RASPBERRIES PAY BIG DIVIDENDS ON LOCAL AND COMMERCIAL MARKETS jjountiful Ri< BERRY Plants INCREASE PRODUCTION WITH BOUNTIFUL RIDGE GROWN RED RASPBERRY PLANTS Plant this year to meet the ever increasing demand for one of America's most popular small fruits. LATHAM SUNRISE Leads all Red Raspberries in Commercial Planting and Profits to the Grower The new mosaic free, hardy red raspberry. Without ques- tion Latham is the most profitable Red Raspberry for com- mercial planting. It is absolutely hardy. It cannot be sur- passed in productiveness, out-yielding even Cuthbert. Due to its ricli brilliant red color it sells readily on market stands, and in addition is a delightful table berry and al- most perfect for canning. The berries are large, round and unusually firm, exceptionally well suited for shippin to dis- tant markets. It ripens evenly over a long season. We have some of the finest Latham plants we have ever grown this year. ^Taylor Red Raspberry DISEASE RESISTANT — HIGH QUALITY HEAVY PRODUCTION Recommended To Precede Latham Introduced by N. Y. Experimental Station fall season of 1035. This beautiful berry should have the consideration of every commercial raspberry grower. The plants are vigorous, hardy, productive, tall growing and make new plants rapidly. The sturdy canes hold the berries well off the ground. The berries ripen shortly before Latham, are large, long conic, bright attractive red, thick fieshed, very firm, sub-acid and of excellent quality being superior to Latham. The berries do not cling to the bush and carry well to markets. -MILTON (Red) Disease Resistant — Best Variety to Follow Latham We are pleased to add this newcomer to our list of fine red raspberries. Milton ripens two or three days later than Latham and is a fine berry for home or market use. The berries are large, brilliant red, non-crumbling, mild sub-acid in flavor and good. The plants are vigorous, productive, hardv. and have remained free of mosaic.

(The New Red Raspberry) Combining Earliness — Hardiness — Quality This new berry is said to ripen 10 to 10 days earlier than Latham. Its size is intermediate between Ranere and Lath- am, but nearer the size of Latham. It has been very resistant to anthranenose, leaf spot, cane blight, and the resistance shown is probably one of the im- portant factors in its ability to withstand low temperatures. The color is bright red but turns dark red on ripening— the berries pick easily. They are firm, fine texture, juicy, non-crumbly, sub-acid in flavor with good raspberry aroma, and better in quality than Latham and better than Ranere under some circumstances. We recommend SUNRISE for trial in all sections where Red Raspberries do well. Sunrise is replacing Chief in many home and commercial plantings. HIGH QUALITY INDIAN SUMMER EVERBEARING RED RASPBERRY Size, quality, hardiness and productiveness combined i our greatest New Everbearing Red Raspberry. Everbearing Red Raspberries INDIAN SUMMER SENSATIONAL EVERBEARING RED RASPBERRY Finest of all everbearing types yet introduced, bear- ing two crops a year. High Quality — Early Season — Heavier Fruiting — Hardier — More Disease Resistant. More satisfactory every year as fruited over a wider area. Many growers planting Indian Summer for one crop variety due to its unusual vigor and productivity. Introduced by the N. Y. Experimental Station, who state: "Indian Summer, the first autumn variety of any merit that has truited at this Station, is a distinct type wholly unlike and much superior to known varieties. The quality is good and the season very early, starting a day or two later than June varieties. The fall crop commences in mid-September, continuing until stopped by hard freezes in November. The bulk of the crop is borne in October." The plants are above medium to tall, vigorous, upright, hardy, healthy, productive. Fruit is large and uniform, maintaining size throughout the season. Roundish-conic in shape, cavity of medium size, smooth light bloom, color medium red, juicy, tender, mild sub-acid, good. Prom our observations and personal tests we can recom- mend trial planting in all sections from South Carolina to Canada, feeling that lovers of Red Raspberries will find the best in this variety. ^SEPTEMBER A NEW EVERBEARING RED RASPBERRY HEAVY PRODUCER — WORTHY OF TRIAL September everbearing is a cross between Marcy and Ra- nere, introduced by N. Y. Experimental Station. The plants are vigorous and disease resistant. The berries are shaped similar to Latham, bright red. firm, not crumbling. Ripens its fall crop 2 to 4 weeks earlier than Ind:an Summer and continues until frost. The spring crop ripens early and plants are very productive. This should prove one of our best everbearing varieties from our observations. Prices on page 3S. 2
