In Europe the plan of staking is shown in Fig. 78, with bearing wood tied to the stakes and the new canes growing up between the Fig. 78.—European plan of staking the raspberry. The culture is usually only one way. The rows are about six feet apart and the bearing stools should be from two to four feet apart, depending on the variety as to vigor of growth. The sprouting kinds are planted about two feet apart in the rows and the sprouts that come up are treated as weeds. But some care is needed from year to year in the way of taking out the suckers from the stools where they are too thick and preserving them where too thin. In practice the stools are not permanent in position, as the strong suckers will not always be found on both sides alike, so the stools change position about every year. The black-cap varieties, and such purple canes as Shaffer and Bllisdale, are more permanent in position and make a broader extension of stool. Hence the rows should be at least two feet further apart than the sprouting varieties. 251. The American Blackberries.—It is beyond doubt true that we have in the United States the largest and best.
