HIMALAYA GIANT BERRY. Picking Himalaya Giant Berries, upcn the Disseminator's grounds. It is quite puzzling to know where to class this, as it is neither a true Blackberry nor Raspberry. The canes are somewhat like some Raspberries (rooting at the tips after the manner of black caps), but the fruit is black and resembles in appearance large Blackberries. It is said to have been discovered in the Himalaya Mountains, 6,000 fFet above sea level, and to be of ironclad hardihood. The introducers state the berries are of great size and are pro- duced in enormous clusters, all summer; rendering it the most productive of all known berries; that they are rich and sweet in flavor, with no core, and literally melt in the mouth. The canes are extremely vigorous and hardy, making a growth of twenty to thirty feet in a year. They do not die back to the root after fruiting, as do rasp- berries and blackberries, but fruit upon the same wood from year to year, like the grape. They also say it is such a mar^-elous fruit that "the truth is hard to ; I have much faith in this prodigy, and if half that is claimed for it is realized when fully tested, it is indeed a berry of untold value.
