RASPBERRIES 
Raspberries are a delight in the garden during the summer and are usually very 
profitable to grow for market. They can be grown on a variety of soils and will pro- 
duce over a period of 10 to 12 years if given a little care. The plants should be set out 
in the spring 214 ft. apart in the row, and the rows 6 to,7 ft. apart. Keep free of 
weeds and the following year after planting you will have a good crop of berries.

“SEPTEMBER. (Red.) Wonderful New Fall-Bearing Type. 
So much superior to other “‘everbearing’’ raspberries that there is no comparison, 
September is the newest and best autumn-fruiting variety. Developed by Dr. 
George L. Slate of the Geneva Experiment Station, it bears so early in the fall that 
the whole crop ripens before freezing weather. The round, bright red berries are 
good-sized, sweet and of fine flavor. They are firm and do not crumble, and they 
are wonderful to eat. 
September bears two crops a year—the first in late June, the second and best 
crop in September and October, and these delicious berries coming out of season 
are a real treat. Widely adapted, hardy and productive, it should be in every 
garden. Strong 1 year Plants: Doz. $4.75; 25 for $7.75; 50 for $14.25; , 
$23.50 per 100, postpaid. 
September—By far the best ‘’Everbearing.”’ 
. TAYLOR. (Red.) The Finest Large Raspberry. 
In our opinion, this is the best raspberry to grow. Its exceptionally high 
quality and big, attractive berries make it ideal for the home garden and 
very profitable for commercial planting. The berries are very large, long 
and somewhat conical in shape. They are a bright attractive red with superb 
flavor, tops in quality, and they do not crumble. 
The plants are tall and vigorous with sturdy heavy canes which do not 
require support. The Taylor is a hardy berry and noted for its heavy yields 
of fine fruit on these upright plants. It is a midseason type, most satisfactory 
in every way and outstanding for quality and yield.

~\LATHAM. (Red.) Popular and Productive. 
This is the standard commercial variety, hardy, reliable and very productive, 
and one of the most widely grown types. It is midseason in maturity and 
continues to bear over a long period. The fruit is large, firm and attractive, 
deep red with mild delicious flavor. 
Husky and vigorous, the plants are usually grown without support and 
will thrive under a wide range of conditions, and in spite of diseases which 
seriously affect other varieties. We can highly recommend Latham.

\ Purple Raspberries Black Raspberries 
COLUMBIAN. (Purple.) Fine for Canning. We consider this the 
best purple raspberry grown today. The fruit is very large, fairly 
solid, an attractive purplish red color, and delicious. The vines 
are vigorous and hardy, and Columbian is one of the most pro- 
ductive raspberries now in cultivation. It is a very satisfactory 
kind for the home garden and is extremely profitable to grow for 
market as these attractive berries always sell well.

\sHUTTLEWoRTH. Mosaic Resistant Black Raspberry. This large black raspberry 
or “‘Black Cap’’ is the best variety of this type obtainable, and it is practically 
immune to disease. The berries are deep glossy black in color, large, firm and 
handsome. They are of very superior quality and have a delicious flavor. 
The bushes are strong and sturdy growers, highly resistant to mosaic, and 
yield immense crops. We 
recommend this fine early

home garden and market.
