to conceive of anything. the equal of this 
berry. Cross between dewberry and black-

shipper. Must have Haupt planted with it 
for pollination. These two kinds in alter- 
nate rows make a good combination. Per

BOYSENBERRY 
This is a strong growing plant, consid- 
ered to be a cross between blackberry, 
raspberry, and loganberry. Fruit extra 
large, of excellent flavor, more like rasp- 
berry. The Boysenberry has not been proven 
entirely in the Southwest, but shows great 
promise. Special low prices: 6 for 50c;

riety of standard kinds in South.

Everbearing Strawberries 
It is not meant that these bear all spring 
and summer, but they have a long bearing 
period in the spring, and often make a 
second crop later. Per dozen, 30c; per 100, 
$1.50; per 1000, $10.00. 
TEXAS. This is a splendid variety, espe- 
cially in Central and South Texas. We re- 
commend it entirely. 
Planting and Care of Strawberries 
Set plants as you would tomato plants, 1 fot by 
2% feet. Give quart of water to each plant. Straw 
(free of seed) or leaves should be spread as mulch 
over the ground to cover partially or entirely plants 
through cold _ spells. During warm spells, rake 
mulch away from plants. During Summer, partial 
shade for plants is necessary in hot climates. This 
can be given by means of brush or lattice placed 
several feet above ground. 
Plants must have moisture. 
If planted November to December 15, they will 
fruit in early Spring.
