cellent berries in October. 1t was di-
vided last spring, forming sever new
plants, each of which sent up two or
more strong canes, nearly every branch
of which terminated in clusters Of
bloom and berries like those illustrat-
ed. The berries are exceedingly firm,
but juicy and Of rich subacid flavor,
and the yield is far larger than we
have ever before found on fall fruiting
r%aspberries., The foliage is thick and
leathery, has always been entirely
healthy, while the canes have never
been harmed eve by the severe winter
Of 19O4-O5, though absolutely without
protection. The berries are shown in
natural size. The color is lighter pur-
pie red than any purple ane variety
we have grown. If the variety main
.tains it's prolific autumn bearing habit
