ee Blueb rries are ents, grown, ornamental in the 
dawn or shrubbery border, and extremely useful 
from the. standpoint of the fruit produced. They 
come into bearing the third year and reach full 
production in about the sixth. Ten pint boxes of 
fruit from each plant or 6,000 pints per acre, re- 
tailing at 25c to 40c per box. The fruit is several 
times as large.as the wild type, frequently 14 inch 
in diameter. 
- The cultivated forms of Blueberries are easy to 
grow and practically free from disease and insect 
pests. To insure proper gtowth the soil should 
be acid. This soil condition can easily be pro- 
Piz duced by the application of peat.

GIANT BOYSENBERRY’ 
ae eS Out-Yields All Other Cane Fruits 

The Boysenberry is the most remarkable berry 
introduced in-many years. It is the one berry 
that is proving its worth im all parts of the United 
States for both the home garden and the commer- 
cial planter. They command high prices on the 
fresh fruit markets, and are equally as popular 
in the fancy food class of canned fruits and pre- 
serves. 
The Boysenberry is just as easily grown as 
Blackberries or Dewberries, and is much more 
productive. The fruit is larger and of better 
quality, Many of the rich, luscious wine-col- 
ored berries measure 2 to 2% inches in length. 
Reports have been received. of yields of nearly 
double that of Blackberries on the same farm. 


Boysenberry is no longer an experiment. It 
is a proven money-maker. Last year we were 
unable to fill all our orders because of plant short- 
age. Order early and get a planting started. If you 
have only a home garden, don’t miss this delicious 
new berry. If you grow berries for profit, Boysen- 
berry will outyield and out-sell anything you have 
ever planted. Hardy in Zone 4. See prices at bottom

ELDORADO. 


Rubel Blueberries 
BLACKBERRY 
We recommend this variety ahead of all 
others. Berries large in size, very sweet, and of delicious 
flavor and quality. One of the hardiest blackberries in 
cultivation ; has never been known to winterkill. Very pro- 
ductive and never fails to ripen a crop. Hardy in Zone

DEWBERRY 
Lucretia Dewberries are bringing big money. They ripen 
a week or ten days ahead of common blackberries, the 
bulk of the crop being harvested before other blackberries 
start to ripen. 
The Dewberry belongs to the blackberry family, and the 
Lucretia is the best of them all. The large berries are in- 
comparably better than any blackberry grown; of un- 
equaled excellence ; sweet and luscious throughout, and of 
bright glos$y black color. They are very productive, and 
one of the most profitable of all fruit crops. The Lucretia 
has received the highest endorsement and praise from the 
best horticulturists in the country. - Its trailing habit ren- 
ders it less liable to winterkill. 
Lucretia may be propa-

RASPBERRIES 
CUMBERLAND (Black). 

The largest and most pro- 
ductive black raspberry. Ripens medium-early and 
continues throughout the raspberry season. Very 
hardy, and the most profitable market sort. Hardy in 
Zone 3. See prices below. 
INDIAN SUMMER (Everbearing Red). Decidedly 
superior to any other everbearing Red Raspberry. 
- The berries‘are exceptionally large, dark red and of 
unsurpassed quality. Plants produce a heavy sum- 
mer crop that ripens with the standard varieties of 
Red Raspberries. The autumn crop starts in early 
September and contitues until severe frost. Plants 
very hardy, vigorous, of medium height and bear 
heavy crops. An exceptionally fine berry and a 
money-maker. Hardy in Zone 3. See prices below. 
LATHAM (RED). Conceded to be the best main- 
crop red raspberry. It has more points of merit and 
has come into general planting more rapidly than any 
other raspberry ever introduced. It is vigorous in 
growth; withstands the winters of Canada without 
ries covering; and exceptionally free from mosaic and 
other diseases. The large berries, some running over an inch in diameter, and the deep red color 
make it most attractive, and it is the most productive variety grown. Growers are beginning to realize 
that no other red Taspberry will make them so much money SO surely and quickly as the Latham. 
The leading commercial variety throughout the country. Hardy in Zone 3. See prices below. 
SODUS (Purple). This is one of the finest berries ever offered. It is a cross between a black 
- Taspberry f‘and_red raspberry, and possesses all the qualities of each. The berries are of large size ; 
_ purple in color; seeds small and deeply imbedded in a rich, juicy pulp. They do not crumble when 
_ picked, are good shippers and good: keepers, and are better for canning than either red or black rasp- 
berries. The habit of growth is like that of the black raspberry, so does not sucker or spread from 
the root. The canes are model growers; vigorous and healthy. Enormously productive, and is un- 
excelled in flavor either fresh, canned, or in pies. Hardy in Zone 3, See,prices below.
