Plant Boysenberries. Grow¬ 
ers who have them are making 
money and we want you to, also. 
Plant now while they are new.

Some Astonishing 
HARDY AT 19° BELOW 
Mr. G. W. Knorr, Finchville, Kentucky, made a trial plant¬ 
ing ot Boysenberries in 1935. Half of these were trellised up 
in the fall where the vines would get full force of the winter. 
The other half was left on the ground until spring. Mr. 
Knorr says that although temperature went to 19^ below zero 
and that peach trees, cherry trees, and even some apple 
trees were killed, his Boysenberries were absolutely undam¬ 
aged, and that both lots produced equally well this summer. 
He was highly pleased with the fruit, but says that the crop 
was not as good as it would have been if it had not been 
so dry during the fruiting season. 
News about the 
THE COUNTRY GENTLEMAN OBSERVES 
rhe following paragraph is taken from an article on Boy- 
iberries by Mr. Sidney Cates in the August issue of the 
untry Gentleman: 
'The Boysenberry, hoverer, mukei a more rigorous grourth and 
duces fruit much larger than the very large Youngberry. The 
ungberry is limited commercia'ly to about Washington, D. C.. 
tude. I use the word 'limited' advisedly, because last winter the 
es which should have borne t lis summer were killed right down 
the ground. Boysenberries 'ylanted alongside, however, came 
ough without a sign of damajf. The temperature went down to 
low as 17° below zero. Sd' ^arently the Boysenberry, though 
ginating in the semi-tropics) I going to be safe from cold at

New Boysenberry 
DROUTH RESISTANCE 
Mr. Briscoe, of Gainsville, Texas, who set out some of our 
Boysenberries in 1935, recently wrote to relatives in California 
that practically everything on his place had dried up during 
the drouth and heat and dust storms this past summer except 
the Boysenberries, and that they had done remarkably well 
under the circumstances and had produced a nice crop of 
fruit. 
If these berries produced at all under these conditions, you 
can imagine what they will do under a favorable season. 
Another Texas grower wrote us that with irrigation he had 
produced some very large berries, and that he had found 
six which measured two and one-half inches each.
