GRAND NEW STRA^TBERRY, 



"CHALLENGE." 



(Bi-iejcual — Mid-Season i 



After 3 years' trial we feel 

 justified in offering the 

 "Challenge'' strawberry to 

 our customers \rith the as- 

 surance that it is a variety 

 of surpassing merit. The 

 plant is a large and strong 1 

 grower— healthy in every I 

 way— rooting deeply, con- | 

 quently a great drought re- 

 sister.' The size of the fruii 

 and the abundance with 

 which it is produced is- 

 TTonderful. Even medium 

 sized plants are "loaded" 

 down with handsome berries. 

 The berries average very 

 large — are quite uniform in 

 shape — occasionally a little | 

 corrugated but never cox- ' 

 combed. Thecolor isbrightto 

 dark red, with glossy surface 

 and dark red colored inside. 

 The quality is excellent, 

 sprightly sweet with delight- . 

 ful aroma. '

(Bisexual; Mid-Season.) 

 This is one of the best 

 strawberries for large siee 

 good quality and large 

 yield that has ever been 

 offered to the American 

 people and in these three 

 respects we believe it has 

 no equal. We specially 

 recommend it for the home 

 garden and nearby mar- 

 kets. In productiveness it 

 is unsurpassed— last season 

 a quarter of an acre plot 

 yielded 1380 quarts at one 

 picking, and over 12,000 

 quarts were gathered dur- 

 ing the season from one 

 acre and thisis'ithout any 

 special petting or culture. 

 In size the berries average 

 extraordinarily large, 

 twelve specimens will fill a 

 quart; the size holds up 

 well until the end ; in shape 

 the berries are broadly 

 heart-shaped, often widen- 

 ing at the tip; color dark 

 glossy crimson, fairly firm 

 and of excellent quality ; 

 plant strong and healthy.
