LATHAM (Red) 
Leads all Red Raspberries in Commercial Planting 
and Profits to the Grower 
The new mosiac free, hardy red raspberry. Without 
question Latham is the most profitable Red Raspberry 
for commercial planting. It is absolutely hardy. It 
cannot be surpassed in productivenss, out-yielding even 
Cuthbert. Due to its rich , brilliant red color it sells 
readily on market stands, and in addition is a de- 
lightful table berry and almost perfect for canning. 
The berries are large, round and unusually firm, excep- 
tionally well suited for shipping to distant markets. 
It_ripens evenly over a long season. 
We have some of the finest Latham plants we have 
ever grown this year. 
SUNRISE 
(The New Red Raspberry) 
COMBINING EARLINESS — HARDINESS — QUALITY 
This new berry is said to ripen 10 to 16 days earlier 
than Latham. Its size is intermediate between Ranere 
and Latham, but nearer the size of Latham. 
1G has been very resistant to anthracnose, leaf spot, 
cane blight (and the resistance shown is probably one 
of the important factors in its ability to withstand low 
temperatures. In New Jersey where the variety has 
been given extensive tests the Sunrise has come through 
low temperatures with practically no injury, whereas 
Latham and other varieties were severely injured. 
U. S. Circular 897 describes the quality of SUNRISE 
as follows: “The druplets are small, making the berry 
more attractive than Latham. The color is bright red 
‘but turns dark red on ripening—the berries pick easily. 
They are firm, fine textured, juicy, non-crumbly, mild 
sub-acid in flavor with good raspberry aroma, and bet- 
ter in quality than Latham and better than Ranere un- 
der some circumstances. 
SUNRISE has a long picking season because it pro- 
duces a number of long shoots which come from buds 
near the base of the canes which are much later than 
laterals towards the tips of the canes. In most cases 
SUNRISE will continue to produce some fruit even 
after Latham is practically finished. 
We recommend SUNRISE for trial in all sections 
where Red Raspberries do well. Sunrise is replacing 
Chief in many home and commercial plantings.

PLEASE NOTE 
Our raspberry plants are dug early while dormant. 
The Black types are put in OUR OWN COLD STOR- 
AGE as pictured and described on PAGE 40, where 
they are kept with proper moisture at about 34 
degrees F. The Red types are placed in this storage 
about April Ist. Our years of experience in handling 
of raspberry plants of both types and our modern 
storages enables us to offer our customers today 
PLANTS WHICH WE KNOW WILL GIVE THEM 
BETTER SATISFACTION IN EVERY WAY. 


TAYLOR RED RASPBERRY 
DISEASE RESISTANT — HIGH QUALITY 
HEAVY PRODUCTION 
Recommended To Precede Latham 
Introduced by N. Y. Experimental Station fall season 
of 1935. This beautiful berry should have the consid- 
eration of every commercial raspberry grower. 
The plants are vigorous, hardy, productive, tall grow- 
ing and make new plants rapidly. The sturdy canes 
hold the berries well off the ground. The berries ripen 
shortly before Latham, are large, long conic, bright at- 
tractive red, thick fleshed, very firm, sub-acid and of 
excellent quality being superior to Latham. The berries 
do not cling to the bush and carry well to markets. 
EVERBEARING 
St. Regis Everbearing (Red Ranere) 
The Old Standby of Everbearing Raspberries 
The outstanding everbearing variety. It gives a crop 
of fruit all summer and autumn, fruiting on the old 
canes in generous quantities until late in August. By 
this time berries begin to ripen on the young canes and 
continue until late in autumn. Berries are a _ bright 
erimson, of larger size and surprising quality; sugary 
with dependable raspberry flavor. 
The spring crop ripens before other varieties, and in 
the South where it is grown extensively it yields a very 
heavy crop early and few berries in the fall. Noted for 
its disease resistance and ability to crop when planted 
in sandy soil. A fine market-berry for all sections. 
INDIAN SUMMER 
SENSATIONAL NEW EVERBEARING 
RED RASPBERRY 
Finest of all everbearing types yet introduced bearing 
two crops a year. 
High Quality — Early Season — Heavier Fruiting — 
Hardier — More Disease Resistant. 
More satisfactory every year as fruited over a wider 
area. Many growers planting Indian Summer for one 
crop variety due to its unusual vigor and productivity. 
Introduced by the N. Y. Experimental Station, who 
state: “Indian Summer, the first autumn variety of any 
merit that has fruited at this station, is a distinct type, 
wholly unlike and much superior to known varieties. 
The quality is good and the season very early, starting 
a day or two later than June varieties. The fall crop 
commences in mid-September, continuing until stopped 
by hard freezes in November. The bulk of the crop is 
borne in October.’ The plants are above medium to 
tall, vigorous, upright, hardy, healthy, productive. Fruit 
is large and uniform, maintaining size throughout the 
season. Roundish-conic in shape, cavity of medium size, 
smooth, light bloom, color medium red, juicy, tender, 
mild sub-acid, good. 
From our observations and personal tests we can 
recommend trial planting in all sections from South 
Carolina to Canada, feeling that lovers of Red Rasp- 
berries will find the best in this variety.
