belong to this group but their delicacy of color and of texture 
unfit them for even the local market. Others of the group are of 
little value for any use. | 
The white or yellow raspberries belong chiefly either to the 
Ideus or to the Occidentalis species. The pale fruit is commonly — 
correlated with corresponding pale canes and sometimes also with 
foliage paler than that of the normal type. | 
American White. Yellow Cap. Golden Cap. (From M. F. 
Pierson, Seneca Castle, NV. Y., 1890.) An old variety of the 
black raspberry (Occzdentalis) hoc Fruit small to medium, 
dark orange color, rich acid, black cap flavor, moderately juicy, 
firm, good quality. . Plants vigorous and hardy but not product- 
ive here. 
Caroline. Originated several years ago by S. P. Carpenter, 
New Kochelle, N. Y. It is supposed to be a seedling of the 
Orange crossed by a golden cap. It shows /dewus characters and 
may be propagated either by suckers or by tips. Canes pale, 
nearly free from bristles or prickles, curving, vigorous. 
Fruit medium size, orange pink color deepened to a salmon 
tinge when fully ripe. Flesh soft, juicy, with delicate acid flavor 
and of very good quality. Its fruiting season lasts about a 
month. Of all the varieties of either the /dwus or of the str7- 
gosus type which have been tested here it is one of the most 
productive.
