SMALL BERRY PLANTS—THE FARMERS FRIEND EVERY YEAR PLANT SMALL FRUITS FOR A Raspberries, Strawberries, Blackberries, Boysenberries, Blueberries, RASPBERRIES CUMBERLAND (Black) THE CUaiBERLAND CONTINUES TO BE THE UNIVERSAL, BLACK RASPBERRY. Its popularity with the growers is unchallenged. Cumberland has come down through the years and on its record stands as America's leading black raspberry. It is the choice of the commercial grow- ers in the central and northern regions. One of the largest of the Black Caps; plants are healthy, vigorous growers, throwing up stout, well branched canes that produce immense crops of mag- nificent berries. The fruit is large and holds up well during the picking sea- son ; very firm and rated as one of the most delicious of the black caps. NEW MORRISON (BLACK RASPBERRY) Gives promise of surpassing all other Black Raspberries. Large size, very disease resistant, firm, heavy, consist- ent bearer. Originated in Northern Ohio, pro- nounced the most promising late Black Raspberry being tested at the N. Y. Station. Mr. Morrison's original plants are over 12 years old and show no dis- ease. Bore a fine crop of large berries in 1941 in spite of the severe drought. The berries are extremely large, many measuring over % inch in diameter and they do not crumble and has topped the Pittsburgh markets by $1.00 to $2.00 per crate during the past two seasons. A little later than Cumberland, has fine dark glossy color and berries hold up well after picking, having exceptional good quality. A worthy new variety from all tests and observations. Prices are listed below. NEW LOGAN (Black) One of the New Logan's outstanding characteristics is its resistance to mosaic and other raspberry diseases. It seems to outclass other black raspberry varieties in this respect, and this is one of the primary reasons why it is gaining popularity. 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 up well through drought, the last picking as fresh and free from seediness as the first. A thrifty grower, and, although not as upright as Cumberland, our growers find this no objection if the summer shoots are topped higher than noraml. CUMBERLAND

SUNRISE (The New Red Raspberry) COMBINING EARI.INESS—HARDINESS—QUALJTY This new berry is said to ripen 10 to 16 days earlier than Latham. It's size is intermediate between Ranere and Latham, but nearer the size of Latham. It has been more resistant to anthracnose, leaf spot, cane blight, and the resistance shown is probably one of the important factors in its ability to withstand low temperatures. In New Jersey where the variety has been given extensive tests the Sunrise has come through low temperatures with practically no injury, whereas Latham and other varieties were severely injured. U. S. Circular 397 describes the quality of SUNRISE as follows: "The druplets are small, making the berry more attractive than Latham. The color is bright red but turns dark red on ripening—the berries pick easily. They are firm, fine textured, juicy, non-crumbly, mild sub-acid in flavor with good raspberry aroma, and bet- ter in quality than Latham and better than Ranere un- der some circumstances." SUNRISE has a long picking season because it pro- duces a number of long shoots which come from buds near the base of the canes which are much later than laterals toward the tips of the canes. In mose cases SUNRISE will continue to produce some fruit even after Latham is practically finished. We recommend SUNRISE for trial in all sections where Red Raspberries do well.
