BLACK RASPBERRIES 
CUMBERLAND. It can safely be said that this is the hardiest 
of all Raspberries. Black Raspberries are naturally hardier 
than the red varieties, and require practically no winter protec- 
tion through the Midwest. In the North a protected place or a 
mulch of straw over winter can be reeommended. Cumberland 
is a most reliable and abundant bearer, with large, black, very 
firm berries. Good for market as well as for the home garden. 
Does not make root-suckers. No. 1 plants, 3 for 45c; 12 for 
$1.70; 25 for $3.20; 100 for $12.00, prepaid. 
QUILLEN. I[n hardiness and in quality of berries there is very 
little difference between Quillen and Cumberland. It is claimed 
by the originator that the berries of Quillen will ripen a little 
more evenly. Market growers of berries through the corn-belt 
prefer this variety, and for them especially we are offering it. 
It does not make root-suckers. Same price as Cumberland. 
BLACKBERRIES 
ELDORADO. Because of its exceptional hardiness this is a 
very sure producer. Berries very large, shiny black, very sweet, 
and well flavored. To be at their very best, Blackberries should 
be planted in a fairly moist location. Selected, well-rooted 
plants, 3 for 45c; 12 for $1.50; 25 for $2.90; 100 for $10.50, 
prepaid. 
ALFRED. One of the newer Blackberries, originated in the 
North, and recommended for its special hardiness. Does not 
require winter protection anywhere. Alfred is slightly earlier 
than Eldorado; in production, size and quality of berries there 
is very little difference. Alfred is a strong grower and should 
be cut back to 2% feet as soon as the new canes reach that 
height. This promotes better branching, and consequently 
heavier production the following year. Same price as Eldorado, 



GOOSEBERRIES 
FOR PIES AND CANNING 
OREGON CHAMPION. A strong-growing shrub, not very 
thorny. The green berries are of medium size and of the finest 
quality for pies and canning. For sure bearing and heavy 
crops you will find Oregon Champion of outstanding value. 
Very nice 2-year-old plants, 60c each; 3 for $1.55; 10 for 
$4.90, prepaid. 
HOUGHTON. This is a very hardy, sweet Gooseberry, of 
reddish color when fully ripe; size of berries is small to medium. 
After a trial you will be convinced that any plant simply could 
not produce more berries. If the berries of Houghton were just 
a little larger, it would be unsurpassed in every respect. Our 
two-year-old plants will give you quick results. 60c each; 3 for 
$1.55; 10 for $4.90, prepaid. 

- - - and Gooseberries 
This makes room for new wood, which will bear the next year. 
Spray Currants and Gooseberries with arsenate of lead, 3 table- 
spoonfuls per gallon of water, just before blooming, immediately 
after blooming, or as soon as the leaf-worms appear, which in 
some localities attack the foliage.
