Golds' Golden Japanese Masberrj. This is the most remarkable of all fruit novelties ever introduced, and, like the Wineberry, belongs to the Raspberry family. It grows in sturdy tree form, six to eight feet high and ripens its fruit before Straw- berries, a month before the earliest Raspberries, and before some of them have hardly wakened from their winter's rest. The bushes are distinct from other berries, with spreading, tree-like tops, large, bell-shaped, pendulous blossoms, which hang along the ent ire length of the branches In pairs or triplets. These large, handsome blossoms are followed by great glossy berries which are of a golden-yellow color, and in quality sweet and luscious beyond description. There is nothing like it in cultivation, and its extreme earli- ness makes it at once the most important of all small fruits. The bushes are entirely hardy in any location. We pur- chased this berry when there were only about a dozen plants of it. and it cost a small fortune. The stock is yet limited. We have every reason to believe that the common wild Salmon Berry of Oregon is being sold as the Japanese May- berry. As the introducer, we have the genuine stock, and we hope people will not be deceived by that which is bogus. Childs' Japanese Golden Mayberry is not a wild or native berry of any country, but is a Hybrid raised by Lather Bur- bank, from Japanese species.
