-;- between red and black Raspberries, and is the best one of its class. Ver)- 
.strong-growing, hardy cane, often an inch or more in diameter and branching very fre(dy; tre¬ 
mendously productive of e.xtra-large purplish red berries. A rich table berry and one of the best 
for canning. The color is against it for market, but when well known everybody wants it. and 
small growers wlio have a select family trade find it very profitable. Price, 50 cts. per doz., Si.50

blackcap Raspberries 
After growing every variety in .America I have reiected all but the three very best to cover 
season from early to late, and name them in order of ripening. 
PALMLR. early varieties; vigorous-growing, free-branching, hardy cane, 
- wonderfully productive; medium to large jet black berries of excellent quality. 
\’ery valuable on account of earliness, large size and great yielding qualities everywhere. Price, 
50 cts. per doz., Si for 50, $1.50 per 100. 
KANSAS, ^oxt to Cumberland, the strongest grower of all; extremely productive of extra- 
-— - large black berries, firm and solid, and of very attractive api^earance. The one 
great midseason berry for family use or market the whole country over. Price, 50 cts per doz 
Si. 25 for 50, $2 per 100. 
CUMBZ/RLAND. T'!”® llie one great blackcap of all—a sort of Concord-Bartlett-Bald- 
-—-—-;- win-Elberta-Abundance combination of strong qualities seldom found 
combined in one variety. The cane is of extra .strong growth, that so far as I know has never 
been affected with disease of any kind. Wondrously productive of great, rollicking, big, glo.ssv 
black berries, somewhat elongated, often at a distance reminding one of large blackberries. A fine 
shipper and of excellent quality, a inoney-maker in the market patch and a delight in every family 
garden. Blackcap.s are increasing in popular demand, and manv more bushels of them" can be 
sold than of red Raspberries in most markets They are easily'ancl cheaply grown, yield enor- 
mously, and sell at fine prices always. Cumberland is best of all as a sure mo’nev-maker. A wcll- 
esLabhshed field will last six to ten years without renewing Those who have no't already planted 
this grand berry should do so lliis season, sure. Note the reducetl prices for this seasoli: Price, 
50 cts. per doz.. Si for so, $1,50 per joo. 
A MONEY-MAKING COMBINATION 
can be had from planting Dunlap and Midnight strawberries; Worthy, Cumberland and Loudon 
raspberries; Wilder currants; Josselyn gooseberries; Ward and Promo blackberries: Palmetto 
asparagus ; \\ inter rhubarb, and a few hardy peaches and Japan plums.
