RED LAKE and CASCADE CURRANTS 
Both Originated by the Minnesota Fruit Breeding Station 
We think the Red Lake and Cascade are the two finest Currants yet introduced. 
Both varieties are tremendous bearers. The bunch of the Red Lake is very long and 
covered with large individual berries. 
The bunch of the Cascade is shorter and the berries are larger than those of the 
Red Lake. 
The Cascade begins to ripen at least a week earlier than the Red Lake and so pro- 
longs the fruiting season. Both of these varieties are so much sweeter than the old kinds 
of red Currants that there is no comparison between them. They make a wonderful 
dessert if picked dead ripe, sugared and set in the ice box for several hours. Served in 
this way they are wonderful eating and both kirds make fine jelly. 
Plant both kinds in equal number. 
PRICES OF RED LAKE and CASCADE: Strong select bearing size, 2 for $1.50; 
5 for $3.25; 10 for $6.00; 25 for $12.00, all postpaid.

DIETZ PRUNE 
We had almost given up hopes that we 
would ever be able to grow Prunes suc- 
cessfully here in Minnesota and were sur- 
prised to find here in our very own coun- 
try in a Bohemian community a lot of 
true Prunes growing and bearing heavy 
crops. These Prunes are somewhat small, 
being about five-eighths inch in diameter 
and an inch long. Sweet, an intense black 
covered with a heavy blue bloom, and 
borne in great quantities all along the 
limbs. Makes up into splendid Prune 
sauce. Brought here from southern Russia. 
Absolutely hardy. 
Fine heavy limbed, 3 to 4 ft. trees, 
$1.50 each

PIXWELL GOOSEBERRY 
Prof. Yeager of the North Dakota Station 
spent years and tried out thousands of seedling 
Gooseberries looking for a good Gooseberry with 
fewer thorns that could be easily picked. Out 
of all his seedlings he picked this one and named
