CUMBERLAND RASPBERRIES BLACK VARIETIES CUMBERLAND—The largest of all the blackcaps; coal black berries; very firm and the quality of the very best; ex- cellent shipper. Bush is a strong grow- er, stocky canes and unusually prolific. Mid-season. PEARL—Prolong your Black Raspberry season and make money until the end. The NEW I^EARL (late) is an extra large glossy appearing Black Raspberry of high quality. It is ver.v rich in fla- vor and is a fancy table berry. The plants are strong growers and highly resistant to disease; also easy to grow. NEW LOGAN BLACKCAP—The best de- pendable early Black Raspberry grown. In some localities where it has been grown for the past few years it has al- most displaced the other standard va- rieties. Berries are as large as the Cumberland, bears as heavily and rip- ens a week ahead of Cumberland. This gives the grower a chance to make some really good money. One of the New Logan's outstanding characterist- tics is its resistance to mosaic and other Raspberry diseases. We have a fine lot of thrifty plants to offer. Enjoy Plenty of Ozark BERRIES Fresh ixom your own garden ... Gentlemen: I recently purchased 15 Chief Raspberry plants. I set them in new ground and have raised three hundred plants from them. We have picked 25 quarts of ber- ries from them and the quality was ex- cellent. I will remember the Benton County Nursery Company when I want more nursery stock. ARCH WOOD, Star Route Dorsey, III. PURPLE VARIETIES SODUS—An excellent home use berry, de- licious for dessert, canning, preserves, jelly, etc. A very large, juicy fruit, a fruit that is easily grown and very hardy; adapted to cold and dry weath- er; does not have many briars, and yields very heavily. RED VARIETIES FLAMING GIANT—The largest of all red Raspberries; a very rank grower, and will produce enormous crops of excel- lent quality berries. ST. REGIS EVERBEARING—The new everbearing variety. It gives a crop of fruit all summer and autumn, fruiting on the old canes in generous quantities until late in August. By this date ber- ries begin to ripen on the young canes and continue until late autumn. Berries are a bright crimson of large size and of surpassing quality, suggary with full raspberry flavor. It succeeds upon all soils, whether light and sandy, or cold, heavy clay and the canes are absolutely hardy.
