-RED LAKE CURRANT 
The Country’s Finest Red Currant 
This splendid currant is another triumph for the 
great Minnesota State Fruit Breeding Farm. Univer- 
sity authorities and growers throughout the country 
agree that this is the finest red currant yet introduced. 
Wherever it has been tried it has met with instant 
favor—rapidly superseding older varieties in both 
home and commercial plantings. It is commonly said 
that Red Lake will be the most profitable of all small 
fruit crops for Minnesota. Large commercial plantings 
are already being made from the middle west on east 
into New York. 
The berries are unusually large, with exceptionally 
long bunches, well filled out to the tip. They are so 
long that currant picking becomes not 
only easy, but a pleasure. The bushes 
are vigorous and very productive. Pro- 
fessor W. H. Alderman states that he

from $500 to $1,000 per acre even at pre- 
believes it is the largest fruited and 
highest yielding currant in Minnesota. 
Ripens early mid-season and holds 
Pearl Harbor prices, and the demand 
has been greater than the supply. 
Stocks of this wonderful currant are 

on the bush for a long time without 
“shelling” or shriveling so it can be 
marketed when prices are highest.

JUMBO (The New Big Gooseberry)—And BIG 
is right! Frequently the berries are the size 
of a silver quarter or larger. The berries are 
of good quality and ripen green. Vigorous 
grower and productive. For a real goose- 
berry thrill plant Daniels new Jumbo. We 
offer this year a limited number of strong 
1 year plants. 
COMO—A vigorous plant and heavy producer 
of large berries which ripen green. Another 
origination of the Minnesota Fruit Breeding 
Farm. Only “moderately” thorny. 
CARRIE (The Thornless Gooseberry)—For 
many years Carrie has been, and probably 
still is, the most popular and most widely 
grown gooseberry here in the Middlewest. 
It forms a vigorous, healthy bush and is a 
sure, regular bearer of large crops of berries 
of medium size which turn reddish brown 
as they ripe:.. Frequently called ‘“‘the thorn- 
less gooseberry’? because the prickers are 
lost from the wood after the first year.

DANNY SAYS: 
Speaking on CURRANT events—no event in current currant his- 
tory has been more important than the introduction of Red Lake 
Currant. It’s so big, so fine and so productive that I’m afraid that 
if I showed you our fruiting fields in full production you might 
still be inclined to “call me a liar.”
