HITTEN’S 
ORTH-WHILE 

ALFRED 
The Blackberry 
without a Core 
Alfred ripens early, about a week in 
advance of Eldorado. In productiveness 
it is in a class by itself. Some years it 
has been known to produce a second 
crop in September. 
Alfred is extremely hardy. Can be 
grown anywhere in the U. S. without 
winter protection, having withstood tem- 
peratures as low as 35 degrees below 
zero without injury to a single tip or 
branch. 
Alfred bears the second season. It is 
such a healthy, vigorous grower that it 
produces a good fruit crop the year 
after planting, and it is not unusual to 
pick from ten to as many as forty ber- 
ries from a single bush the same year 
planted. 
Alfred berries are of immense size. 
Berries are nearly twice as large as 
ordinary Blackberries, some measuring 
3 inches around and 2 inches in length. 
Of firm texture, making it an excellent 
market berry. Flavor sweet and delicious. 
Ideal for a table berry, as it is practically 
coreless. 
ELDORADO 
The Standard 
Commercial Blackberry 



Alfred 
Probably a greater acreage of Eldorado exists throughout Michigan and the 
Middle West than of all other Blackberries combined. Surely this speaks well 
for Eldorado. It is not a new variety, but it has stood the test of time, and is still 
today as popular a favorite with commercial growers as it was a quarter- — 
century ago. g 
Eldorado bears young, providing nearly a full crop of fruit the year ae 
planting. Very hardy; seldom winter-kills. Vigorous grower, large berries, fine - 
flavor, and excellent quality. Very productive; fruits over a long season and — 
insures a big profit to the grower.

Blackberries. A real money-maker. Brings a

but produced on a trailing-vine instead of an

tant. Berries are extra large, lustrous black,
