HOBBS & SONS, BRIDGEPORT, INDIANA 61. Quillen Raspberries. Raspberries The Raspberry is one of the most delicious and popular fruits grown. They are always in demand in season and command good prices on the market. For canning purposes they are unexcelled. They are easily cultivated and re- quire little care. Cut out the old and weak shoots each year; plant in good soil in hills about four feet apart. With a little care and attention they will produce large crops of ber- ries. For winter protection, bend canes over, cover with straw or leaves, remove early in spring. It pays to plant the standard varieties of Raspberries in good, reliable stock. These va- rieties produce more fruit, of better quality, with less trouble than inferior plants. Cumberland (Purple).
