CUMBERLAND 
CHIEF.—The New Red Raspberry. Here is a wonderful 
Red Raspberry that is forging ahead as fast as did its 
illustrious ancestors, Latham, and it has just as important 
a place to fill for it is ten days earlier than Latham, rip- 
ening at a time when Red Raspberries bring the most on 
all markets. Chief was originated at Minnesota State 
Fruit Breeding Farm and is a selection from 4,000 seed- 
lings of Latham. It is immensely productive, even sur- 
passing Latham in that respect; the berries are of good 
size and excellent quality and the bushes are absolutely 
hardy and resistant to disease. We consider the Chief 
the most outstanding Red Raspberry that has been pro- 
duced in years.

THE YOUNGBERRY 
The vines are vigorous and sometimes grow twenty feet 
in one season. Although the vines are thorny, the fruit 
stems hang out from the vines making them easy to pick. 
We set 1,000 plants to the acre, making the rows about 
9 feet apart and setting them about five feet apart in the 
row. Should be set as early in the spring as possible al- 
though some set in the fall. As vines start to run, keep 
them trained along the rows so they will not be in the 
way of the plow. In winter place posts along the rows 
every ten feet and string two wires on them, the first 
wire being about eighteen inches from the ground. In 
the early spring tie your vines up to the wires, stretching 
the vines out full length. One set of posts and wire will 
last the lifetime of the plants or ten to fifteen years.
