 and very productive, fruit 

 of regular roundish conical

 inches in diameter; bright 

 glossy red, firm, of spright- 

 y flavor. The berries are 

 borne on long fruit stalks 

 and hold to good size. It 

 ripen, witli_ "Michel's

 to do equally well in stiff 

 clay soil or light loam, 

 forming beautiful plants, 

 believed to be absolutely 

 rust-proof.

LESTER LOVETT. 



(Extra Late — Perfect Flowering, i 



I-cster I.ovett possesses all of the val 

 uable characteristics of the ' Gandy," 

 with added lateness. It is a veritable 

 giant in every particular — the berries 

 are of a conical globular shape — very 

 large and of uniform perfect shape — 

 holding large to the end of the season, 

 two weeks after other late varieties 

 are through fruiting. The quality is 

 high, of rich flavor, with a delightful 

 aroma. 



The plant is of unusually robust 

 growth, with healthy upright foliage, 

 very prolific, carrying the clusters of 

 berries on strong stems, clear from the 

 ground. 



Price (pot-grown plants), 60c. doz.; 

 $4.00 per 100; $35.00 per 1000.

McKINLEY. 



Mid-season — Perfect Flowering. 



The number of new strawberries an- 

 nually introduced is so great that we 

 almost hesitate to add to the list, but 

 this new variety has so many desirable 

 qualities that we believe it deserves 

 recognition and dissemination. 



It has been thoroughly tested 

 among the many kinds of new and old, 

 that we have growing; it has many 

 points of superiority, being conspicu- 

 ous for its size, shape, color and qual- 

 ity. In size it is unusually large; 

 shape roundish, inclining to conical; 

 but sometimes flattened or coxcombed 

 color crimson, flesh moderately firm 

 and quality extra good. The plant is 

 vigorous, healthy and a great yielder. 

 We can confidently recommend il for 

 the home garden and also for nearby 

 market. 



Price (pot-grown slants), 50c. per 

 doz.; $3.50 per 100; $30.00 per 1000. 



Michel s Early is one ■•, 

 the earliest varieties in ci I 

 tivation that will produce 

 a full crop of berries. It 

 is a robust grower, with 

 never a trace of rust or 

 mildew. It yields boun- 

 tifully; berries medium to 

 large, handsome, regular 

 conical form, color light 

 scarlet, flavor exquisite 

 It is a fine sort to pollenize 

 early pistillates.

(Mid-season— Perfect Flowering.) 

 The berries are very beautiful and 

 average extraordinarily large — often 

 14 fill a quart measure. As an exhil i 

 tion berry and for home use it is peer- 

 less — it captures the prize wherever 

 exhibited, almost without exception. 

 It is the first of the extra large berries 

 to ripen, and although of great size, 

 the fruit is rarely ever mis-shapen. 

 The color is a rich glossy crimson that 

 everyone admires — the surface color 

 running well into the flesh, and the 

 quality is far above the average. As 

 to productiveness, it will not yield as 

 large a number of berries as some vari- 

 eties, but when measured in quarts or 

 bushels, will be above the average. 

 The plant is faultless, a strong grower, 

 often standing 20 to 22 inches high, 

 rooting deeply and standing drought 

 well. The large luxuriant foliage is 

 sufficient to protect the blossom from 

 late frosts. 



Price (pot-grown plants), 50c. per 

 doz.; $3.50 per 100; $30.00 per 1000.
