wonderful crop of superfine red raspberries, which are large, 
firm and extra good flavor. 
It is two or three weeks earlier than Indian Summer Ever- 
bearing. If you live in a section where early fall frosts get most 
of your fall crop, it will pay you to try Durham. 
We sold out of all plants last spring and fall and no more 
will be available until fall of 1951. Write now and secure your 
order for October or November 1951. 
How to Grow Durham 
Cut all canes back to the ground in the fall. Your crop will 
come on the new canes, which practically eliminates raspberry 
diseases, as there are no canes to carry over winter. The crop of 
berries is nearly as big as any of the standard spring bearing 
varieties, with the great advantage that berries come off season, 
when prices are highest. Supply very limited.

RASPBERRY CULTURE 
Select a good piece of ground that is slightly elevated and 
prepare the soil thoroughly. It is advisable to spread the land 
with manure before planting. Spring planting is considered 
the best in most sections. For hill system the usual distance to 
plant is 5 ft. by 5 ft. If the hedge system is desired, plant 3 ft. 
apart in rows which are 5 to 7 feet distant. Before planting, the 
tops should be cut back 6 inches or less, and plants should 
be set slightly deeper than they formerly grew. Cultivate fre- 
quently enough to retain moisture and kill weeks, but be sure 
not to cultivate over 2 to 3 inches deep next to the plants. Af- 
ter the fruiting season remove all fruiting canes, cutting them 
close to the ground and burning them. This will help prevent 
disease and greatly aid new growth. Do not allow over 8 to 10
