NEW YORK: => 
Vv 
enderson’s “Great Rubu.”’ (Pistillate, midseason to late.) 
This new seedling Strawberry has proved to be one of 
the finest varieties ever introduced, and we predict that it will 
become a popular favorite among all growers and consumers 
of strawberries, particularly among those who desire the most 
uniformly, handsome and large, richly colored, delightfully 
flavored strawberry for the home table. Henderson’s ‘‘Great 
Ruby’’ fills all of these requirements in a superlative degree. 
In our fifty years of experience in testing, growing and hybrid- 
izing strawberries, there has been no variety that we could 
send out with the abiding confidencethat we havein Henderson’s 
‘*Great Ruby,’’ proving highly satisfactory to all purchasers. 
The healthy, vigorous growth, remarkable productiveness, im- 
mense size, handsome uniform shape, deep lustrous crimson 
color, and, above all, the rich, luscious flavor, combined with 
the delightful aroma, render Henderson’s ‘‘Great Ruby’’ peer- 
less among strawberries. It commences to ripen soon after the 
early varieties, and bears until nearly all others are gone. The 
luxuriant growth of the plant and its remarkable deep-rooting 
qualities enable it to procure beautiful large berries even during 
a dry season, when other varieties are withered and fruitless.

Bederwood (Rackster). (Zarly.) A valuable early Straw- 
berry; an enormous bearer, large size, light scarlet. 
Bubach No. 5 (P). (I/dseason.) A prominent Strawberry 
grower says: ‘‘If all varieties were culled out but ten, he 
would place Bubach No. 5 at the head of the list on account of 
its large, bright berries, immense yield and fine flavor.”’

Rathbun Blackberry We are slow to praise anew fruit. 
* New varieties appear so rapidly 
and are usually such a slight improvement on the standard 
sorts that caution is necessary; but after atrial of this we are 
so impressed by its great value that we unhesitatingly recom- 
mend it. No matter from what standpoint it is judged it will 
bear the most rigid inspection. The plant is very vigorous, 
branching naturally, producing an abundance of fruiting canes 
and an abundance of large, luscious fruit. It ‘*suckers’’ but 
slightly, the roots are strong and branching, penetrating deeply 
into the soil, a valuable characteristic in dry seasons and 
locations. The fruit is very large and handsome, intense black 
with a very high polish and without any hard core, juicy, high- 
flavored; of so superior a quality that it is ina class by itself. 
It literally melts in the mouth. =a

Glen Mary. (J/idseason.) This fine variety is of large size, good quality 
and large yield, one of the best that has ever been offered. In these 
three respects we believe it is unsurpassed. In productiveness it is 
without a superior. Color, dark glossy-crimson. 
Haverland (P). (arly.) One of the best berries in existence; extra 
early and marvelously productive. Bright glossy-crimson. 
Michel’s Early. (az/y.) This is a robust grower; yields bountifully ; 
berries medium to large; color, bright scarlet. A strong grower. 
Sample. (Late, pistillate.) This variety is now classed by professional 
Strawberry growers as one of the reliable standard kinds—one that 
can be depended upon to give universal satisfaction under almost any 
condition. It is a strong, vigorous grower, very productive, not the 
largest berry grown, but it averages big and wonderfully uniform. 
Quality and color everything to be desired, crimson to the core. 
Sharpless. (J/idseason.) One of the most popular. Plant exceedingly 
vigorous, very productive; fruit large, crimson, firm and of good 
quality. Grand for market and home. A recognized standard for merit. 
"©The Gandy.’ (Zaze.) One of the best Jafe Strawberries ever intro- 
duced. Strictly fancy. The fruits are uniformly large, perfect in 
form, and firm; color, bright crimson and as glossy as if varnished. 
Quality superb, remarkable for its delightful aroma. 
Price for above, 30c. per doz., $1.50 per 100, $10.09 per1,000. (Zvans- 
planted plants.) If wanted by mail, add 25c. per 100 for postage. 
Note.—Those marked with the letter P are pistillate and must have arow of a perfect- 
flowered sort every nine or twelve feet among them to pollenize their blossoms.
