Baltimore 



This variety was sent 

 to us by a friend about 

 eight years ago, who 

 stated at the time that 

 it was the finest variety 

 ever seen on the Phila- 

 delphia market. We 

 have grown it ever 

 since, and today we are 

 having more calls for 

 Baltimore than any oth- 

 er for home use. While 

 Baltimore is equally 

 as good a commercial 

 variety as many others. 

 It is the extra fine qual- 

 ity in flavor that ap- 

 peals to the taste, 

 makes it sought for by 

 all who know it as a 

 table variety. We de- 

 scribe it as follows: one 

 of our very best clean 

 plant makers, plants 

 very large, and hardy. 

 Fruit a rich, crimson 

 red, colors all over, of 

 firm texture, fruit extra 

 large, and top shaped, 

 except at the beginning 

 of the season where 

 some overly large ber- 

 ries are mis-shaped. It 

 is one of our most pro- 

 ductive varieties, and 

 one we recommend to 

 everybody who is hunt- 

 ing for a first class late 

 variety for any use 



whatever. We pick this variety every year 

 in our home as our canning and preserving 

 berry. Price this season: $5.00 per 1000 plants, 

 500 at 1000 rate, 90c per 100 plants. 



Sample 



Another old time imperfect bloomer that has 

 held its own for a long time among strong com- 

 petition. Season late. The Sample is a perfect 

 type of strawberry, bright red in color, large in 

 size, delicious in flavor, and attractive. It is 

 very productive and quite firm. It is considered 

 a reliable standard 

 in most sections. We 

 recommend such va- 

 rieties as Joe John- 

 son, Aroma, Town- 

 send Late, Rewastico, 

 as best to fruit the 

 Sample. Price: $3.50 

 per 1000, 500 at 1000 

 rate.

Sherman 



One of our own introductions. After three 

 seasons of testing by the Experiment Stations, 

 we are receiving some very flattering reports 

 about the Sherman. It seems to be doing equal- 

 ly well in nearly all sections. We describe it 

 again as follows: Season medium to late (hav- 

 ing a very long fruiting season), size of fruit 

 extra large, cardinal red to the center, and 

 without any excep- 

 tions one of the very 

 best flavored berries 

 grown. Not quite as 

 productive as some 

 varieties, but every 

 berry is a shining 

 beauty. 



Price: $5.00 

 per 1000. 500
