Red Raspberries 
Red Raspberries will do equally well on 
light or heavy soil; however it should be 
well drained. For field culture, Red Rasp- 
berries should be planted about 3 feet 
apart in the row, with the rows 7 feet 
apart, requiring about 2000 plants per 
acre. In the spring, all canes should be 
cut back to about 3 feet and branches 
trimmed to about 6 inches. Six or seven 
good strong canes are sufficient to a 
bush, and the berries will be higher in 
~ LATHAM 
Hardy, Productive, Dependable 
Although a comparatively new variety, 
it is entirely past the experimental stage, 
and we unhesitatingly recommend it as 
one of the best Raspberries ever grown. 
It was originated in Minnesota, and has 
never been known to winter-kill even 
though exposed to 45 degrees below Zero. 
The sensational yield of this variety have 
attracted the attention of growers every - 
where, and everyone who has given it a 
trial is praising the many unusual fea- 
tures found in Latham. It is a tall vigor- 
Ous grower; the canes are extra heavy, 
well able to support the tremendous load Latham 
of fruit. The foliage is a healthy. dar 
green, tough and leathery, highly resist- 
ant to insects. Ripens about the same time as Cuthbert and covers a longer fruiting season than 
any other Raspberry, Color a dark rich red; quality of the best, with full Raspberry flavor. 
CHIEF 
For Home or Market 
A seedling of Latham and has 
turned out to be by far the finest 
early Red for general planting. The 
fruit is not quite as large as Lath- 
am but is brighter red, very firm 
and a tremendously heavy yielder, 
producing 20 per cent more than 
Latham in the Minnesota test plots. 
The Chief is practically immune 
from mosaic and mildew and is 
even hardier and of better flavor than Latham. Rasp- 
berry growers have looked for a good early Red 
Raspberry. They have tried King, Miller, Early June, 
etc., and although fairly good in many respects they 
have not been very profitable. It now looks as though 
the new Chief is going to meet most of the require- 
ments and become the greatest money-maker of them 
all — ripening ten days before Latham, firmer, same good color, 
fine flavor and a heavy yielder,
