RASPBERRIES 
Planting Instructions for Blackberries and Rasp¬ 
berries. Plant in rows 6 feet apart and 3 feet apart 
in rows. Any land suitable for wheat or corn grow¬ 
ing- will be good for raspberries and blackberries; 
occasional cultivating will highly increase the 
crop. Cut back the canes at planting time to 
within 6 inches from the ground, then draw about 
2 inches of soil around the canes. Level the ground 
as soon as the new sprouts come through. Allow 
the canes to grow up to 4 feet high, then cut them 
off at that height. 
Raspberries do well in most any soil. It is best 
to plant them where they are protected from the 
hot summer winds as they are ripening in July. 
Raspberries are a very profitable crop.

CHERRY 
There is no fruit tree more profitable than the 
cherry, especially the sour varieties, which are 
very desirable for pies and canning. They bear 
fruit very soon after planting and really bring 
good returns on your investment. Cherries are 
easily raised and should be planted in large enough 
quantities to insure plenty of this desirable fruit 
for the family. 
Planting Instructions. Cherries do best on a 
sloping piece of ground where water during con¬ 
tinual rains will drain off. A low, wet ground is 
not a good place for cherry trees. Dig large holes 
for the roots. 
English Morello. Late. Tart but excellent for 
canning. 
Honey Dew. Yellowish, with blush. Excellent 
quality. Light bearer. 
Montmorency. Mid-season. Very good for all pur¬ 
poses. 
PLUM 
Planting Instructions. Plant the trees deep 
enough that the bud just above the root is covered 
2 inches. Plant 12 to 15 feet apart. 
Compass. August, Cherry-Plum. Small fruit, dark 
red when ripe. Good for jelly. 
Hanska. August. Light red, apricot flavor. Very 
good quality. 
Snpa. July. Medium size. Fruit purple with red 
flesh. Juicy and very good. 
YVaneta. August. Large, red and very productive.

Omaha. August. Large, red and sweet. Produc¬ 
tive and valuable. 
Cumberland. Black. One of the most reliable vari¬ 
eties and is very prolific. Fruit good size and 
juicy. We believe this to be the best. Plant 
2-year transplants for quick and best results. 
St. Regis. Known as the Everbearing Red Rasp¬ 
berry. Fruit is a pinkish-red. Frequently bears 
the same year as planted. Fruits on new growth 
and bears up until snow flies. 
Latham. A large, red Minnesota variety. Consid¬ 
ered one of the best. Very hardy. 
Chief. Another new variety, about 10 days earlier 
than Latham. Fruits very heavy. A favorite 
with fruit growers. 
BOYSENBERRY 
It has all of the flavors and good points of the 
Loganberries, Blackberries and Raspberries. The 
fruit averages one inch in width up to more than 
1V 2 inches in length. The excellent flavor and firm 
flesh makes it a favorite with those who have tried 
it. It should be mulched heavily over winter ih 
the North; the fruit will repay you many times 
over for this trouble, however. 
BLACKBERRIES 
Eldorado. Our most popular variety. The spark¬ 
ling jet-black berries are very large, sweet and 
delicious, and practically coreless. The plant
