I have had to discard the Kittatinny variety entirely on account of rust. EI/D0RAD0.—I head the list with this variety as I think it is en- titled to that distinction, It having proved to be the hardiest in cane of any of the larger berries that I have tested. It is free from Orange Rust or other disease, medium early in season, especially adapted to the home garden as it is large, juicy and of good flavor and without the hard core of some varieties. It will also sell well in market as it is jet black and holds its color well. This is becoming a very popular sort and the supply of plants is limited, not nearly enough to fill the demand. Order early. Doz., 30c; hundred, $; housand, $ No. 1 root cuttings, doz., 35c; hundred, $ EARLY extra early blackberry, ex- ceedingly hardy variety of great merit. Needs no winter protection, always producing large crops. Canes of a strong growth, as hardy as Snyder and very prolific. It is much larger than Karly Harvest and its delicious sweetness renders it of special value for home use or market. It is also free from double bloom and other disease, will go through hard spring frost in blossoming time without injury. Those who have tried this variety are well pleased. Doz., 35c; hundred, $; thousand, $ ERIE.—A chance seedling but recently brought to the notice of the public, and considered a valuable acqusi- tion, being perfectly hardy and very productive; fruit of first quality
