BAKER NURSERIES 
THE YOUNGBERRY 
The vines are vigorous and sometimes grow twenty feet 
in one season. Although the vines are thorny, the fruit 
stems hang out from the vines making them easy to pick. 
We set 1,000 plants to the acre, making the rows about 
9 feet apart and setting them about five feet apart in the 
row. Should be set as early in the spring as possible al¬ 
though some set in the fall. As vines start to run, keep 
them trained along the rows so they will not be in the 
way of the plow. In winter place posts along the rows 
every ten feet and string two wires on them, the first 
wire being about eighteen inches from the ground. In 
the early spring tie your vines up to the wires, stretching 
the vines out full length. One set of posts and wire will 
last the lifetime of the plants or ten to fifteen years. 
After fruiting, cut out all old wood and train and cultivate 
the vines as you did at the first. Plow and hoe when 
needed. 
Whatever you do plant some Youngberries, they have 
the flavor of the Red Raspberry and are a cross between 
the Austin Dewberry and the Loganberry. They make 
the best jelly, marmalade and jam ever. In Southern 
Alabama they have cleared from $550.00 to $650.00 per 
acre from Youngberries and in California as much as 
$1,000 per acre. 
We have tried the Youngberries thoroughly over the past 
10 years here in our own fields, and have found them to 
pay us more net money per acre, for the cost put into 
them, than any berries we are raising now, once planted 
you have them for years, and through the very dry 
weather-summer of 1934, and the still harder one of 1936 
our Youngberries came through 85 to 90 per cent good, 
there is no other berry or vine or vines that have done this, 
and we are doubling our planting. Try one acre or more 
now, while you can get the real original strain.
