glossy, attractive, and of excellent quality. The bushes are hardy, vigorous, 
and bear very heavy crops. Bristol is worthy of extensive trial for market 
and home use. 
Dundee—is a promising new black raspberry notable for its high quality. The 
berries are large, glossy black, attractive, moderately firm, mildly subacid 
and very good. The plants are tall, vigorous, productive, and moderately 
resistant to mosaic. Dundee is well worth trying for market or home use. 
Evans—is another early black raspberry ripening with Bristol that is worthy 
of trial for home use and market. The berries are large, very glossy, only 
moderately firm, and of excellent quality. The plants are vigorous, hardy 
and productive. 
RED RASPBERRIES 
Indian Summer—the first fall-bearing or so-called everbearing red raspberry 
to be named by the Station is decidedly superior to the varieties of its class 
now in the trade, namely Ranere (St. Regis) and the Erskine Park-La 
France group of fall-bearing sorts. The berries are large, roundish conic, 
slightly irregular, medium red, rather soft, crumble slightly, and are good 
in quality. The summer crop ripens early, or soon after the June variety. 
The autumn crop starts early in September and continues until a severe 
frost, the bulk of the fall crop ripening during October. The plants are 
hardy at Geneva, vigorous, above medium height, and bear heavy crops. 
Indian Summer is rather soft and dark for commercial purposes, but is 
well worthy of trial in the home garden. 
Marcy—this red raspberry was offered for the first time in 1936. The berries, 
the largest of any variety in the Station collection, are long-conic, firm, 
thick-fleshed, medium red, mild in flavor and of good quality. The plants 
are tall, vigorous, healthy and hardy at Geneva. The sturdy canes which 
should not need support, bear the fruit out in the open, thus facilitating 
picking. Marcy is worth trying for market and for home use, being espe- 
cially noteworthy for the very large berries, vigor and productiveness of 
the plants. 
Milton—is a late variety for market and home use. The berries are large, 
long conic, resembling those of the Taylor in size and shape. They are 
attractive, bright red, firm, not crumbling, mild subacid and good. It ripens 
two or three days later than Taylor and Latham. The plants are vigorous, 
productive and hardy. Milton has remained free from mosaic, in a test 
planting, in the Hudson Valley where numerous other varieties soon 
become infected. This freedom from mosaic is an important reason why 
the seedling was named and introduced for more extensive testing by 
growers. 
Newburgh—is proving to be a very satisfactory berry for market purposes. 
The fruit is very large, very firm, and does not crumble. The color is a 
bright, attractive red; in keeping and shipping quality it has no superior. 
The plants are vigorous, hardy and very productive, the weight of the fruit
