fine, rich flavor are borne heavily on the old canes in early summer. Then in a few weeks 
the new canes start the new crop, bearing continuously until frost, Fall fruits are of even 
finer quality. Hardy, healthy, vigorous plants bear large crops with little care. The fruit 
eaten fresh, or made up into jam or jelly has delicious, sweet quality and aroma; fine for 
freezing. September starts bearing the FIRST SEASON. Be sure to include some of these 
grand berries in your raspberry rows.

2 PARK BLACK 
RASPBERRY 
We were very proud to introduce to planters. this marvelous 
new Park Raspberry—the finest Black Cap we have ever seen 
anywhere. It originated at Des Moines, lowa, and was brought 
to our attention by a former Secretary of the lowa State Horti- 
cultural Society. The enormous berries are meaty, juicy, and 
of 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 Rasp- 
berry we have ever grown. Plant the Park Raspberry if you 
want something uncommonly fine.
