NEW RED LAKE CURRANT xxx 
PROFESSOR ALDERMAN, Chief of Horticulture, University of Min- 
nesota, writes of the Red Lake Currant: “Some of its outstanding features 
which are of interest to commercial growers are the large, long-stemmed 
clusters which are easy to pick and increase the speed of picking. The 
individual berries are large in size, resembling those of Perfection, but the 
clusters are larger and better than Perfection.” 
Authorities Say of RED LAKE: 
PROFESSOR GEO. L. SLATE, of New York Horticultural Station, 
writes of Red Lake: ‘The characteristics which make this variety worthy 
of notice are the long, well-filled clusters of large berries that are fully equal 
to those of Perfection and the bushes are much superior to the bushes of 
that variety. The berries are a light glossy red that is attractive, the skin is 
tough, the flavor pleasantly acid and the quality excellent. The long stems 
facilitate harvesting. At Geneva the bushes are vigorous, upright, and 
yield heavy crops.” 
FRED ULRICH, Rochester. “It cost only half as much to pick.” 
ELMER HARALSON, Excelsior: ‘Sales records show Red Lake 
brought 25c to $1.25 more per crate than other varieties.” 
F. W. MACKY, New York: “I have set 30 acres of Red Lake.” 
PROF. CLARK, New Jersey: “Red Lake has continued to yield fruit 
of large size borne on well-filled clusters. It has been superior in this 
respect, to Fay, Wilder, Perfection and London Market.” 
MORDEN, CANADA, EXPERIMENT STATION: “Most sought after 
Currant in Manitoba.” 
NEWS LETTER from Morden, Manitoba, writes: “Dietitians are con- 
firming the convictions of our grandmothers that red Currants impart a 
toning up of the whole physical system.”

CASCADE CURRANT :” «** 
NEW! EXTRA BIG BERRIES! 
Another very outstanding Currant recently named and introduced. 
Cascade is a splendid companion for Red Lake. It’s just as hardy, just 
as productive, a little larger berry, not quite as long a bunch, a little more 
upright and ripens a week earlier. 
Professor Alderman says of Cascade: “A very large fruited red Currant 
with large clusters, very productive; ripens a week earlier than Red Lake.”

PIXWELL GOOSEBERRY 
This is the new Gooseberry originated at the 
North Dakota Experiment Station. As the name 
implies, it “‘picks well.” The berries hang on slen- 
der stems about two inches below the branches. 
This feature together with the fewness and relative 
softness of its thorns makes picking the fruit a quick 
and easy operation. Pixwell is absolutely hardy and 
a good vigorous grower, producing large bushes 
that carry heavy loads of fruit. The berries are 
large, oval, an attractive light green color when im- 
mature, ripening to pink. The Morden, Manitoba, 
News Letter of January 7, 1938, says: “Pixwell 
bore heavily and continues the leading Gooseberry 
for general Manitoba conditions. It is exceedingly 
vigorous in bush and always bears heavy crops.” 
Plant some of these dependable bushes this year.
