SPARKLE 



A Very Heavy Producer 

 GOOD FOR FREEZING, TOO 



Sparkle is a prolific plant maker with good healthy 

 foliage and very productive. Berries are medium size, uni- 

 form in shape and have a bright red color, turning some- 

 what dark on fruits that are over-ripe. The quality of the 

 berry is excellent. Ripens mid-season, being a little later 

 than Premier. Requires good moisture for best results. 

 Sparkle is grown extensi\'ely in N. J., Eastern Penna., New 

 York and New England States. 



V KARDINAL KING 



Kardinal King has created something of a sensation in 

 Michigan by producing record breaking crops which out- 

 sold all other varieties in competition. Buyers praise it for 

 high shipping quality. Does equally well for canning and 

 freezing. 



The plants grow large, making wide fruiting rows. Ber- 

 ries ripen slightly after Premier and continue through the 

 late season. The fruits are large solid red, juicy and sweet. 



^ EMPIRE 



Heavy Bearer — Frost Resistant 



Empire is a medium early, outstanding berry for the 

 middle and northern berry producing areas. It is beautiful; 

 larger than Premier; firmer, better carrier, more attractive 

 and a higher yielder than Premier. Empire has always 

 been a vigorous grower. Virus free stocks make it even 

 easier to get good fruiting beds. The high yields of large, 

 glossy, red fruit are making this fine berry very popular 

 in the Premier growing sections of the country. Why don't 

 you try some from Bountiful Ridge this year? 



"^ REDGLOW 



BEAUTY — PRODUCTIVITY — LARGE SIZE 

 RED STELE RESISTANCE 



REDGLOW is one of the most beautiful strawberry 

 varieties we have seen. The fruit ripens in early mid-season 

 with beautiful large, bright red berries which hold their 

 size throughout the season. The berries are fairly firm and 

 good flavored making them adapted to freezing and sale 

 on the fresh market. 



REDGLOW plants are vigorous and resistant to the 

 most common type of red stele. REDGLOW has been 

 tested from Pennsylvania south to North Carolina and 

 westward to Kentucky and Indiana. We suggest plantings 

 of this fine new berry anywhere in the general strawberry 

 producing areas. 



^ CATSKILL 



ONE OF THE VERY GOOD MID-SEASON BERRIES 



A vigorous grower; somewhat frost resistant, extremely productive; berries very large and good quality. It has 

 proven itself for many years and is recognized as one of the best mid-season berries in cultivation. The foliage_ is 

 healthy in this latitude. It is a good plant maker and very productive. The berries are large and of good quality. 

 We recommend Virus Free Plants of this fine variety for this and the more northern areas. Catskill is the Number One 

 mid-season variety for the Northeast. See outstanding color picture on cover. 



DIXIELAND 



Early . . . Vigorous Grower . . . Good Yielder 



Dixieland is making a steady climb to stardom since its 

 introduction just a few years ago. Originally thought to 

 be best adapted to southern areas, it is doing quite well in 

 many northern producing sections. Dixieland ripens with 

 Blakemore, is slightly firmer than Blakemore and has 

 large berries. The berries are a bright glossy red only 

 slightly darker than Blakemore and uniform in shape. 

 Flavor is tart and good. Yields have run over 9000 quarts 

 per acre of good, large, firm berries. 



A genetic variegation (Spring yellows, .Time yellows) 

 has developed in the variety Dixieland. This is not a virus. 

 Plants are weakened and yields are reduced. There are 

 no known sources of Dixieland free of spring yellows. At- 

 tempts are being made to locate non-yellowing stock. 

 Thus, we can make no guarantee as to performance of 

 Dixieland. 



Because of genetic variegation, Dixieland has been taken 

 out of tlie Virus Free program and can not be sold as Reg- 

 istered Stock this season. As soon as Virus Free clones 

 of this variety are available, we will ofiFer them for sale.
