H. HALE'S CATALOGUE OF. RASPBERRIES require a rather moisi-, deep, rich soil to come to greatest perfection and respond readily to liberal feeding; black caps should only be planted in early spring, while the red varieties may be planted in either spring or fall; best results are obtained by keeping in check row hills, five to seven feet apatt, according to soil conditions and vigor of the variety, but it seldom pays to plant as close as five feet; new growth should be pinched back annually, when it attains a height of one and a half to two feet in black caps, and two and one-half to three feet with the red varieties; lateral canes should be allowed to grow at will; then, when in dormant condition in winter or early spring, cut out all crowding canes and shorten in the laterals to eight or ten inches. We offer only a few varieties, but, having tested almost every sort in cultivation, we know these to be the very best of their class. A perfect early red raspberry is yet to be discovered. II plants are to be sent by mail, add 15 cents per dozen to pay postage. RED AND YELLOW VARIETIES. CUTHBERT.— The best and most reliable red raspberry in cultivation. Plant vigorous and hardy, even at the far north; very prolific; fruit very large, deep red color, delicious flavor, and firm. Should be planted by every one, whether they grow fruit for market or family use, as it is the best in all respects of any we have. Season, medium to very late, which is somewhat of an objection to its profitable cultivation in sections where only early ripening is required to make fruit culture profitable. 50 cents per dozen; # per 100; $8 per 1,000. EARLY PROLIFIC {Thompson's').—A vigorous, healthy plant, extremely hardy, and productive of medium-sized berries; bright color and firm, and rip
