SOIL PREPARATION. Thoroughly work 
soil before planting. Any g good soil will grow 
Ise Raspberries. If the soil is poor, use a liberal 
quantity of stable manure or good commer- 
cial fertilizer, working thoroughly with the 
a soil before planting. We recommend a 6-8-6 
commercial fertilizer. 
PLANTING. Dig a hole 6 inches or more 
deep, or make a furrow large enough so the 
roots can be well spread. Cover roots with 
fine soil. Press soil with feet tightly against 
roots. Hoe shallow occasionally. New growth 
usually starts from below the ground and no 
alarm need be felt if a portion of the top 
dies. (continued on page 30)

Order Early 
Plant Early 
For best results, plant your fruit 
trees early. They will get the benefit 
of the early spring rains, and will 
have a much better start toward 
productivity—and profits. 
To get trees early, order early. 
Your trees will be reserved for you 
as soon as your order is received. 
Should they arrive before planting 
time, they can be heeled in, or left 
in the package where they will keep 
well for three or four weeks.
