FILBERT =< 
A hardy native shrub that bears an 
abundance of nuts of the finest flavor. The

shrub about three feet high that fits in 
nicely in a shrub planting and at the same 
time bears lots of nuts.

THE BROOKS CHERRY 
This new selected sand Cherry comes to us from the Canadian Pacific Agricultural 
Station of Brooks, Alberta, Canada. We heard much of this wonderful Cherry and this 
past year we grew quite a stock of the plants, although we had never seen the fruit. 
Fortunately it was among a planting at Fargo and while I was there, summer before last, 
I saw the bushes in full fruit. To say I was surprised is putting it mildly. The bushes 
were loaded, the fruit a deep black in color, and the largest of anything I had ever seen 
in the Improved Bush Cherry. We measured some of the fruit and it was an inch in 
diameter and about an inch and a quarter long. The fruit is sweet and juicy and fine 
to eat. The Brooks Cherry is an improved Sand Cherry selection. The largest we have 
ever seen. Should be planted with Hansen Bush Cherries for fertilization.

HIGHBUSH CRANBERRY 
A large growing shrub which very much resembles the bush of the Snowball. Leaves 
redden up in the fall and are very beautiful. The white flowers are not of great beauty 
but they are followed by a profusion of bright red berries, in large clusters, which hang on 
way into the winter and make a wonderful lawn ornament. These berries are fine for 
culinary purposes and make a jelly that looks and tastes exactly like that of the marsh 
[44] 
Cranberry, such as one buys at the grocery. 
Nice to plant as individual shrubs, either in clus- 
ters or in long rows as a background. Grows to a 
height of eight to twelve feet. Old bushes will often 
bear a bushel of fruit in a single year. If planted 
on the farm, where there is plenty of room, noth- 
ing else is nicer than a full row of High Bush Cran- 
berry planted along the north side of the garden, 
where it will produce loads of fruit and at the same 
time act as a dense low windbreak for the garden. 
So planted, bushes should be set six feet apart.

JUNEBERRY 
The Juneberry resembles in every way the blueberry. Looks 
like the blueberry, tastes like it, and makes pies and sauce like 
it. But you can cultivate and grow the Juneberry right in the 
garden, with just the ordinary cultivation as given other shrubs, 
while you cannot grow the Blueberry without going to con- 
siderable trouble. The Juneberry is also a beautiful shrub to 
have for early blooming in big clumps in the border where it 
will bloom and bear fruit. The Juneberry is a very easy shrub 
to grow, as it adapts itself to almost every soil and all sorts of 
moisture conditions. It is extremely hardy and is to be found 
growing wild in its different species from northern Michigan to 
Montana. Plant a dozen plants 4 feet apart; in a few years 
they will have spread together and bear quantities of delicious 
fruit each year for many years.
