A L F R ED 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 temperatures 
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 itis not unusual to pick from ten to as many as forty berries

ELDORADO 
The Standard 
Commercial Blackberry 
Probably a greater acreage of Eldorado 
exists throughout Michigan and the Middle 
West than of all other Blackberries com- 
bined. 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. 
Eldorado bears young, providing nearly 
a full crop of fruit the year after planting. 
Very hardy; seldom winter-kills. Vigorous 
grower, large berries, fine flavor, and ex- 
cellent quality. Very productive; fruits over 
a long season and insures a big profit to 
the grower. 
yy Eldorado 
“=! Blackberry 
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. 
Dewberries 
LUCRETIA 
The first to ripen. Ten days earlier 
than Blackberries. A real money- 
maker. Brings a big price on any 
market and makes real profit for the 
grower. Of the blackberry type, but 
produced on a trailing vine instead 
of an upright bush. Very hardy and 
disease-resistant. Berries are extra 
large, lustrous black, sweet and 
juicy. UNEXCELLED FOR CANNING.
