CURRANTS. 
We make a Specialty of Currants, and grow 
plants in very large quantities. 
A MONEY MAKING CROP. 
The Currant is very easily grown and adapts 
itself to any kind of soil, but at the same time 
no plant responds more quickly and gener¬ 
ously to high cultivation. Our bushes are 
planted in rows six feet apart and about three 
feet apart in the rows. In our experience there 
is no other small fruit that will pay as well as 
Currants when well taken care of. We have 
three acres in bearing from which we sold the 
past season 28,000 pounds, amounting to nearly 
$l,0o0, or a net profit, after deducting expenses 
of nearly $200 per acre. The larger part of 
our currants are “ Victorias.” 
To destroy the Caterpillars or “Currant 
Worms,” dust Hellebore powder ou the leaves 
the moment any of the worms appear. Wait, 
for a few days and if any of the worms are 
found repeat the dressing. 
More Currants are needed for making jelly 
than for all other purposes combined. For this 
purpose there is nothing to be gained by grow¬ 
ing the large varieties, such as Cherry or Fay. 
What you gain in size you lose in productive¬ 
ness. And the canning establishments and 
anyone who lias had experience in making 
Jelly, will pay no more per pound for Cherry 
Currants than for Red Dutch. Grocers, and other dealers in fruit, how¬ 
ever, usually pay aoout a cent per pound more for large Cherry Currants 
than for the smaller varieties. 
VICTORIA CURRANT— The Victoria is the most popular variety of 
Currants. The bush is of great vigor and hardiness and the fruit is of 
good Size and produced on long stems. In our experience it is by far 
the most productive variety, bushes of tho same age as Cherry or Fay's 
yielding nearly double tho quantity of fruit. Another great advantage 
Is that It Is late In ripening and therefore, can be marketed after other 
Currants are gone, when much higher prices are obtained. We have 
always sold our later pickings at higher prices than those sold first. 
They are a very profitable crop. One-year-old plants, postpaid, each 10e., 
1 dozen 40c., dozen 75c. For prices of larger quantities see below. 
Large Plants—We offer some extra largo3 year old plants of Victoria 
Currants that will bear the year after setting out. These planLs are 
altogether too large to be sent by mall. Price by express or freight, not 
prepaid, dozen 75c., 100 $4.50. 
Rod Dutch -Tho Michigan Experiment Station, after growing all the 
d 1 Heron t varieties of currants, says: ” Red Dutch, although one of the 
oldest. varieties , yet stands first among the red currants so far as quality as 
well as productiveness is concerned .” It is immensely productive, and if 
the bushes receive good cultivation and plenty of manure, the bunches 
are long and well filled out, and the fruit of good size, good color and 
high quality. Each 10c., % dozen 40c., dozen 75c. 
Cherry /(The largest- and most popular currant. Bushes not as vigorous as 
Red Dutch. Needs the best of soil and culture. When it does well it is 
one of the most profitable varieties. Good plants, each 10c., % dozen 45c., 
dozen 75c. 
White Grape-Fruit white; bunches not so long as Red Dutch, the but 
fruit Is of good size, remarkably handsome and of the highest quality'. 
Best variety for the table. It also makes beautiful and delicately 
flavored Jelly. Good plants, each 10c., % dozen 45c., dozen 75c. 
FAY’S PROLIFIC— This is a much bilked of and highly praised variety. 
Fruit about the size of the Cherry Currant, but with larger bunches. 
One-year-old plants, each 15c., % dozen 60c., dozen $1.00. 
Black Naples— The best variety of Black Currants. A vigorous grower; 
fruit very large, sometimes nearly three-fourths inch in diameter. 
There is quite a demand for Black Currants, and their cultivation is 
highly profitable. They are not attacked by the currant worm. Good 
plants, each 10c., LJ dozen, 45c., dozen 75c.
