BLACKBERRIES.
Whore wil'l blackberries are po
fine and ho plentiful as they are all
over North Carolina it Is hard to get
groweri to realize that There is large
profit, in cultivating then). The low
prices at which the wild berries usu
ally sell lead them to suppose that
the cultivated fruits would go in at
the same rate. This is a great mis
take. In Baltimore while the wild
berries shipped in buckets are selling
for a ong, the cultivated one shipped
in quart boxes and packed in crates
bring a better average price than
strawberries, and many growers ir
Maryland and Delaware consider
them more profitable. The sorts
now cultivated have been selected
from wild plants at the North. We
have araon" us manv wild plants which
produce very superior fruits. Will
the farmers and fruit growers co
operate with us in developing a black
berry that will bring money to their
pockets? If you know or find a
wild plant with very superior fruit
mark it, and next fail, in November
send the plant to the N. C. Airricul
turai Experiment Station at Raleigh.
Do this and aid us in making the
Station the source of real profit to
farmers, truckers and fruit growers
