IT’S EARLIEST AND IT’S THORNLESS 
This variety was discovered here in Michigan several years ago by Mr. Henning, 
who found it growing in a patch of Latham. Now he grows the Thornless Red 
Raspberry EXCLUSIVELY. Early Wonder is a combination of tested and proven 
merits. The large and sturdy plants have silky smooth wood, no stickers. The berries 
are borne in large, beautiful bright red clusters, and are very firm, excellent shippers. 
EARLY WONDER 
This variety was discovered here in the heart of the Fruit 
Belt several years ago, growing in a patch of Latham. NOW 
this Thornless Red Raspberry is grown exclusively by the wide- 
awake farmers. 
Early Wonder has proven by tests to be the biggest Money 
Maker in the raspberry world—out-meriting all others. The 
large, sturdy plants have silky, smooth wood, no stickers. The 
berries are borne in large, beautiful, dazzling, bright-red clusters, 
very firm, does not crumble. Excellent shipper. An outstand- 
ing delicacy either fresh, canned or in preserves, jams, jellies, 
and fresh frozen. 









Early Wonder is a Real Money-Maker 
Westhauser Nurseries, West Michigan 
Sawyer, Michigan. 
Gentlemen: Early Wonder is a real money maker—gets the top money— 
because it ripens two weeks earlier than other Red Raspberries, when 
there is no price competition. Early Wonder has made more money for 
me than any other Red Raspberry in a commercial way. It is easy to 
handle because it is thornless. I intend to grow Early Wonder exclusively 
for the market. 
Yours very truly, HERBERT ZIEGERT. 


A delicacy either fresh, canned, in preserves and jellies.

Earliest! One 24-Pint Crate of Early Wonder 
Brought $13.00 
Being the EARLIEST, one of the first 24-pint crates of EARLY WONDER 
brought $13.00 on the Benton Harbor Wholesale Fruit Market—largest market 
of its kind in the world. EARLY WONDER bushes are beaming bright red 
with large, firm, luscious berries long before other Red Raspberries are ripe. 
Ripens ten days earlier than Latham, thus avoiding price competition and 
insuring top market prices. EARLY WONDER bears over a long fruiting 
season, producing earliest and holding its own until the last of the Raspberry 
season,
