Plant set May Ist, 1913, photographed September 29th, 1913, 
Note the 
young layer plants loaded with fruit and blossoms. 
JAMES E.—Perfect flowering variety; we 
are giving it our first test this season. Came 
to. us recommended very highly for a good 
market sort. 
JESSTE—Another old standard still grown 
in great quantities in the Northern States, 
not a favorite in the South. 
Kiondyke 
KLONDYKE—In most places of the South 
it is called the king berry, and rightly so, but 
for one exception, and that is the MISSION- 
ARY, and probably one should be called the 
King and the other the Queen. This is a 
variety that came to stay; hundreds of new 
varieties come out every few years, and mosi 
of them go as fast as they come. But in the 
Klondyke we have a standard bearer that 
will be with us as long as strawberries are 
grown. Many of our customers in the South 
know that there has been a low grade variety 
sent there for the Klondyke, which does not 
resemble it in the least. Thousands of grow- 
ers and shippers know the genuine article by 
Townsend’s long-stem Klondyke. There is 
only one Klondyke, the other is a fake. Get 
your plants of Townsend; you will get the 
genuine article, and at as low price as we 
can grow good quality stock for. 
KELLOGG PRIZE—A late blooming vari- 
ety, with imperfect flowers, and a variety that 
is gaining in favor very fast. Introduced 
by the R. M. Kellogg Co., of Michigan. Any- 
one wishing a good late market variety with 
imperfect blossom will certainly not go 
wrong in testing this one. I have seen it in 
fruit on a number of scils, and it has been 
a decided success everywhere. Fruit large, 
deep red, perfect shaped, when well fruited 
and mated; flavor extra fine, and is recom- 
mended especially for table use. Is firm 
enough for a good shipper, and as productive 
as one could wish. Plants strong and hardy. 
A good one to try.

Dear Sir—I received strawberry plants all 
OQ. K. They are doing fine. The Early Ozark 
seems to be doing especially well and look 
very thrifty. IRWIN KEKEY.
