This recent new development in bramble fruits bears a prodigious 
crop of berries about two inches long, fat and juicy under the warming 
sun. These are delectable tid-bits for eating out of the hand, and fine 
glossy black units for table dessert or canning and have become exceed¬ 
ingly popular prepared as an unfermented autumn cordial. Should be 
trained on vines (like grapes) in spring; 
untied, laid down and mulched for winter. | By Mail I By Exp. or Frt.

PURPLE RASPBERRIES 
The Purple Raspberries run generally larger than either 
Blacks or Reds, and are very attractive to look at and to eat, 
but are a little too soft when ripe to ship far. They have more 
seeds than the reds, but less than the Blacks. Mostly tart and 
high-flavored. Very popular for jams, preserves, canning and 
for flavoring.

Columbian. Very large, purplish color, rather soft; rich, 
sprightly flavor, unrivaled for canning, etc. Bush vigoi'ous 
and productive; immense cropper. 
p i, (New.) Produces a full, heavy crop the second 
ru comae summer after planting. The first ripening is 
usually in June, continuing about 30 days. Shape of the 
berry is slightly conical, in heavy clusters ; the yield prob¬ 
ably the greatest of any raspberry. Berries large, firm, 
dark purplish red covered with considerable bloom; the 
flavor very fine. This variety is particularly good for pre¬ 
serving, and has no equal for jelly. Because of such vigor¬ 
ous growth and caning, allow more planting space than for 
other purples or reds. 
Snrffuc A new purple raspberry finding much favor in 
uuus several states. The fruit is extra large, of medium 
purple color, firm, sprightly and of excellent quality, ripen¬ 
ing shortly after Latham. Sodus is more resistant to 
drought than is Columbian and seems practically immune to 
mosaic disease. The plants are vigorous, very productive 
and hardy.
