2. It is wonderfully prolific; the first or main crop being far greater than that of any other red variety known, 
(equalling the most prolific blackcap or purple cane sort). 
3. It gives a crop of fruit all summer and autumn, fruiting on the old canes in generous quantities until late in 
August. By this date berries begin to ripen upon the young, i. e., current year’s canes, which continue to produce 
berries in increasing numbers until late autumn; in fact, until severe frosts occur. 
4. The berries are of a bright crimson, of large size and of surpassing quality—rich, sugary with full raspberry 
flavor. They are of exceedingly meaty, firm texture and keep in good condition longer, after being gathered, than 
any other red raspberry. As a shipper it is unexcelled. 
5. The canes are of stocky, strong growth with a great abundance of dark green leathery leaves, that never scald 
nor sunburn. 
6. It succeeds upon all soils, whether light and sandy or cold heavy clay and the canes are 
always and everywhere—so far as tested. 
When introducing the Cuthbert Raspberry in 1878 and the Golden Queen in 1885, I said they were good varieties 
Was I not right? St. Regis, I am fully convinced is a much finer raspberry than were these in their palmy days- in 
a few words, the most meritorious and valuable raspberry, by far, to date. Any one who plants this variety will waste 
space and time to plant any other red raspberry; for it is unsurpassed in excellence of fruit and covers the whole sea¬ 
son from earliest until latest. It is not a joke but the exact truth to say, “it is the whole thing.”

BEARS THE FIRST SEASON. 
Unlike any other raspberry, the S't. Regis yields a crop of fruit the season it is planted. Plants of it planted in 
ear y piil gave ripe berries on June 20th of the same year. For four weeks thereafter the yield was heavy and the 
canes continued to produce ripe fruit freely without intermission, until the middle of October. The berries were 
arge and beautiful, firm and full flavored to the very last. It is veritably the raspberry for the million and the mil 
honaire. “There’s millions in it.” 
Strong plants, dozen for $1.25; 50 for $4.50; 100 for $8.00; 1000, $75.00. 
Transplanted plants, dozen $1.50; 50 for $5.50; 100 for $10.00. (Too large for mailing.) 
WHAT OTHERS SAY OF THE ST. REGIS BERRY 
Extract from Report of Special Fruit Committee f N. J. 
State Horticultural Society. 
“The St. Regis Everbearing Raspberry is truly a 
wonder and marks a great advance in red raspberries. 
The berries are of good, though not extra large size, 
are bright in color, very firm and of quality that equals 
the old Cuthbert. Its distinguishing characteristics are 
its remarkable vigor of plant and its everbearing property. 
It is the fiist red raspberry to ripen, giving ripe berries 
the past season on June 20th and continued to yield, with¬ 
out intermission, until late October; and its summer and 
autumn crops do not consist of a few scattering berries, 
but good to heavy pickings all the time. One party who 
had a small patch say half an acre—picked and shipped 
from it two to three pickings each week for four months, 
and his profits were enormous. The berries in late sum¬ 
mer and autumn do not differ perceptibly in size, color 
or quality from those that ripen in June. 
“The last fruit that we picked of the St. Regis was on 
November 7th, at which time the plants were in full 
foliage; although previous to this the mercury had regis¬ 
tered 28 degrees.”

The St. Regis Raspberries that I got from you last 
spring have borne wonderfully well.

Your circular says S't. Regis Raspberry will fruit in 
four months from planting. In your next circular you 
can shear off one month or better. * * * J received 
the plants on February 22d. To-day, May 14th, I picked 
my first mess. They are fine flavored berries. I ought 
to say the first berries were ripe six days ago.

The 25 St. Regis raspberries that I got of you this 
spring are all growing and doing well. At this date, 
June 19th, twenty-two of the twenty-five are loaded down 
with berries—a few ready to ripen. They are all 
you claim for them. When I read in the advertisement 
that they would bear the first year, I laughed at it, but 
the laugh comes your way now. Never before saw any- 
thing like them. (Rev.) A. H. Drake.

It may be of interest to you to know that the 200 Rasp¬ 
berries St. Regis, which you sold us in April, are giving 
great satisfaction. Knight & Struck.

We are in receipt of a letter, an extract from which 
may give you pleasure. It says “On the strength of your 
recommending the St. Regis Raspberry, I was induced 
to send for some plants. I take pleasure in reporting to 
you that its qualities were not over done. You can judge 
for yourself. I got the plants on February 22d and to¬ 
day, May 14th, I picked my first mess; less than three 
months from time of planting—and yet this has been an 
unusually cool and windy spring.”

Your St. Regis Raspberry is certainly correct.

spring came up to your recommendation.

I had some of the St. Regis Raspberries last spring, 
not believing they would produce- berries the first season.' 
The month of May was very dry but a few of the plants 
survived and are now full of ripe fruit. It is all that 
you recommended it to be, and I intend to get more in 
my next order. _ T . E. Conant.

It may be of interest to you to know my experience 
with the St. Regis canes I had from you in April. I set 
them in the best of soil and all but two or three are 
yielding fruit. Of course-, it is something of a novelty to 
have such a result the first year and a good number of 
my friends propose to plant them also.

ever saw ’ Geo. W. Benckenstein.
