As is well known, we introduced the valuable and popular Miller Red Raspberry some years ago. Just after it came out we saw the Brilliant, and have been watching and trying it ever since. It is now offered, though, like Miller, it has been care- fully tried and earned already much commendation among market-growers. Brilliant is brilliant, both in color and habit; for one of its great merits is its trick of ripening up its crop fast — much faster than Miller. You get clean pickings of bril- liant and glossy red ber- ries, large in size, good in qualify, and most attrac- tive in color. There is nothing dull about Bril- liant—it shines! Its color is toward that of the Japanese Wineberry, and in a long experience we have never seen a Rasp- berry with such a hand- some gloss. ,(Handsome is as handsome does ; " and Brilliant is truly.

The canes are surely hardy, for they came through the terrible winter of 1898-99 unharmed, though Miller could not stand the 15° to 20° below zero which tried the Delaware fruits. The wood is stocky, short-jointed, and the handsome canes are loaded with the fruit, which ripens evenly and rapidly, ships in fine order, gets to market in all its brilliancy, and sends good returns to the grower, who usually needs just such help.
