Raspberries 
Cultural Direction*—The same as for Blackberries 
and Dewberries. These thrive best in a deep, moist, 
well drained soil: the lighter loams are best for the 
red, and the heavy loams for the blackcaps. To make 
a success of Raspberries, the land should be able to 
withstand drought well. Cottonseed meal, pure 
ground bone, or fertilizers containing a good pro¬ 
portion of potash are best and should be liberally 
applied during the winter and early spring. To get 
the best results and keep the plants in vigorous con¬ 
dition, they must be mulched heavily with straw.

Olives 
Picholine Olives were quite extensively cultivated 
on the coast of Georgia and South Carolina, pre¬ 
vious to the Civil War, and an excellent quality of 
oil was produced. Some-of these plantings are still 
producing fruit which is use quite successfully for 
pickling. There is no reason why this industry 
should not be revived. 
A peculiarity of the Olive is that it flourishes and 
bears abundant crops on rock and barren soils, 
where no other fruit trees are successful.

Pomegranates 
The Pomegranate is hardy in the gulf states and 
central sections of Georgia and the Carolinas. The 
plants will frequently attain a height of upward of 
20 feet. It is of good form and foliage: bright scar¬ 
let flowers make it a most ornamental plant. It 
bears early and profusely. The demand for the 
fruit is increasing in eastern markets, and the 
Pomegranate is being grown in some sections on an 
extensive scale. The fruit carries well to distant 
markets;
