BLACKBERRIES 
ELDORADO. Has stood at the head of the 
list for many years, and its position still 
is not in danger. It is later than Early 
Harvest, is not so subject to disease, and 
makes heavy, vigorous canes that hold 
the leaves and fruit well. Given a fa¬ 
vorable season with moisture, or grown 
under mulch, it produces very large, long 
fruits that are a pride and joy to the 
grower. Plant with confidence. 
EARLY HARVEST. Extra earliness and pro¬ 
ductiveness make this the leading com¬ 
mercial and home variety. Is through 
with its crop when the wild ones begin to 
ripen. Hangs well onto the canes and is 
a money-maker.

CURRANTS 
RED DUTCH. By far the most productive of 
the many kinds we tested. Color a bril¬ 
liant red; large berries borne in long 
clusters along the stems; quality excel¬ 
lent. The white varieties have proved 
worthless in this climate. 
GOOSEBERRIES 
DOWNING. Fruit almost round, large, and 
juicy; best quality; whitish green color. 
Does especially well in the North. 
HOUGHTON. Round, medium size; dark 
red when ripe; juicy, sweet. Thin, smooth 
skin. The bush is hardy, very productive, 
free from mildew, and the best for gen¬ 
eral purposes in this section.

RASPBERRIES 
We have tested many kinds of Rasp¬ 
berries and after due consideration are 
listing only three. These have proven best 
under our Kentucky conditions and we 
recommend them with confidence. Rasp¬ 
berries should be planted in every home 
garden as they require small space and pro¬ 
duce an abundance of our finest table 
fruit. Contrary to general belief, Rasp¬ 
berries and Blackberries want good rich soil. 
CUMBERLAND. Black. Decidedly the best 
of its color to date. Large, prolific, sweet 
and a good grower. 
LATHAM. Red. Fruit large, of finest qual¬ 
ity and a good clear pink. Plants robust 
and hardy. While Chief is a few days 
earlier, Latham will produce 50 per cent 
more fruit. The best red. 
ST. REGIS. Red Everbearing. While we do 
not "bank" on its everbearing qualities, 
it is the best of this type. It ripens early 
in the season just before Latham and 
with good growing conditions will give 
quite a quantity of fruit during the late 
summer and early fall. 
RHUBARB 
EXCELSIOR. Very early, with long stem. 
Plant vigorous and dependable. 
Planted 4 by 3 feet, with eye 4 
inches below the surface, on clean 
soil, success is assured. We offer only 
divided crowns and not seedling 
plants as these are worthless.

DEWBERRIES 
We consider Lucretia the best Dewberry, 
making a very vigorous growth and fruiting 
early. The berries are large, jet black, and 
of fine flavor. May be allowed to develop 
on the ground or trained, in either case 
producing large crops.

STRAWBERRIES 
As Strawberry plants heave out of the 
ground when fall planted, we advise and 
sell only in the spring. We issue a special 
booklet then with full cultural instruc¬ 
tions. We will book your order now and 
bill and ship you at the proper planting 
time. We repeat, fall planting is not sat¬ 
isfactory.

ASPARAGUS 
WASHINGTON. This is the best known 
variety. It is a strong grower, produc¬ 
ing stocks of large size, fine quality, 
and tender. The fact that it is rust- 
resistant makes it the ideal Asparagus 
for all. Our plants, produced on heavy 
soil, are superior to the little seedlings 
grown in sand. Every plant is graded 
and all are large, fleshy roots that, with 
proper care, will be ready to cut the 
second year. We are large growers of 
roots and can make attractive prices 
to commercial growers. These 
plants, after 2 years' acclima¬ 
tion in our soil, will grow off 
much better than imported 
plants.
