ZILKE’S BLACKBERRIES —_y 
ELDORADO ee a 
Leading Commercial Variety 
Eldorado never winter-kills and always 
produces a full crop of jet black berries of 
normous size. The_berries are large, and 
the hardiest and prettiest ofall blackber- 
ries, with that delicious flavor which can 
only be found in a wild Blackberry. This 
makes it very valuable for all purposes, 
both home and commercial, being so very 
firm that it will remain in good condition 
from four to six days and can be sent to 
distant markets where it always commands 
the highest price; being a berry that re- 
tains its rich, glossy black color until it is 
consumed. This berry is the choice of the 
canner and housewife, as it makes the best 
of jams, preserves, jellies, cordials and 
such good old time blackberry pies. 





New Everbearing Blackberry 
ALFRED 
Best Early Blackberry nes 
Alfred is a healthy, vigorous grower and Px 
produces nearly a full crop of fruit the | 
year after planting. It is perfectly hardy 
and can be grown anywhere without win- — 
ter protection. Alfred ripens a week to ten 
days earlier than Eldorado, producing a 
heavy crop of fruit. The berries are a 
glossy jet-black, the flavor sweet and deli- 
cious, and it is nearly seedless and coreless. 
The berries are larger than the average 
blackberry, many of them measuring 1% 
inches in length. For prices see page 12. -

NEW EVERBEARING 
BLACKBERRY 
This new everbearing blackberry is one of the » 
latest creations in blackberries. They bear enor- 
mous crops for three months, beginning to ripen 
just after the Alfred and continue almost until 
frost; the berry is large, of good quality, melting 
in your mouth and does not have the large core 
that is so common in so many kinds of black- 
berries. The canes are husky growing plants, 
standing erect, resembling small trees and branch 
heavily. We have only a very few plants, to offer 
this year. Heavy 2 year bearing age transplants, 
75c each; 2 for $1.25.
