Red Lake (Actual Size) 
Note the long stems and long bunches 

PROFESSOR ALDERMAN, Chief of Horticulture, University 
of Minnesota, writes of the Red Lake Currant: “Some of its out- 
standing features which are of interest to commercial growers are the 
large, long-stemmed clusters which are easy to pick and increase the 
speed of picking. The individual berries are large in size, resembling 
those of Perfection, but the clusters are larger and better than Per- 
fection.” Prices on page 33-H. 

Authorities Say of Red Lake: 
PROFESSOR GEO. L. SLATE, of New York Horticultural 
Station, writes of Red Lake: “The characteristics which make this 
variety worthy of notice are the long, well-filled clusters of large 
berries that are fully equal to those of Perfection and the bushes 
that are much superior to the bushes of that variety. The berries 
are a light glossy red that is attractive, the skin is tough, the flavor 
pleasantly acid and the quality excellent. The long stems facilitate 
harvesting. At Geneva the bushes are vigorous, upright, and 
yield heavy crops.” . 
FRED ULRICH, Rochester: “It cost only half as much to pick.” 
ELMER HARALSON, Excelsior: “Sales records show Red 
Lake brought 25c to $1.25 more per crate than other varieties.” 
F. W. MACKY, New York: “I have set 30 acres of Red Lake.” 
PROF. CLARK, New Jersey: “Red Lake has continued to 
yield fruit of large size borne on well filled clusters. It has been 
superior in this respect to Fay, Wilder, Perfection, and London 
Market.” 
MORDEN, CANADA, EXPERIMENT STATION: “Most 
sought after Currant in Manitoba.” 
CURRANTS—A GOOD TONIC 
The December, 1938, NEWS LETTER from Morden, Mani- 
toba, writes: “Dieticians are confirming the convictions of our 
grandmothers that red Currants impart a toning up of the whole 
physical system.” 
PLANT RED LAKE THIS YEAR 

CASCADE CURRANT *:" xxx 
NEW! Just Named This Year! 
Another very outstanding Currant named and introduced this year. 
Cascade is a splendid companion for Red Lake. It’s just as hardy, 
just as productive, a little larger berry, not quite as long a bunch, 
a little more upright and ripens a week earlier. 
Professor Alderman says of Cascade, “A very large fruited red 
Currant with large clusters, very productive; ripens a week earlier 
than Red Lake.” 
Stock limited. Order early. Prices on page 33-H. 
PIXWELL GOOSEBERRY 
This is the new Gooseberry originated at the North Dakota Experi- 
ment Station. As the name implies, it “picks well.” The berries hang 
on slender stems about two inches below the branches. This feature 
together with the fewness and relative softness of its thorns makes 
picking the fruit a quick and easy operation. Pixwell is absolutely 
hardy and a good vigorous grower, producing large bushes that carry 
heavy loads of fruit. The berries are large, oval, an attractive light 
green color when immature, ripening to pink. The Morden, Mani- 
toba, News Letter of January 7, 1938, says: ‘Pixwell bore heavily 
and continues the leading Gooseberry for general Manitoba con- 
ditions. It is exceedingly vigorous in bush and always bears heavy 
crops.” Plant some of these dependable bushes this year. Foliage 
colors up to be a most attractive ornamental bush. Prices, page 33-I. 
And old favorite in the fruit 
CARRIE GOOSEBERRY garden, heavy cropper and dis- 
ease-resistant. It has few thorns and is often called the thornless 
Gooseberry. Price on page 33-I.
