. 
Earty Rep RaAspsERRIEs. ; 
In 1893 the greater part of the red raspberry crop at this 
station ripened within the twelve days from July 13 to July 24, 
inclusive. Any kinds which ripened a considerable portion of 
their crop prior to July 13 may be called early for this year, and 
any kinds which ripened a considerable portion of their crop 
after July 24 may be called late for this year. 
With this standard in view an examination of table IX shows 
that six of the twenty-nine varieties on the list yielded over 
twelve per cent of their crop before July 13. Arranged in order 
according to the amount yielded before July 13, they stand:

Of Pride of Kent nothing can be said here except that this 
crop was from plants set last season. Rancocas, Early Pride and 
Montclair are too unproductive here for pay for growing even for 
early fruit. Coleman’s No. 1 is moderately productive and gave 

one-fifth of its crop early in the season. Ali things considered, , 
Pomona was the most satisfactory early red raspberry tested this ~ 
season. It is mentioned again under the late berries, page 658. 
Late Rep RaspBerRies. 
Referring again to table IX for a list of late varieties eighteen — 
kinds are found that gave one-fifth, or more, of their yield 
after July 24. Of these Brandywine, Early Prolific, Erie — 
and Hansell need not be considered further in this connection on 
account of their unproductiveness. The names of the other four- 
teen varieties appear in the following list of late varieties which — 
yielded thirty ounces, or more, after July 24.
