HARDE oy, 


For a Red Raspberry that will stand most of the rigors of the colder por- yi 
tions of the LAND O’ LAKES area, Chief is the answer to your search. 7 
Compared to Latham, Chief is not quite so large but just as heavy a A 
cropper. It has an excellent flavor, higher resistance to disease and the 
ability to shift for itself better than many other sorts. For this reason it is 
one of the best for farm gardens. Introduced by the Minnesota Fruit Breed- 
ing Farm. 
Chief also has another added recommendation, earliness, being enough | 
earlier to beat many others to the market. Recommended for all zones. S|

SUNRISE A Disease Resistant Early Red Raspberry 
Developed by the U. S: D. A. in New Jersey, the Sunrise 
is a cross between Latham and Ranere. The Sunrise has 
shown a great deal of merit throughout the South where 
Red Raspberry growing is sometimes very difficult. It is 
the earliest of Red Raspberries, for which it is especially 
valued and picks over a long season, often still in pro- 
duction as late as Latham’s last berries are picked. 
It is highly resistant to diseases and shows a remarkable 
resistance to low temperatures. The quality 
is described by the United States Department 
of Agriculture Circular 397 as being better 
than Latham, appearance not so coarse and 
with a bright red color. The berries pick 
easily. 
Recommended for zones up through IV, 
and for trial in Zones V and VI. See prices

UNSUGARED PACK. With a few ex- 
ceptions, fruit should not be frozen without 
adding some sugar or other sweetening 
material. Raspberries may be frozen with- 
out sugar for cooking, but a 4 to 1 sugar 
pack will retain quality better. If it is nec- 
essary to freeze Raspberries without sugar, 
the fruit may be crushed so that the juices 
will retard excessive drying of the tissues 
during storage. When frozen without sugar, 
berries for dessert use are the best thawed 










SYRUP PACK. prepare by dissolving ae 
the right amount of sugar in clean, cold Re, 
water. The syrup must be cold when poured 4 
over the fruit. Leave a space one tenth the 
height of the container for expansion. 
Syrups made by dissolving less than 12 
cups of sugar in a gallon of water may not sae 
properly preserve color and quality. Syrups ages 
must be freshly mixed and should not bee 
allowed to stand for more than a few hours ¥ 
unless under refrigeration. 




in sugar syrup. 
-SUGAR PACK. Coat ihe fruit with dissolved sugar’ and fruit juice 
before freezing by stirring sugar and washed fruit together in a pan or 
large bowl. The normal amount of sugar used may be reduced, but the 
fruit's color and quality may not be protected if less than 1 pounce of 
sugar to 5 pounds (4 quarts) of fruit is used. This is o 
referred to as a 5 to 1 pack. A 4 to 1 pack would mean 
4 pounds of fruit to 1 pound of sugar. : :

Which Red Raspberry Should | Plant? €. 
The variety of Red Raspberry that you Wm 
should plant depends on where you live and 
the care you will give them. 
For the colder portion of the LAND O' LAKES 
area, Chief is the variety to plant. Where they 
are to be planted incidental to other farm 
work, Chief is again the best for its ability 
to compete with weeds and to stand over- 
crowding. . 
Where more care is to be given, Latham ae 
will do well in all except the very coldest 
portions of the LAND O’' LAKES territory. 
Sunrise also needs more care than Chief and 
exceeds Latham somewhat in hardiness.
