Lester Lovett 
(Extra Late—Perjfect Flowering.) 
Lester Lovett posesses 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. 
Johnson’s Early. 
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 it for 
the home garden and also for nearby 
market. 
Price (pot-crown plants), 802. per 
doz. ; $3.50 per 100;$30.00 per 1000.

Michel's 
Early. 
Perfect Flowering—Extra 
Early 
Michel's Early is one of 
the earliest varieties in cul- 
tivation that will producea 
a full crop of berries. -It 
is a robust grower, with 
lever a trace of rust or 
ildew. It. yields boun- 
ly; berries medium.to 
, handsome regular 
conical form, color light 
scarlet, flavor ‘exquisite. 
It is a fine sort to pollenize 
early pistillates. 
Price (pot-grown plants) ; 
50c. per doz. ; $3.50 per 10¢ 
$30.00 per 1000. 
“Marshall” 
(Mid-season—Perject Flowering.) 
The berries are very beautiful and 
average extraordinarily large—often 
14 filla quart measure. As an exhibi- 
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. Ag 
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, 
ruoting 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.
