Quality - Beauty - Productive 
A THREE POINT WINNER 
Given Good Care No Other Late Berry 
Will Equal It 
It will not stand abuse, seeming to do 
best in dark, loamy soil and heavier soils 
where there is plenty of moisture. It will 
thrive on well tilled new land. Like the 
Premier, it is about frost-proof and bears 
abundantly, the plants having large, heal- 
thy foliage. The berries are large and at- 
tractive, being superior in quality. The 
berry is very firm so you ean ship it to 
distant markets. 
LUPTON 
A WORTHY RIVAL OF CHESAPEAKE 
A faney late shipping berry similar to 
Chesapeake in size and appearances but 
does not have the quality the Chesapeake 
has. We recommend it where you cannot 
get satisfactory beds of Chesapeake, be- 
cause the Lupton will do equally well on 
most soils, making an abundance of plants 
and being a vigorous grower, and you can 
always depend on a good crop of Lupton

Large, Bright Red Color, Excellent Quality, Firmness, Late Ripening 
Qualifies the REDSTAR to Challenge All Other Late Varieties 
Redstar is a cross of Chesapeake and Fairfax which has been under test since 1933 and has been under con- 
tinuous test since that year. 
In our fields we have found it to be a heavy producer of large showy type berries which are sometimes ridged 
or furrowed but mainly they are of normal shape. The berries are a bright red and does not turn dark, its flesh 
is juicy but firm, the quality is good to excellent, size of fruit holds well through fruiting season. 
The plants and leaves are very large, the stalks strong, while the flower stems are relatively short thus af- 
fording the fruit buds protection from frosts. 
We have long needed a good very late berry and REDSTAR so far stands out as the challenger for top hon- 
ors over all other late varieties. ; 
; It ripens after Chesapeake and with or after Gandy and Orem. For the Home Garden and Commercial plant- 
ing we recommend planting the REDSTAR from Virginia north. Due to its long season the home gardener will 
have high quality berries much later than ever before and for the commercial grower it means more high priced 
berries to offer long after the season is over on other varieties. Does best in heavier soils.
