South or those grown under shade often lose
most of their foliage when set in sunny loca-
tions. You will avoid this trouble by securing
our hardy Vermont grown plants.

unite with the Quince root on which other

RASPBERRY PLANTS

Not only are Raspberries one of the most
delicious of all fruits for home use, but they
are also one of the safest to plant commer-
cially. In our twenty years of growing Rasp-
berries there has never been a time but what
all we produced could be sold.

Plant on good, well-drained soil, on a slope,
if possible, and cultivate freely. Fertilize with
chemicals and wood ashes rather than manure.
Of the red varieties about 2400 to 3000 plants
per acre are required, planted 21% to 3 ft.
apart in rows 6 ft. apart. The black and pur-
ple varieties, planted 3 ft. apart in rows 7 ft.
apart, take about 2000 plants per acre.
Columbian (Purple). This is the standard
purple raspberry. Makes no sucker plants but
roots from the tips. With good conditions ex-
tremely heavy yields are obtained. Splendid
for canning. $1.00 per 12, $1.50 per 25,

diest of all raspberries. No injury was ap-
parent after the winter of 1933-34. Newburgh
bears very heavy crops of immense berries,
ripening in mid-season. Fruit is of good
quality and very firm, making it the best
shipping raspberry. Newburgh is very re-
sistant to disease. The canes are medium
height. $1.50 per 25, $4.00 per 100, $30.00
per LOOO.

black-cap raspberries ripening early in the

than Newburgh. The berries ripen shortly
before Latham. $2.00 per 25, $5.00 per 100,
$40.00 per 1000.

BLACKBERRY PLANTS

bushes. 75c per 10, $1.25 per 25, $4.00 per 100,

STRAWBERRY PLANTS

A good bed of strawberries will reduce the
living expenses tremendously. They should
be planted on rich soil that has been plowed a
year previous. Do not fertilize with wood
ashes or any material containing lime. Most
varieties are planted 18 inches apart in rows
4 ft. apart.

Everbearing kinds produce more berries if
planted in hills and not allowed to make
plants.

Howard 17. The old standby, still planted
more than any other kind of Strawberry.
Does well on light soils and is quite drouth
resistant. $1.25 per 100, $10.00 per 1000.

Dorset. An early very delicious deep red
strawberry. For the most exacting trade or
for the home garden. $1.25 per 100, $10.00
per 1000.

Catskill. A midseason variety of promising
commercial value yielding immense crops of
fine quality fruit. $1.25 per 100, $10.00 per
1000.

ing season. We will have available for de-
