EATON RASPBERRIES. (Reduced Size.) 
ID n A new re< * raspberry that is entirely dis- 
1 I1C I-LtfilOIl ivaspoerry tinct from all other varieties, fruiting on 
the new growth in the hill as well as on the regular fruiting canes. A variety 
that is at once perfectly healthy in root and cane and foliage. A strong grower 
and hardy, coming through the past severe winter in prime condition. A 
long season fruiter and an immense cropper, by far outyielding any red raspber¬ 
ry we have ever seen, while the fruit is extraordinary large and handsome, firm, 
and of the highest quality. 
Plants of this new and valuable variety were received in April, 1902, from 
Amos Garretson, of Pendleton, Ind., who found the seedling growing on his 
farm and cultivated it for fruit. To give them here the severest test possible 
we set them on about the poorest ground we had, a stony hill alongside the R. R,. 
that never had or has been manured or fertilized in any way. The plants have 
not been cultivated since 1902, or mulched, but allowed to do what they would 
without further attention except to pick the fruit each season. Denied the ad¬ 
vantages of even ordinary culture or winter protection it still outranks anything 
in red raspberries we have even seen or heard of. We think it not too much to
