The raspberry Is one of the best
known small fruits. In its wild state
it has been used as food since the
beginning of history. This fruit be-
longs to the family of brambles of
which there are many hundred spe-
cies. The raspberries of commerce
are mostly included in three species.
These three species are divided be-
tween two quite distinct types, the
reds and blacks.
The European red raspberry, Rubus
Idaeus, is little grown in this country.
The fruit is similar to the American
red raspberry In appearance, of bet
ter quality, but the plants are less
hardy. The early attempts at red
raspberry culture in this country were
largely confined to the development
of this species but these have never
succeeded because the species Is not
adapted to our climatic conditions.
The American red raspberry, Rubus
strigosus, is Of comparatively recent
domestication. In the wild state 1t Is
found more or less over the northern
and eastern United States. One va
riety of this species is native in the
higher attitudes of the Rocky noun
tains. This wild raspberry Of the
mountains is far superior in quality to
the domesticated berry or to the wild
berry of the east. Up to the present
time, however, nothing has been done
to improve or acclimate the berry to
cultivated conditions.
The black raspberry, Rubus occi-
dentalis, is also native to the north
ern and eastern United States. The
black raspberry of commerce is prac-
tically the same as the wild berries
Of the fields. This species Is COM
mercially the most important Of the
raspberries
Another species, Rubus neglectus, is
a hybrid OF the American red and
black raspberry. This species is rel
atively unimportant It Is represent
ed by what is known as the purple
cane berries.
The raspberry has reached its great.

Successful gardening depends on
early production. Cold-frame plants
are more certain to live than hot-bed
plants, and give large per cent Of
good stuff than do the more tender
hot-bed plants.
In constructing such we . use two
frames instead Of one. The larger
frame is Az feet by tx feet and l
foot deep. The inner one Is one foot
smaller each way and only eight In
ches deep.
The space around the inner frame,
six inches wide, Is filed with dry saw
dust well packed down.
The covering for the inner frame is
a glass-covered sash made to fit quite
close to the frame to exclude air.
The outer frame Is covered with an
oiled convassed frame SO as to be
waterproof.
A strip of carpet, or other good ma
terial, is kept over the inner sash in
severe weather.
We prefer shallow frames to keep
the plants from growing spindling.
We choose location free from cold
winds and where good exposure to
the sun can be had. If 1t is a little
rolling so much the better.

northeastern states. This Is because
the fruit demands a cool climate and
a loose, moist soil with an abundance
of humus. In a wild state both the
red and black varieties are found at
their best on newly cleared timber
lands OF the eastern and central
states. Land from which timber has
been removed In the east is nearly
always first occupied by the raspber-
ry brambles. After the surface hu-
mus becomes more or less exhausted
these bushes disappear.
The great drawback to raspberry
growing either in a wild or cultivated
state is the droughts that are apt to
occur at time Of ripening.
Propagation of the raspberry varies
according to which species 1t belongs.
The red raspberries are propagated
from the suckers which come up
from the parent root. AS rule most
Of the red varieties thTow up enough
suckers to insure plenty of young
plants. For this reason careful cul-
tivation has to be resorted to In Or
der to avoid injuring the root system
of the old plant. For when 1t is In
jured it acts only as stimulant to
throw more shoots and often requires
a severe pruning to keep them down.
The old plant can be separated by
division thus obtaining extra plants
for planting purposes, but as a rule
this Is not as good plan as to use
the young shoots with the roots at
tached.
The black raspberry Is propagated
by the tip layerage. This is done by
covering the tips along the latter
part of July or the first of August.
They take root at this point and gen.
orally establish themselves well
enough so that the next spring they
can be separated from the parent
stock by cutting the cane off near the
ground.
The purple cane varieties vary
somewhat in their mode of propaga
ton according to the variety. The
most of them however resemble the
black-cap in this respect and are
propagated by tip layerage.

SOME BEST RECIPES.

These dishes are all successful ones
and will be highly satisfactory If
made according to directions.
Lemon MIX Sherbet.-The juice Of
three lemons, pint of sugar and a
quart of rich milk frozen, will make a
smooth and delicious frozen dessert.
A little of the grated rind of lemon
may be added if the flavor is liked.
Rice Puddng.-Put a quarter of a
cup of rice with half cup Of raisins
and a quarter of cup Of sugar into
a quart of milk in baking pan. Put
into the oven and bake for three
hours. A little cinnamon or nutmeg
may be, added, If liked, but this Is a
pudding that is hard to spoil. Stir
for the first hour of cooking, so that
the rice is we'll mixed in the milk!
Boiled Loaf Pudding.-Cut the crust
from pound loaf of bread and press
as many raisins into the loaf with the
fingers as it will hold without break

Frames and sash should be we'll
painted to preserve them. There are
1926 square inches in such frame,
and allowing three square inches to
the plant, one can have over 1000
plants per frame.
Good rich soil is used, and the under
soil is made quite loose to give a
chance for root growth. 1t is best to
grow the plants in the open and trans
plant on the approach of severe
weather.
Frames Of larger size are not so
easily handled, nor can the same pro-
lection be given in them. On mild
days we give light to the plants by
removing outer sash, and If safe, we
raise the inner sash to admit fresh
air.
These frames are not expensive
where one can do his own work. and
they add good per cent. to the in.
vestment.

NEW MITCHELL
CAR HAS ARRIVED
O. C. Mcfarland Speaks of

mobile

The most important announcement
that we have received this year from

that from the Mitchell factory" says
o. c. Mcfarland, the head of Osen-
Mcfarland Auto company, agents for
the Mitchell cars.
The present position of the
Mitchell factory. in which the older
heads OF the Mitchell-Lewis Wagon
company are now prominently back
in control, shows that the owners Of
Mitchell cars in the past and the new
ones can expect the service and q
product that Is in keeping with the
reputation that the Mitchell car has
always enjoyed
The Mitchell car has been known
as the satisfactory car. We know
this to be a fact from the trade that
we have enjoyed and the latest an
nouncement of the 1914 product of
the Mitchell factory has made us even
more enthusiastic than we have ever
been before.
"One OF the special reasons for this
Is that the designer. Bate, is once
more with the factory. 1t was in the
early days and up to year ago that
the Bate designs of the Mitchell car.

Motoring Public Owes a Great
Debt to the Skilled Pur-

Between the engineer who designs
an automobile. and the manufacture
ing genius who builds 1t, there inter-
venes a step which. while never of a
spectacular sort. Is nevertheless of
mighty Importance. determining to a
great extent the price at which the
car can be probably sold.
An example OF scientific buying
ability Is Chester J. Reynolds.
through whose department the Stude-
baker corporation buys annually
many millions of dallars' worth OF
supplies. sarying in value from the
pencil OF the. stenographer to the
most costly automobile materials and
equipment.
10 YEARS EXPERIENCE
Mr.. Reynolds experience dates
back rs years to his first job in the
purchasing department at the Stude-
baker plant in South Bend. His
transfer to the automobile plants In
Detroit occurred several years ago
and implied a change in detail only.
Backed by the immense Studebaker
buying power. Mr.. Reynolds daily en-
tertains an interesting series OF call
ers at his office in the Detroit head
quarters.
The experienced salesman is fully
aware of all these conditions. He
knows also that the Studebaker con-
tract will mean continuous operation
for the manufacturer he represents,
and a successful season. as a result.
Just how great a saving this repre-
sents to the purchaser of car may
be imagined from the fact that a
manufacturer of material or equip
ment Is almost always ready to quote,

price approximating one-third or less
than what is charged for the same
