What Some of the Experts Think of the Lupton 
Mr. W. F. Allen says “If I were going to plant 
only one late variety I would plant Lupton. 
This means I suppose that Mr. Allen would dis- 
eard the Chesapeake, his favorite and close 
friend for many years. 
Mr. Garrison, N. J., says: “J.upton is the most 
‘sleal berry T ever saw and tere we growing for 
‘fruit’ only Would grow no other tate variety. 
. EK. W. Townsend, our president. savs: “After 
examining a load of Lupton at the shipping sta- 
; ras threwing them 
up ten feet in the air and letting them drop on 
the crate lid and watching results)—the finest 
berry I evr saw, and if there is any fault any 
where I fail to notice it. Wil! no doubt be the 
reading late berry in a few years,

Co., and is proving a very profitable variety to 
our customers in most sections. Is a strong 
robust plant maker. free from rust, fruit large 
solid dark red and of fine quality in every way. 
Is just as large and productive as one could 
wish, and is a money-maker from all stand-

Late, grows flow and spreading, heavy produc- 
er of large rather round dark red beries. A 
strictly high flavored and high class market va-

the old leading varieties in many sections.

Chesapeake 
Late, the Chesapeake has grown to be a great 
favorite among the berry growers, but not with 
the berry plant-men. The greatest failure with 
the Chesapeake is in the plant growth. Is a. 
shy plant maker, and if the soil does not prove 
suitable to it will produce but very few plants 
at all. Where the soil is rich and springy we 
have seen very fine beds but very seldom the. 
ease. For this reason plants are very high. On 
the other hand it is one of the easy sorts to 
grow for growers to take hold of for fruit 
as it makes sufficient plants for fruiting pur 
poses, and all runner cutting is saved. Fruit 
large, beautiful colored and of very best eating 
quality. 
Dunlap 
(Per) 
Senator Dunlap is probably the best known 
variety thoughout the country. While its ship- . 
ping qualities is not sufficient good to be grown 
in the far South for a Northern market. It is 
nevertheless grown in Florida up through all 
Southern States, and is always a hardy prolific 
grower of large dark red berries that are un- 
surpassed for eating qualities. In the further 
Noth. it is the leading mid-season variety, and is 
ealled the poor man’s berry. Will srow on most 
any soil. and produce wonderful crops with lit- 
tle manure. We always recommend Dunlap, for 
the new beginner. We understand that the 
Juice houses are offering $7.00 per 32-qt. crate 
for the 1920 erop of Dunlap. This will mean 
not less than $2,000 per acre for:the fruit which | 
gives an idea what money there is in growing 
strawberries for market: 
~ Campbells Early 
(Per) 
Campbell’s Early is a very clean grower, and 
fruit is very fine in every way, plants are 
big demand. We have not seen much fruit as 
we sell out close on plants every year. 
Climax 
(Per) 
Early.—One of the most productive early sorta 
quality poor but has proved a great money make 
er in some sections; is very hard to distinguis 
from Klondyke when fresh picked.
