Raspberries should be planted in rows 
5 to 7 feet apart and about 4 feet apart 
in the row. A good loam soil is gener- 
ally the best soil in which to plant them. 
The ground should be kept well culti- 
vated and free from weeds. Most of the 
suckers should be kept cut out and old 
ones should be removed immediately 
after the bearing season. 
RED 
INDIAN SUMMER, A fall-bearing or so-called ever- 
bearing red Raspberry bearing 2 crops of fruit. The 
summer crop ripens early (before the regular varie- 
ties). The autumn crop starts early in September 
and continues until heavy frost. The berries are 
large, conical in shape, medium red, rather soft, 
crumble slightly. The fall crops, which you want 
the most, are heavier than the earlier ones. 
LATHAM. Originated at the Minnesota Fruit Breed- 
ing Farm. It is hardy, a strong grower and disease- 
resistant. The fruit is exceptionally large, often run- 
ning an inch in diameter. Color a rich dark red, is 
juicy and has a flavor of the highest quality. Starts 
bearing about midseason and ripens over a long 
period. A very heavy bearer. The best commercial 
variety. The stock which we offer originally came 
from the originator so we can supply our customers 
with the genuine Latham. The Raspberry that has 
no equal for the North. 
See picture above. 
NEWBURGH. Fruit large, attractive red, and firm. 
Plants are vigorous, hardy, and very productive. It 
is 3 or 4 days earlier than the Latham. Introduced 
by the New York Experiment Station. 
TAYLOR. The New York Experiment Station intro- 
duced this new variety. The plants are unusually 
vigorous, hardy, productive, and tall growing. The 
sturdy canes hold the berries well off the ground. 
The berries ripen shortly before Latham, are large, 
long conic, bright attractive red, thick fleshed, sub- 
acid and of excellent quality. Considered the best 
new Red Raspberry introduction since the Latham. 

Heavy-Bearing Raspb 
The McKay Heavy Bearing Raspberry is the king 
of the small fruits, a fruit that should be planted by 
almost everyone, essential in the small lot, and de- 
cidedly profitable for the commercial grower. Deli- 
cious when eaten raw and a top-heavy favorite for 






Latham Raspberry 
RED-—Continued 
SUNRISE. An early Raspberry ripening a week 
earlier than the standard varieties. The ber- 
ries are a bright red color and medium to large 
in size. They are firm, fine textured, juicy, 
non-crumbly, and of the highest quality. The 
plants seem to be very disease resistant and 
extremely hardy; which, added to their earliness 
and high quality of fruit, should make them 
the coming Raspberry. See picture below. 
PURPLE 
SODUS. Very large berries; medium purple in 
color, sprightly and of good quality; exceptionally 
good for canning. The plants are very vigorous, 
very productive and hardy. It yie'ds a good 
crop every year, being quite resistant to drought. 
Ripens shortly after the Red Raspberries. Com- 
ing from the New York Experiment Station, it 
seems to be the most promising Purple Rasp- 
berry we have ever been able to offer our trade. 
Hardy in Southern and Central Wisconsin.

Cumberland 
Sunrise 
BLACK 
CUMBERLAND. The “‘Business Black-Cap’’ 
because it succeeds on all soils and produces 
its big crop of fruit year after year. The 
berries are large, glossy black, of good qual- 
ity, flavor and appearance. A good berry for 
either home use or market. Midseason. 
See picture below. 
NEW LOGAN. The Michigan Experiment Sta- 
tion claims it to be the most promising Black 
Raspberry ever tried there. New Logan rip- 
ens 10 days earlier than the Cumberland, the 
berries are larger and the yield heavier. It is 
disease-resistant and a good grower. The fact 
that it bears 10 days earlier makes it a certain 
money-maker for you.
