20 "HE PROFITS MOST WHO SERVES BEST" PLANT SMALL FRUITS Lower Prices and Some of The Finest Plants We Have Ever Grown, RASPBERRIES A ready market can always be found for raspberries. When well cared for they are sure to return a good profit. A patch of raspberries should be renewed about once in five years as by that time the quality of the berries deteriorates and the fruit becomes small. The plants should be well manured and cultivated at fre- quent intervals. In training allow only a few canes to grow from each plant, cutting away all suckers to throw the strength into the stalk for bearing; all old canes should be removed immediately after the fruit is all picked. Cut out old and weak shoots each year. Prices of Raspberry plants except as noted. Every plant well rooted and twice inspected. They must be right. §1.00 for 25; $2.50 for 100; $11.00 for 500; $20.00 for 1000. ST Drf TC EVERBEARING (Red). The 1 ⢠*V Iââ VJ 1 O neW everbearing variety.
