CHIEF RASPBERRY NEW LOGAN RASPBERRY
Text Appearing After Image:
NEW LOGAN A Leader and the Most Dependable Early Black Raspberry One of the New Logan's outstanding characteristics is its resist- ance to mosaic and other raspberry diseases. It seems to outclass all other black raspberry varieties in this respect, and this is one of the primary reasons why it is gaining popularity among the growers who depend on black raspberries for their livelihood. The berry ripens one week earlier than Cumberland. It is a heavier yielder and the glossy black berries are as large as that variety. It holds well through drought and in fact the last picking has alwaj's proven as fresh and free from seediness and tendency to crumble as the first. Another good feature of the New Logan is that it ripens its crop quickly and does not string out over a period of time, thus mak- ing picking much easier. A thrifty grower, and, although not as upright as Cumberland, our growers find this no objection if the sumer shoots are top- ped higher than normal. Prices, No. 1 Tips—90c for 25; $1.25 for 50; $2.25 for 100; $fi.00 for 300; $8.50 for 500; $16.00 for 1000. BLACK BEAUTY An unusual thrifty and disease resistant seedling Black Raspberry which originated on the farm of Ross Cowen, Green County, Ohio, where it has been grown as a commercial variety for several years. This splen- did variety was introduced by a prominent Ohio Nur- seryman spring of 1932. It surely is a step forward in producing mid-season black Raspberries and gives promise of replacing to a degree the Cumberland wliieh has been the standby for years. It is a very thrifty grower and should be planted about 5 ft. apart. You will find it hardier than Cumberand and equally as pro- ductive as the best Cumberlands. The berries are large, firm, black, with very little greyish bloom and the berry does not crumble. Up to the present time it has shown no mosaic, curl or streak although planted close to in- fected beds. It has shown itself to be unusually resist- ant to Anthracnose which alone should reccommend it. $1.00 for 25; $1.50 for 50; $2.50 for 100; .$7.00 for 300; $11.00 for 500; $20.00 for 1000. "RHUBARB PLEASES CUSTOMER" Newfield, N. J. ^ ,, March 15, 1937 Gentlemen: Your shipment arrived in first class condition. Am very pleased with appearance of Rhubarb Roots. Thank you for the shrubs. C. F. Coffin NEWBURG The great New Red Raspberry. It has everything to recommend it. Fruit is large as Latham. Better quality than Latham. Plants very vigorous and disease resistant and hardy. Mid'season. Introduced by New York Fruit Testing Association. It is rapid- ly becoming one of our leading commercial varieties. We have put the price down where you can buy and plant. Our trial blocks came thru with extremely heavy production this year. Newburg, a cross between Newman and Herbert, seems to be the most promising variety in the station collection. The fruit is very large, very firm, does not crumble, and is superior to Latham in quality, but in- ferior to Cuthbert in that respect. The color is a bright, attractive red. In keeping and shipping quality it has no superior. The plants are vigorous, hardy, and very productive, in fact, the weight of the fruit is so great that the canes are often bent to the ground. The fruit is borne out in the open where it may be readily picked. It is necessary to support them with wire along each side of the row. Prices: $1.00 for 25; $1.50 for 50; $2.50 for 100; $7.00 for 300; $11.00 for 500; $20.00 for 1,000.
