Superior RASPBERRY PLANTS 
RED RASPBERRIES—will do equally well on light or heavy soil; however it should be well drain- 
ed. For field culture, Red Raspberries 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 quality. 
LATHAM—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. This hardy berry has 
never been known to winter-kill 
even though exposed to 45 degrees 
below zero. The sensational yields 
of this variety have attracted the 
attention of growers everywhere, 
and everyone who has given it a 
trial is praising the Many unusual 
features found in Latham. It is a 
tall, vigorous grower; the canes are 
extra heavy, well able to support 
the tremendous load of fruit. The 
foliage is a healthy, dark green, 
tough and leathery, highly resistant 
to insects. Ripens about the same time as Cuthbert 
and covers a longer fruiting season than any other 
Raspberry. The 
color is a dark, 
rich red; qual- 
ity of the best, 
with full Rasp- 
berry flavor,

for general planting. The 
fruit is not quite as large as 
Latham 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. Raspberry growers have long looked for 
a good early Red Raspberry. They nave tried King, Millei, 
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 requirements and 
become the greatest money-maker of them all—ripening 10

~ BLACK RASPBERRIES 
Black Raspberries should be planted on a rather high soil for best results. Gravelly and loamy 
soils are best. They are planted about 3 feet in the row, rows being from 6 to 7 feet apart. The 
young shoots each year are tipped or cut off when about 24 inches high, and the laterals are trim- 
med to about 6 or 8 inches in length the following spring. Leave about five good, strong shoots 
per bush.
