MISSIONARY. 



{Early — Perfect Flowering.) 



This fine variety originated in Delaware. It is very 

 early and very productive. The plants are large and vigor- 

 ous. The berries are broadly conical and very uniform in 

 shape and size; of a dark rich red and as glossy as if var- 

 nished. The flesh is firm, fairly juicy and red to the core. 

 Calyx separates readily from the fruit so that is easily hulled. 



Price, (pot-grown plants), 60c. per doz.; $4.00 per 100; 

 $35.00 per 1000. 



MARSHALL. 



{Mid-season — Perfect Flowering.) 



The berries are very beautiful and average extraordinarily 

 large — often 14 fill a quart measure. As an exhibition berry 

 and for home use it is peerless — 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 pro- 

 ductiveness, it will not yield as large a number of berries as 

 some varieties, 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 stand" 

 ing drought well. The large luxuriant foliage is sufficient to 

 protect the blossom from late frosts. (See cut). Price, (pot- 

 grown plants), 60c. per doz.; $4.00 per 100; $35.00 per 1000, 



MICHEL'S EARLY. 



(Perfect Flowering — Extra Early.) 



Michel's Early is one of the earliest varieties in cultivation 

 that will produce a full crop of berries. It is a robust grower, 

 with never a trace of rust or mildew. It yields bountifully: 

 berries medium to large, handsome, regular conical form.colos 

 light scarlet, flavor exquisite. It is a fine sort to pollenize 

 early pistillates. Price, (pot-grown plants,) 50c. per doz,; 

 $3.50 per 100; $30.00 per 1000. 



New York 



(Mid-season — Perfect Flowering.) 

 This is the strawberry, a 

 seedling of Bubach and Jessie 

 raised by a New York lady, that 

 captured the prize of $100 in gold 

 offered for the best and largest 

 variety. The plant is an unusually 

 robust grower, making but few 

 runners, throwing its strength and 

 vigor into the magnificent berries, 

 which, in consequence, are pro- 

 duced in great abundance and are 

 of immense size, sometimes mea- 

 suring over seven inches in cir- 

 cumference. In form they are 

 very handsome and regular, of a 

 rounding conical shape. Color — 

 crimson-scarlet dark, rich and 

 Inviting, coloring all over leaving 

 no green tips. The flavor is 

 deliciously rich and melting. For 

 a family strawberry the " New 

 York " is eminently adapted, but 

 Its large size and delicate texture 

 would possibly prevent the berries 

 from arriving in good condition in 

 distant markets. (See cut). 

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

 per doz.; $3.50 per 100; $30.00 

 per 1000.
