Cumberland, finest of the Blacks 
It can safely be said 
Cumberland ‘hit tnis is ‘the hard- 
iest of all Raspberries. Black Raspberries 
are naturally hardier than the red varieties, 
and require practically no winter protec- 
tion through the Midwest. In the North a 
protected place or a mulch of straw over 
winter can be recommended. Cumberland 
is a most reliable and abundant bearer, 
with large. black, very firm herries. Good 
for market as well as for the home garden. 
Does not make root-suckers. No. 1 plants, 
3 for 50c; 12 for $1.65: 25 for $2.95: 
for $10.90, prepaid.

Vines and Strawberries, See Pages 70-71.

Extra Hardy 
RASPBERRIES 
Red Varieties 
Chief This is the earliest of all red 
Raspberries, and for home use or 
market it is a grand producer of first- 
quality, large sweet berries. Ripens about 
10 days earlier than Latham. With a 
mulch of straw over winter, these red 
Raspberries are hardy in the North. We 
recommend a mulch anywhere north of 40° 
latitude. Choice, well-rooted plants, 3 for 
50c; 12 for $1.75; 25 for $3.25; 100 for $12.00, 
prepaid. 
This Raspberry is of the same 
Latham high quality as Chief, and 
just as productive, but slightly later. For 
a longer season of ripe Raspberries we 
recommend planting both Chief and Lath- 
am. For the main crop and for canning, 
Latham stands in special favor with most 
growers. The very large, attractive dark 
red berries are freely produced and a fav- 
orite in any market. Plants come into 
production the year after planting and as- 
sure you of quick and abundant returns. 
Same price as Chief. 
Red Everbearing 
Indian Summer Everbearing 
Produces a nice crop of large, sweet red 
berries of excellent quality in early sum- 
mer and starts blooming and bearing again 
in September. It prodtces a handsome 
crop through the fall until frost. The plants 
are as hardy as Chief and Latham and 
they should be included in all plantings for 
fresh berries in the fall. Nice, well-rooted 
plants for quick results. 3 for 68c; 12 for 
$2.25; 25 for $4.15; prepaid. 
Purple Raspberry 
Cumberland, Purple 12, purple 
Raspberries 
are a little hardier than the red ones, and 
practically as good in flavor. Furthermore 
this variety does not make root-suckers; 
its growing habits are very much like those 
of the black Raspberries. For planting 
among other shrubs in the garden, where 
root-suckers are undesirable, use this 
Raspberry. It produces very well, and you 
will be well pleased with the splendid qual- 
ity of the berries. Same price as of Indian 
Summer. 
PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS 
Both Raspberry and Blackberry plants 
should be set about 2% to 8 feet. apart in 
rows 5 feet apart. Plant in good soil con- 
taining no fresh fertilizer; cover the crowns 
about 1 inch deep but set deep enough so 
that another 2 inches of soil can be filled 
in after the new sprouts are 8 to 10 inches 
high. In midsummer when new growth is 
2% to 3 feet tall. pinch off ends of canes to 
promote branching.
