PARK BLACK 
_ We were very proud to introduce to the public this marvelous 
new Park Raspberry—the finest Black Cap we have ever seen 
anywhere. It originated at Des Moines, Iowa, and was brought to 
our attention by a former Secretary of the lowa State Horticultural 
Society. For several years we have been building up enough stock 
so that we could offer it to our patrons; it has undergone rigid tests 
and in every instance has proved its superiority. Since offering it 
the past two years, we have had glowing praise and enthusiastic 
reports from our customers. 
RASPBERRIES 
Enormous berries are meaty, juicy, and of the richest quality and 
flavor; they are almost smooth and have a wonderful appearance. 
The hardy, healthy plants produce enormous crops, and are the 
nearest DISEASE-FREE of any Raspberry we have ever grown. 
Plant the Park Raspberry if you want something uncommonly fine. 
The 2-year transplants will bear quicker than the 1-year tips.
