The Rural New Yorker says as follows: We plant the Cuthbert raspberry
for late, the Hansel for early--both are of a bright red color, and
suitable for market as well as for home use. For a yellow plant the
Caroline. It is hardy and productive, though not of the first quality.
For canning, or for table use, if you like a fruit full of raspberry
flavor though a little tart, Shaffer's Colossal. It is rather dark in
color for market, and perhaps a little soft. For a hardy, early, red
raspberry that is sweet and delicious for home use, plant the Turner.
For a raspberry that is excellent in every way, plant the new Marlboro.
For the earliest and most productive of blackcaps, plant the Souhegan.
For a larger and later blackcap, plant the Gregg. For currants, plant
the Fay's Prolific for red, and the White Grape currant for white. For
grapes, plant the Lady for earliest white, Moore's Early and Worden for
early black. For later, plant the Victoria or Pocklington, for light
colored; the Vergennes, Jefferson. Brighton or Centennial for red, and
the Wilder, Herbert or Barry for black. For strawberries, try the
Cumberland Triumph, Charles Downing, Sharpless, Manchester (pistillate),
Daniel Boone, James Vick, Mount Vernon, Hart's Minnesota, and Kentucky.
