BLACKBERRY PLANTS 
These require but little attention, producing good crops 
of fine berries. They are native to the Piedmont section,

keeping the weeds and grass out, in addition to removing 
the old canes. No staking required.

RASPBERRIES 
Raspberries will succeed in any good soil suitable for 
garden vegetables, and amply repay high culture. The 
best fertilizer is ground bone. Plant in rows 4 feet apart 
and plants 3 feet apart in the rows. Pinch tops out of 
young canes when 3 feet high, so they will branch and 
become stocky. Cut out all old wood which dies as soon 
as i fruit all ripens.
