Wilkins Early. 



JESSIE Another old standard still grown in 



great quantites in the Northern states, not a 

 favorite in the South.

WILKINS, EARLY (Per.). We are well pleased 

 with the behavior of the Wilkins early again 

 this season. It produced fruit as fine if not 

 the best of any variety on our grounds; was the 

 first to show ripe berries in May. The size was 

 good and color fine. They showed to be very 

 firm and I am under the impression that they 

 will make a good shipping variety and one that 

 will fill the demand for my Southern customers. 

 The flavor is as good as any extra early variety 

 I have ever tasted with the exception of Mich- 

 aels Early, which leads all extra early varieties 

 for eating qualities. I feel sure that the Wil- 

 kins Early will become a favorite in a few years 

 and I advise my customers to try it. It is a 

 moderate plant maker and should be planted 

 on good land. Plants strong and stalky when 

 grown on ideal soil, with good culture. 



Senator Dunlap 



Senator Dunlap (Per.) A general favorite in 

 many sections of the country, and one of our 

 very best seller;s a variety that will suit any- 

 one for most any use; a strong grower and 

 healthy, although plants are usually very small. 

 The fruit is medium to large and with excellent 

 quality. Dark red and glossy seeds show promi- 

 nent, making it a very beautiful as well as use- 

 ful variety. If you have never tried the Dunlap 

 I would advise trying them this season. I have 

 yet to hear from any section where it failed, 

 although it has not been planted nearly as much 

 in the South as in the North. I have a fine stock 

 and prices are low.
