PIXWELL— “Ac Weu Gosseberry 
Most everyone like Gooseberries. We like green Gooseberry sauce 
and green Gooseberry pie. But we do hate to pick the Gooseberry 
because of the terrible thorns. Prof. Yeager of the North Dakota 
Station spent years and tried out thousands of seedling Gooseberries 
looking for a good Goose- 
berry with fewer thorns that 
could be easily picked. Out 
of all his seedlings he picked 
this one and named it Pixwell. 
It is not thornless but it has 
comparatively few thorns and 
these are so constructed as to 
give very little trouble in 
picking. 
One can encircle with the 
hand a limb of Pixwell at its 
base and draw the hand the 
entire length of the limb to 
the tip and hardly feel the 
prick of a single thorn. Try 
this on any other Gooseberry. 
Pixwell is considered one of 
the best Gooseberries in cold 
southern Manitoba. 
Strong 2-yr., No. 1 plants, 
35c each; 3 for 75c; 12 for 
$2.50.

RED LAKE CURRANT 
The Fine New Currant From the Minnesota Station 
The Minnesota Station has been working with the Currant for thirty 
or more years, trying to produce a variety that was better than anything 
we so far had. : 
In this work they have succeeded beyond expectations. They have 
produced several new Currants but up to this time only the Red Lake 
has been introduced. 
We think the Red Lake is the greatest of all Currants. The colored 
illustration on page 46 shows a branch of the Red Lake. The picture 
was taken this last summer and is not exaggerated. It shows the actual 
size and color of fruit, length of stem, and immense production just as 
it actually is. 
It is a tremendous bearer of great big Currants that are wonderfully 
sweet when ripe and never as sour as other red varieties. 
Every time we passed the Red Lakes after they ripened, we stopped 
and ate a handful or two. One wouldn’t do this with the ordinary 
Currant. 
In the North, where one happens to live near a good market and 
where Currants are not grown in quantity, fine returns could be derived 
from growing this variety commercially.

The New RHUBARB 
Strong roots, 40c each; 6 for $2.00, postpaid. 
MacDONALD. A new and select strain of Rhubarb or Pieplant de- 
veloped and sent out from the Experimental Station of the Dominion 
of Canada. MacDonald is unusually high in sugar content for a 
Rhubarb, which causes a great saving in sugar in its cooking. It is 
also an unusually fine flavored Rhubarb, which makes it very desir- 
able. Usable over a long period of time. Makes a fine pink sauce 
of finest flavor. 
RUBY. Another fine Rhubarb from the Canadian Station. Ruby, like 
MacDonald, is very high in sugar content, and is of exceptionally 
fine flavor but differs from that variety in color. MacDonald is a 
green stemmed sort with a good deal of red veining running through 
it while Ruby is a deep rich ruby-red, the reddest of all Rhubarb. 
It makes a deep rich red sauce which is very beautiful and tasty.

RASPBERRIES 
Jor the Back Yard 
Every family having as much as a single city lot should plant red 
Raspberries. There is no other fruit that will give as great returns. Even 
so few as a dozen plants, well cared for, will provide a small family with 
several pints of luscious Raspberries every day during the fruiting sea- 
son; 25 plants will supply a large family; while 100 plants will not only 
give a family all they want for immediate use but also lots of fruit to 
put up for the winter. 
LATHAM 
When everything is considered, Latham must be called the best of 
all red Raspberries. It is as hardy as any, it does well all over the 
country, it is the most productive of all, the berries are large, of fine 
appearance, and fine flavor. 
More money can be made growing red Raspberries for market than 
from any other farm crop. The Latham is the greatest red Raspberry 
ever introduced. In competition with all other high producing varieties 
at the Connecticut Experimental Farm under official test the crop yield 
per acre was—Latham, 5,430 quarts; Herbert, 3,648 quarts; Cuthbert, 
3,600 quarts; which conclusively shows the outstanding superiority of 
Latham as a producer and a money maker. In our own fields we have 
netted over $1,000 per acre from Latham. 
Our plants are inspected 3 times every growing season by official 
state inspectors and our stock is certified mosaic free. 
Latham was awarded the Wilder Medal by the American Pomological 
Society in 1927. This medal is considered the highest award of Amer- 
ican Horticulture. Latham is the only Raspberry that ever received it.

SODUS. The great new purple-cap Raspberry. Those who have never 
grown purple-cap Raspberries have a real pleasant surprise coming 
when they do. We had them growing in our nursery last year for 
the first time and believe they were the most productive, the largest 
fruit, and the richest flavored Raspberries we ever grew. Everyone 
had nothing but praise for them. :

berry is generally considered the best of the everbearing sorts. Berries

the home garden. Price same as Sodus.

GRAPES 
GOLDEN MUSCAT. The Best Grape That Can be Grown in Eastern 
United States. Another wonderful Grape sent out by the New York 
Station. Of it they say: “Golden Muscat possesses the rich golden 
color of Diamond and the finest Muscat aroma of the European 
Muscat. For home use and the roadside market it is one of the best. 
The vine is vigorous, productive; the clusters are very large, tapering, 
single-shouldered, and compact; the berries are large, oval, juicy, 
tender, sweet, vinous, aromatic; season after Concord. This is the 
handsomest and best flavored Grape grown in Eastern America.”
