The Raspberry with a Future 
As its name suggests Early Red ripens early 
in the season. The lustrous red berries are large, 
rather round and firm. Excellent flavor. Very 
productive. Bears over a long fruiting season. 
Retains its good color, shape and flavor in the 
canning process. Freezes as well as Latham, the 
leading commercial variety. Plants are upright, 
tall, hardy, vigorous growers. Leaves are large, 
ridged, dark green on the upper surface, very 
silvery underneath. Good shippers. Limited 
number of plants available—a word to the wise 
—"“order early,” and be sure you will get the 
plants you want.

rich dark red. Carries well in shipping. The 
rich coloring of these firm, fancy berries makes 
such an attractive package, buyers are so eager 
to get them often pay as much as 50c more 
per crate. Folks, there is nothing more delicious 
than Raspberries fresh from your own garden. 
Saves on the food budget, too, sell the surplus 
to your friends and neighbors. For pies, short- 
cake, sauce, jam, freezing and fresh juice, they 
are delicious. Include Latham in your planting 
diameter.

Hardy—Flavorful 
Sunrise isn’t new, but it is one of the better Red Rasp- 
berries. Appreciated for its earliness, hardiness, and mild sub- 
acid flavor. Truly a fine quality berry. The bright red fruit 
is almost as large as Latham, very attractive in the package 
or on the table. Ripens extra-early, about 10 to 15 days be- 
fore Latham: The firm, fine-textured, non-crumbly berries are 
easy to pick. One of its paramount features is its ability to 
withstand low temperatures. Sunrise is one of the hardiest 
of the Red Raspberry family, very thrifty, produces well on 
all types of soil. It is practically everbearing—all summer 
long, it has the unique habit of sending up new shoots loaded 
with fruit buds. Fruit has a delightful aroma, very juicy— 
so good fresh or canned. Know you will want to try some 
this year. (Prices in block above.)
