EBONY KING 
BLACKBERRIES 
A New Upright Blackberry 
Here's good news for Blackberry lovers. This grand new va- 
riety will produee-an abundance of fruit. Most of the old Black- 
berry varieties have become sterile; that is, they will produce 
blooms which fail to develop into fruit. The new EBONY KING 
has been tested for several years, and is a sure-bearing variety. 
It is very hardy, having withstood temperatures of 22 degrees 
below zero. The berries are very sweet, and have the wonderful 
delicious Blackberry flavor. Bears annually and early in the sea- 
son before hot weather sets in. Selfpollenizing. Supply of this 
variety is still limited, so order early. Price: Heavy 1-yr., No. 1 
plants, 10 for $3.85; 25 for $7.50; 100 for $22.50. 
FIELD CULTURE—BLACKBERRIES AND DEWBERRIES 
Plant in rows 7 feet apart with plants set 4 feet apart in the 
rows (1,555 plants to set an acre at given distances). 
Plow a furrow about 5 or 6 inches deep or dig holes 6 inch- 
es deep and 6 inches square. Spread roots, fill hole with soil; 
firm well. Cut stock after planting approximately 2 inches above 
ground level. Let them grow and the following spring cut the 
new growth back one-third, leaving two-thirds of the season's 
growth for production of berries. After fruiting cut all fruiting 
canes out and burn them. Cultivate occasionally and follow 
same procedure each year, allowing about 6 to 10 canes on 
each plant to stand for fruiting each season.

10 Plants for $2.50 
A cross between the California Loganberry, Rasp- 
berry and Blackberry. Just think of a berry that has a 
little of each of these fruits all in one giant, nearly 
seedless, beautiful wine colored berry, with a flavor 
that you will never forget. 
Its size is unbelievable—two inches long is not un- 
usual, three inches long not rare. Fifty of these plump, 
inch-thick marvels will fill a quart basket; a sight so 
remarkable people can’t resist buying them! They 
are rare—they are unusual. The demand is so tre- 
mendous retailers can't get enough of them. 
Buntings’ hardy No. 1, strong-rooted plants bear 
big crops the second year. Do not miss planting some 
Boysenberries in your garden this year. Prices: 3 for 
$1.10; 6 for $2.00; 10 for $2.50; 25 for $4.65; 100 for 
$14.05; 250 for $30.40; 500 for $48.85; 1000 for $85.00. 
Dewberries 
LUCRETIA. Extremely productive. The berries are 
extra large, black in color; flavor rich, sweet and 
delicious. Dewberries are of the Blackberry family, 
but produced on a trailing vine instead of an up- 
right bush, and bear earlier in the summer. Lu- 
cretia berries are firm and of excellent quality. 
Prices: No. 1 plants, 10 for $1.85; 25 for $3.35; 50 for 
$5.75; 100 for $9.90.
