They are inspected several times each season by the State Nursery Inspector and have 
been pronounced ‘‘mosaic-free’’ and in excellent condition. No effort has been spared 
to produce No. 1 plants. Our climate and soil are ideal for developing vigor and good 
roots. The special machine used in digging these plants makes possible the excellent 
root system of our plants. Success with Raspberries, as with anything else, depends on 
getting started on a sure foundation—that is, with clean, strong, vigorous, disease-free

disease-free planting stock is available at a reasonable 
price. It is folly to start with the handicap of a ques- 
tionable foundation stock.

prices that may be expected in the next years are 
very attractive. Growing for the fresh fruit market, 
canning, or for freezing will be profitable for Rasp-

root system, and give quick results and 
satisfaction,
