Can you speak a good wo Cardinal. A new variety from Kan- sas which is claimed by its friends to be the hardiest, most productive, most vig orous, and finest purple cap in existence. 50c, each; dozen, $4 00. Columbian. This comparatively new raspberry is the most vigorous grower and most productive raspberry we have ever seen. The canes are not always hardy, but even if winterkilled, send up new fruiting canes. We have rd for us to your friends? 9 grown canes over one inch in diameter. It can be very appropriately called a tree raspberry. Dozen, 30c; 100, $; 1000, $10. Schaffer. This is the best known of the purple rasnberries. It ib very vigorous; large and productive. It picks easier than Columbian, but is not so large or firm. Dozen, 30c; 100, $; 1000, $10. BLACKBERRIES Require the same soil as raspberries. Set in rows eight feet apart, with plants fr^m one to three feet apart in the row. Thus it takes from two to five thousand for an acre. Cultivate and prune like raspberries. Shave off all suckers that spring up between the rows, and keep the plants in narrow, continuous rows. Mulch with straw about the plants during fruiting season to keep the soil moist. Always cultivate blackberries very shallow, so as not to injure the roots. Every broken root sends up an additional sucker to interfere with cultivation. Black- berries make a very paying crop when the markets are not overrun with wild ones. It will pay the farmer to have a supply in his garden; 'tis much easier than chasing the woods for wild ones. Add 5c per dozen, 50c per hundred, if ordered by mail. Note—We have an immense stock of standard varieties, and will make low rates to large planters. Write for estimates. White Blackberry, Iceberg __sgasgw/i
