RED RASPBERRIES 
LATHAM (The Best Producing Raspberry)—This is prob¬ 
ably the best variety of red raspberries at the present time. 
It produces a large berry of very fine flavor. Our plants are 
free from any mosaic disease. When you buy our plants you 
will not have to worry about this troublesome raspberry dis¬ 
ease. With us it does not start to yield quite as early as the 
Cuthbert or Chief varieties, but will probably bear more berries 
and show more profit to you than any other variety. The quali¬ 
ty is fine. 
Prices; 6 for 50c; 12 for $1.00; 25 for $1.50; 50 for $2.50; 
100 for $4.00. Postpaid. 
CHIEF (The Earliest Raspberry)—This variety is earlier 
than other varieties of red raspberries. It is not quite as large 
as Latham or Cuthbert but produces a firm bright red berry. 
Every grower should plant a few of this variety in his garden 
so that he will have berries as early as any. For commercial 
growers this berry will come early and bring the best prices. 
Prices: 6 for 50c; 12 for $1.00; 25 for $1.50; 50 for $2.50 
100 for $4.00. Postpaid. 
CUTHBERT (The Old Standard Red Raspberry)—This va¬ 
riety has been raised longer than any of the other varieties. 
Perhaps it has not produced the tremendous crops of the 
Lathams but it is a sure cropper and gives a good crop on al¬ 
most any type of soil. The plants make a vigorous growth and 
produce bright red berries of a good size. We have raised 
Cuthbert raspberries for a great many years and they have 
never missed a crop. You will not be disappointed with Cuth¬ 
bert Raspberries. 
Prices: 6 for 50c; 12 for $1.00; 25 for $1.50; 50 for $2.50; 
100 for $4.00. Postpaid.

The plants I had from you last year did very well. It may 
interest you to know that we are still picking a few of the 
Pearl. I will be able to figure the yield on the 450 plants in a 
few days now. They do not yield with Howard 17, Catskill, or 
Aberdeen, but they do come late and bring a higher price. 
Yours very truly, 
DONALD C. CHANDLER.
