EVERBEARING RED RASPBERRY ¢ 
2-18— A New Autumn-Fruiting Red Rasp- 
berry, or so-called Everbearing Raspberry, intro- 
duced by the New York State Fruit Testing 
Association in the Fall of 1947. It is-the result 
of crossing Marcy with Ranere. 
Berries are of good size and high quality, 
round, and bright red in color, and show no 
tendency to crumble. Fruit clings more securely 
to the bushes, which should prove to be a great 
boon to the commercial grower for this would 
mean it would not be necessary to pick the 
berries as often as is the usual case with the 
ordinary red raspberry. 
This outstanding Autumn-Fruiting variety 
ripens its fruit 3 to 4 weeks earlier than other 
Fall-fruiting raspberries, maturing its crop be- 
fore the Fall freezes, which has been one of the 
drawbacks of other Everbearing varieties. The 
summer crop is as early as that of June or 
about 5 days earlier than Newburgh.

EVERBEARING STRAWBERRY 
(Plant Patent No. 993) 
We are again happy to offer an outstanding. variety of 
Strawberry which will produce TWO CROPS in one year — 
the first one only 90 days after planting. A new variety 
which has all the superior qualities which we have been 
looking for in a Strawberry, plus being an HVERBEARER. 
This berry is the result of a cross between the Wayzata ever- 
bearing and the Fairfax. It has retained the wonderful flavor of 
the Wayzata (honey-sweetness) and the high yielding ability 
of the Fairfax. The Wayzata has always been considered an 
outstanding Everbearer due to its high quality and delicious 
sweet flavor, but it was a poor plant maker. Now, in this variety, 
you not only have the much prized sweetness and wonderful 
flavor, but also a good plant maker. 
> Fruit and appearance of plant are very similar to Fairfax.

BIG PROFITS for commercial growers. Records kept by one 
Minnesota grower state that last year his Rich Red Everbearing 
produced 4,000 quarts on one acre, and although he has not 
kept a record, believes it will yield as much as any commercial 
variety, such as Premier. 
GOOD SHIPPER. During the last summer’s hot weather, 
berries which were rather ripe when picked were still salable after 
3 days in room temperature. When kept in refrigerator, the berries 
were still good after 10 days. 
STRONGEST GROWING PLANT we have ever seen and 
very disease-resistant. Very vigorous and thrifty grower, healthy 
foliage and excellent plant maker. Just the berry for a small 
garden and is successful for the commercial grower. 
Plant this variety this spring and be in a position to supply 
your market when they demand a fine Everbearer of this type.
