“EVERBEARING” 
RED RASPBERRIES 
(Prices on page 94) 
Indian Summer 
(New). Best of the so-called “everbear¬ 
ing” raspberries, first popularized by St. 
Regis. This variety grows sturdy canes above medium 
height, which bear abundant crops ; first in June about the 
time of Chief; then again in September, with the bulkiest 
yield in October, clear up to the first frosts. The medium 
red berries are large, slightly irregular, inclined to crumble; 
Soft and luscious to the taste. Not sufficiently firm for far 
shipping, but very good for local market, and for vastly 
enjoyable home-garden use. (Illustrated on back cover.) 
St. ReglS (R a P ere )* Fruit commences to ripen with the 
• _° earliest and continuing on young canes until 
October, many quarts often being picked after the first snow 
falls. Berries bright crimson, large size, rich, sugary, with 
full raspberry flavor. Flesh firm and meaty, a good shipper. 
Wonderfully prolific. Canes stocky, of strong growth, with 
abundance of dark green leathery foliage. Besides being a 
really fine , variety, it has the very valuable quality of pro¬ 
ducing in autumn, when there are no others. 
STRAWBERRIES 
Strawberries succeed in any soil adapted to farm or garden 
crops. Soil should be prepared to a good depth, well-drained 
and enriched with vegetable manure (muck, rotten turf, wood 
soil, ashes, etc.). For field culture set rows 3 to 3 % feet apart, 
15 to 18 inches in each row ; for garden, 15 inches apart each 
way, pathway every third row. For large fruit, keep in hills, 
pinching runners off as they appear. Ground should be kept 
clean and well cultivated. In winter cover with leaves, straw 
or litter. Do not cover until ground is frozen, nor so as to 
smother plants. Remove cover before growth starts in spring. 
Mulching will keep fruit clean and soil in good condition. 
Dip in water as soon as received, and bury roots in moist, 
shady ground until ready to set out; do not neglect. 
Everbearing Red Raspberry—St. Regis 
EVERBEARING STRAWBERRIES 
“Everbearing Strawberries” yield fruit continuously from 
May or June until frost. Caution: Pick off the blooms until 
July 1st—if you want largest and best fall crop. 
Did you ever use a row of Strawberry plants to border your 
garden walks ? Not only beautiful in its continuously perfect 
verdure, studded with white flowers or crimson fruits, but it 
is so handy to gather your morning breakfast dish—fresh with 
dew—without wetting your slippers.

Dorsett This new eastern introduction has taken the Atlantic berry grow- 
' » ers by storm, and is becoming one of the most popular and 
respected in the middle west. Its fruiting season is early and profitably 
continuous, yielding bumper crops which bring instant market acceptance 
at the very top price. The berry is uniformly large, full, elongated with 
rounded extremity. The color is an attractive pinkish red, unusual flavor, 
mild sub-acid. It does exceptionally well on heavy soil, and surpasses 
other varieties for sweetness during protracted rainy season. 
Fairfax Another new kind which runs with Dorsett; in many ways similar, 
rairiax b u t w njj sufficient differences to warrant growing both. It also 
produces a heavy crop of berries better than average size, deeply conical in 
shape, a more brilliant red than Dorsett and of firmer texture ; season about 
the same. The flavor is sweetly luscious and creates demand for more. 
■■ i j For a number of years Mastodon has had a clear 
masioaon field, safely outranking all predecessors. De¬ 
spite certain keen recent competition by newer introduc¬ 
tions, Mastodon remains a top notch everbearer. It is of 
immense size, an almost incredible cropper, of choice qual¬ 
ity, and the strongest grower ever developed. More pro¬ 
ductive than most June-bearers, its fall pickings are suffi¬ 
cient from but a few plants, and very profitable. 
Qrarlot The newest important introduction in the 
acariei, “Everbearing” group, and by all reports 
creates a greater usefulness and value to that class. It is 
credited with bearing within 60 days after the normal spring 
planting; carrying on during the summer, with an immense 
fall crop ending only with the first frosts. Sparkling, glossy 
red fruits uniformly large, that carry and .keep better than 
others, due to the tough skin and unusual firmness of its 
flesh. The flavor is fine. Three crops, big ones—spring, 
summer, and fall. What more can you ask of a strawberry ? 
(See illustration in color on back cover.) 
y»» * (New). Here is another introduction which is hailed by 
Wdyzaia growers in the great Michigan Strawberry Belt as the best 
“everbearer” of them all. Would you, too, care to try it out and judge 
its merits ? The berries are large, uniform, very dark red, and very 
sweet.
