LATHAM—The Giant Red Raspberry 
Latham 
LATHAM —That great Min¬ 
nesota introduction—holds 
unchallenged first place as 
the leading commercial and 
home variety of Red Rasp - 
berry. It is the leading com - 
mercial berry in the North¬ 
west as well as in the East. 
It is hardy everywhere, 
bushes are sturdy, upright 
and vigorous, particularly 
resistant to diseases of all 
kinds. The fruit is very 
large, dark red, and firm. 
Latham is an excellent ship¬ 
per, heavy yielder, easy 
picker. It has the qualities 
that make it the leading 
Red Raspberry of the day. 
Red Lake Currant 
CURRANTS 
RED LAKE 
This new currant was originated recently 
at the Minnesota State Fruit Breeding Farm, 
and promises to replace all other varieties in 
the cherry currant class. The berry is very 
large and is borne on long stems forming ex¬ 
ceptionally long, well filled bunches. The 
quality of fruit is very good, the ripening 
season is medium and the plant a heavy 
yielder. While this new variety produces large 
berries in long bunches, its most valuable 
quality is the sturdy upright type of bush. 
This character is lacking in many of the older 
varieties. Because of the above qualities, Red 
Lake is the leading currant. 
MINNESOTA NO. 70 
We offer a very limited supply of this new 
currant this year. No. 70 is a very large 
currant and the bush a thrifty grower. Bush 
is upright in growth and a heavy yielder. This 
is a very promising variety and seems to be 
superior to Red Lake in some respects. We 
advise at least a few of this new variety for 
trial.
