Improvement Association. The reasons for the choice 
are quite well stated by one of the growers and we 
quote: ; 
; Sept. 20, 1946 
“Our best yield from the New Logan variety was 
8700 quarts per acre in 1943. Cumberland under 
comparable conditions in the same planting that year 
ylelded 2500 quarts per acre. Each year the New 
Logan have outyielded the Cumberland in our plant- 
ing. In part, the better yield of New Logan has been 
due to the fact that this variety produces the berries 
before summer drouth conditions become critical. An- 
Other factor is resistance to disease and ability to 
withstand adverse conditions in general.” 
—H. F. Winter 
We have a very fine stock of Registered Logan 
plants this year. 
BRISTOL This variety is rapidly gaining fa- 
vor for both home and commercial 
planting because of its high quality fruit and wide 
adaptability of the plants. (For more complete 
description see page 7.) / 
CUMBERLAND This variety has been 
the standard of all 
Blackcap Raspberries for a long period of years and 
still is the choice of both the home and commercial 
growers who understand its weakness and keep their 
plantings in full vigor. The berries are large and of 
the very highest quality. : 
The first step in successful fruit culture is to 

secure strong disease-free plants. 
What Are Registered Plants? 
Registered Raspberry plants are extraordinarily 
free from disease; they are strong and vigorous and 
true to name. They are grown only by the Ohio Small 
Fruit Improvement Association. Registered plants are 
produced under regulations which allow not more than 
one per cent of virus disease and not more than one- 
fourth per cent of galled plants in the parent plantings. 
- Given proper isolation from outside disease sources 
and proper cultural care, Registered plants will pro- 
duce for you a healthy, high yielding, profitable rasp- 
berry plantation for a long period of years. Losses 
from the virus diseases and from gall will be negli- 
gible. Yield records taken in many plantings from 
registered and unregistered stock have proved this. 
Look at the yield records.

LOGAN BLACK CAP 
Highly Resistant to Mosaic and Other Virus Diseases 
Every grower of Black Cap Raspberries should have a good block of this Logan variety. It is the best early 
Black Cap grown in Ohio and yields as heavy a crop as any midseason variety. 
better than other Black Caps. 
Most Dependable 
Early Black Raspberry 
The Logan is not a new variety here 
in Ohio as it has been grown for a 
number of years in one of our largest 
commercial berry sections. Among these 
growers this variety ee 
through sheer merit has 
replaced other standard 
kinds until at present 
more than _ three-fourths 
of the plantings are New 
Logan. The berry ripens 
one week earlier than 
Cumberland; it is a heav- 
ier yielder and the glossy 
black berries are as large 
as that variety. It holds 
well through drought and 
in fact the last picking has always 
proven as fresh and free from seedi- 
ness and tendency to crumble as the 
first.

One of the New Logan’s outstand- 
ing characteristics is its resistance 
to the more serious virus diseases of 
raspberries. It seems to outclass all 
other black cap varieties in 
this respect and this is one 
of the primary reasons why 
it has gained popularity 
among the growers who de- 
pend on black raspberries 
for their livelihood. 

The Raspberry plants of- 
fered on pages 5, 6 and 7 of 
this Catalog are State Cer- 
tified plants complying with 
the standards of inspection 
set up by the Central Plant Board and 
may be shipped anywhere in the U. S. 
(except certain counties in Oregon).
