Thornless Youngberry (One-third actual size) 
Tithonia Giant Fireball 
Dazzling as a ball of fire poised high above other flowers, Fireball is, 
undoubtedly, the last word in brilliance of color in a fall blooming plant. 
Many who have known Tithonia Speciosa have considered it the brightest 
possible flower for fall use. With the introduction, however, of Fireball, this 
older variety is entirely overshadowed. Fireball is a very brilliant shade of 
scarlet orange, the petals in dazzling contrast to the clear yellow center. 
Flowers 4*4 to 5 inches in diameter, on fine long stems. Plants often reach 
a height of 8 or 9 feet, neat in appearance, and unlike the older Tithonia 
Speciosa, do not become ragged looking. Extremely showy in the garden 
and an excellent cut flower, keeping 5 or 6 days when cut. Pkt., 20c. 
Indian Summer Raspberry 
Quality Fruit—Summer and Fall 
Introduced by the New York Experiment Station at 
Geneva. Indian Summer is decidedly superior to any other 
everbearing Red Raspberry now on the market. The berries 
are large, dark red and of very fine quality. The plants 
produce a heavy summer crop that ripens with the standard 
varieties of Red Raspberries. The autumn crop starts in 
early September and continues until severe frost. The plants 
are very hardy, vigorous, medium height and bear very 
heavy crops. An exceptionally fine berry and shows promise 
of being a money-maker for the commercial grower.

Tithonia Giant Fireball 
Thornless Youngberry 
Hardy—Productive—Fine Quality 
The Acme Thornless Youngberry is a cross between the 
Dewberry and Loganberry, and is a welcome addition to the 
berry family. Owing to the absence of thorns, the fruit can 
be harvested conveniently and economically. They are of 
very easy culture. Anyone who has successfully grown 
either Blackberries or Dewberries can grow Youngberries. 
The fruiting habits are identical with the Dewberry. The 
dark, wine-red berries are very much like Dewberries, but 
considerably larger—25 of them will fill a pint berry basket. 
The sweet, delicious flavor and fine texture of the Young¬ 
berry is unexcelled. It not only makes a fine table berry in 
its fresh state, but has proven very popular for pies and for 
canning. The Acme Youngberry outyields any other cane 
fruit we have found, and has proven perfectly hardy in 
Michigan. Youngberries are good shippers and show great 
possibilities as a commercial crop. Covered by Plant Patent 
No. 4. Complete cultural instructions furnished with each 
order. 
PRICES: 35c each; 3 for 70c; 6 for $1.00; 12 for $1.65; 
25 for $2.75; 50 for $4.25; 100 for $7.50; postpaid. By ex¬ 
press, not prepaid, 100 for $6.50; 500 or more at $45.00 per
