NEW LOGAN RASPBERRY
Text Appearing After Image:
CHIEF RASPBERRY NEW LOGAN Most Dependable Early Black Raspberry One of the New Logan's outstanding characteristics is its re- sistance to mosaic and other raspberry diseases. It seems to outclass all other black raspberry varieties in this respect, and this is one of the primary reasons why it is gaining popularity among the growers who depend on black raspberries for their livelihood. The berry ripens one week earlier than Cumberland. It is a heavier yielder and the glossy black berries are as large as that variety. It holds well through drought and in fact the last picking has always proven as fresh and free from seediness and tendency to crumble as the first. Another good feature of the New Logan is that it ripens its crop quickly and does not string out over a period of time, thus making picking much easier. A thrifty grower, and, although not as upright as Cumber- land, our growers find this no objection if the summer shoots are topped higher than normal. Prices, No. 1 Tips—$1.25 for 25; $2.75 for 100; $12.00 for 500; $20.00 for 1000. Black Beauty Newburg An unusual thrifty and disease resistant seedling Black Raspberry which originated on the farm of Ross Cowen, Green County. Ohio, where it has been grown as a commercial variety for several years. This splen- did variety was introduced by a prominent Ohio Nur- seryman spring of 1932. It surely is a step forward in producing mid-season black Raspberries and gives promise of replacing- to a degree the Cumberland which has been the standby for years. It is a very thrifty grower and should be planted about 5 ft. apart. You will find it hardier than Cumberland and equally as productive as the best Cumberlands. The berries are large, firm, black, with very little greyish bloom and the berry does not crumble. Up to the present time it has shown no mosaic curl or streak although planted close to infected beds. It has shown itself to be un- usually resistant to Anthracnose which alone should recommend it. $1.50 for 25; $3.50 lor 100; $15.00 for 500; $27.50 for 1000. Williamstown, N. J., April 4. 1932. Bountiful Ridge Nurseries Princess Anne, Maryland Dear sirs: We receded the nursery stock you sent us all O. K. It came the same day we got your card. John Huber A NEW RED RASPBERRY INTRODUCED BY THE NEW YORK FRUIT TESTING ASSOCIATION. ALL TESTS HAVE SHOWN IT TO BE PRACTICALLY IMMUNE FROM MOSAIC. We are glad to be able to offer this variety to our patrons so soon after its introduction and wish to say that our supply is very limited and we cannot offer more than 500 plants to any one customer. We feel it should have a fair trial by every Raspberry grower for this is the only way they are able to judge its real merits. It seems to have everything to recommend it and we know you will not be disappointed in it. We give the same description of the Newburg as the intro- ducers gave. Newburg, a cross between .Newman and Herbert, seems to be the most promising variety in the Station collection. The fruit is very large, very firm, does not crumble, and is superior to Latham in quality, but in- ferior to Cuthbert in that respect. The color is a bright, attractive red. In keeping and shipping quality it has no superior. The plants are vigorous, hardy, and very l>roductive, in fact, the weight of the fruit is so great that the canes are often bent to the ground. The fruit is borne out in the open where it may be readily pick- ed. It is necessary to support them with wire along each side of the row. No mosaic has yet appeared in tin' stock of Newburg. In season it is three to four days earlier than Cuthbert. $2.00 for 25; $3.00 for 50; $6.00 for 100; $25.00 for 500; $45.00 for 1000.
