This field of Cuthhert Raspberries, planted in 1936 on rented land, produced enougfh 
in 1937 to buy the land and left enough over to pay for the water, 
posts, and wire used. All this from the first crop.

BLACK RASPBERRIES 
A Short Harvest and a Long Price 
For many years it has been thought 
that Black Raspberries could not be 
successfully grown in Southern Cali¬ 
fornia. Now, this is an error, because 
we have been growing them for 15 years. 
It is true that you have to select your 
varieties carefully to get those adapted 
to our climatic conditions, and it is also 
true they do not produce as heavily here 
as other varieties of berries, but since 
they sell readily for about twice as 
much money, they are profitable to grow. 
They do best on rich, heavy land, with 
an abundance of water and fertilizer, 
and they do better in our colder sec¬ 
tions rather than the warmer sections 
of Southern California. If you like 
Black Caps try a row of Munger or 
Black Logan, or both. You will enjoy 
them. If you are raising berries for 
market, and have the conditions men¬ 
tioned above, plant some Black Caps. 
They are always in demand here at high 
prices. 
Black Logan — This is another good 
blackcap and one well adapted to Cali¬ 
fornia conditions. The plants of this 
variety which we got from the east in 
1937 have done wonderfully and last 
summer produced the largest crop of 
blackcaps we have ever seen grown in 
California. The fruit is not quite as large 
as that of the Munger but the quality is 
excellent and the vines are such thrifty, 
vigorous growers that we recommend it, 
especially if you have had trouble with 
other blackcaps. 
Prices Prepaid—Each 15c. 10 for $1.35. 
Prices Prepaid—Each 15c, 10 for $1.35, 
25 for $2.50, 50 for $4.00, 100 for $5.50, 
1000 for $45.00. 
Write for quantity price or prices 
f.o.b. here. Raspberries are usually not 
very successful in the very southern 
states. 
Munger Blackcaps Measuring Nearly An Inch 
Munger- We have grown this variety 
several years now, and have found it 
quite well adapted to Southern Cali¬ 
fornia conditions, and without a doubt 
the largest and finest flavored Black 
Raspberry we have ever seen. The fruit 
is never dry and seedy, as is the case 
with some varieties here. Growers from 
the East and Northwest who have seen 
our Munger Black Caps on display tell 
us they are just as fine as any they are 
able to grow in those sections where 
Black Caps grow wild. Try this Black 
Cap, and you will like it. 
Prices Prepaid—Each 15c, 10 for $1.35, 
25 for $2.50, 50 for $4.00, 100 for $5.50, 
1000 for $45.00. 
RED RASPBERRIES 
From Spring Until Fall 
St. Regis —This berry is also known 
in some parts of the country as RANA- 
REE. The fruit is very good looking and 
is rather dry, which makes it probably 
the best shipper of all raspberries. It is 
very everbearing in habit and when con¬ 
ditions are favorable bears a consider¬ 
able crop in the fall. For home use the 
quality is not as good as the other 
varieties listed in this catalog. 
Prices—^Prepaid—Each 10c, 10 for 80c, 
25 for $1.50, 50 for $2.50, 100 for $3.50, 
1000 for $25.00.
