St. Regis Red Raspberry 
Everbearing 
Bears in 90 days from planting. The most popular ever- 
bearing red raspberry ever introduced because it actually 
does bear a big crop of luscious fruit in June and begins 
again in September and bears continually until killed by 
: hard freezing. Berries are rich crimson-red, firm, medium 
in size, and of good quality. Plant St. Regis and keep 
your table supplied with fresh red raspberries during 
summer and fall.

Boysenberry 
Boysenberry, as a new variety, has had more publicity than 
any other new kind. Berry is of immense size, of the 
Blackberry type, but grows like a Dewberry. These dark 
berries often measure 2% inches in length and are so 
big that the average grower cannot visualize them. 
When you realize that it takes 150 average Blackberries 
to fill a pint box, and about 60 to 80 Boysenberries to 
fill the same container, you can realize how big they are.

sweet, with the tartness of the blackberry. Excellent for 
table use, canning, jellies, pies, and for wine. The plant 
is a rank grower. Withstands cold and heat. Adapted to 
a wide range of soils. A great producer.

Strawberry Culture 
SOIL REQUIREMENTS •- Sandy loam, well drained, gently sloping 
is preferred. Clover or Alfalfa sod. or any soil with plenty of humus 
will do. If Timothy sod is used, it should be fall plowed to control 
white grubs. 
PREPARATION OF SOIL — Fall plowing is preferred. If early spring 
plowing is done the soil should be worked fine. Ordinary barnyard 
manure is the best fertilizer for strawberries. 
PLANTING — Only 1-year plants should be used. Set them just as 
ear'y In the spring as possible. If not ready to set when they arrive, 
heel them in, opening bunches, placing plants in a trench and packing 
soil firmly around roots to prevent drying out. All surplus leaves 
should be removed and roots should be slightly trimmed off. Cultiva¬ 
tion should begin as soon as possible after planting and occasional 
hoeing close to plants should be done. A11 blossoms should be removed 
from plants as soon as they begin to form. Early in winter after 
the ground freezes a layer of straw, marsh hay or any other leafy 
material should be spread over the plants at the rate of about 2 tons 
per acre. If commercial fertilizer is used, we recommend acid phos¬ 
phate, using about 200 pounds to the acre, or a complete fertilizer 
such as 4-16-4. Set plants in rows 3% to 4 feet apart in row, requiring 
about 8000 plants per acre.
