Lucretia Dewberry 
DEWBERRY. 
: Lucretia Dewberries are bringing big money. 
_* hey ripen a week or ten days ahead of com- 
mon blackberries, the bulk of the crop being 
= harvested before other blackberries start to ripen, 
_~ The Dewberry belongs to the blackberry family, 
and the Lucretia is the best of them all. The 
large berries are incomparably better than any 
_ blackberry grown; of unequaled excellence ; 
“sweet and luscious throughout, and of_ bright 
glossy black color. They are very productive, 
_ and one of the most profitable of all fruit crops. 
_ Whe Lucretia has received the highest endorse- 
_ | ment and praise from. the best horticulturists in 
he country. Its trailing habit renders it less 
able *to winterkill. Lucretia may be propa- 
ited from the tips, like black raspberries. It 
ve does not spread or sucker. Hardy in Zone 3.

_BOYSENBERR 
: The Boysenberry is the most Temarkable berry 
introduced in many years. It is the one berry 
that is proving its worth in all parts of the 
United States for both the home garden and the 
commercial planter. They command high prices 
on the fresh fruit markets. 
The Boysenberry is just as easily grown as 
Blackberries or Dewberries, and is much more 
productive. The fruit is larger and of better 
quality. Many of the rich, luscious wine-colored 
berries measure 2 to 2% inches in length. Re- 
ports have heen received of yields of nearly 
double that of Blackberries on the same farm. 
Hardy in Zone 4. See prices at bottom of page.
