The NEW BOYSENBERRY 
P* A 
Finest Vine 
Berry Ever 
Introduced. 
Some Astonishing 
HARDY AT 19° BELOW 
Mr. G. W. Knorr, Finchville, Kentucky, made a trial plant¬ 
ing oi 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 
The following paragraph is taken from an article on Boy¬ 
senberries by Mr. Sidney Ca'tes in the August issue of the 
Country Gentleman: 
"The Boysenberry, however, makes a more vigorous growth ana 
produces fruit much larger than the very large Youngberry. The 
Youngberry is limited commercially to about Washington, D. C., 
latitude. I use the word 'limited' advisedly, because last winter the 
canes which should have borne th if summer were killed right down 
to the ground. Boysenberries planted alongside, however, came 
through without a sign of damage. The temperature went down to 
as low as 17 0 below zero. So apparently the Boysenberry, though 
originating in the semi-tropics, s going to be safe from cold at 
least well up into the Corn Belt.

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. 
FINEST VARIETY FOR CANNING 
Mahy 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.

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.
