Gentlemen: 
Never before have I written a test 
monial but I consider it a duty to my 
fellowmen to make an exception to this 
rule. The Strawberry Plants received 
from you were certainly in the pink of 
condition, considering the distance ship- 
ped, in appearance of fo‘iage and gener 
al health and length and texture of 
roots. 
I also never before submitted to any 
substitution, but since through my own 
fault I had neglected to order a cer- 
tain Strawberry of which you were sold 
out and you substituted Berries cost- 
ing approximately 400 per. cent more 
and sending perfect plants as perfect 
ean be, in their place, I then came to 
the conclusion that your motto “Square 
Deal Nursery’’-is no idle dream”’. 
I certainly thank you for the treat- 
ment accorded me as well as for the 
generosity,- and assuring you of all my 
future orders.along this line, I remain. 
Sincerely yours, O. E. Brunner 
Worlds Wonder 
(Per) 
Very late; introduced by us four years ago. 
The Worlds. Wonder holds the record as being 
the largest strawberry grown. We have soid 
it to more than 2,000 customers in the past 3 
years, who make much greater claims for it 
than we do. In size it runs more like apples 
than strawberries. In quality it is wonderful— 
one of the most pleasant tasted berries ever 
tasted. Unusually firm for so large a berry. 
In plant growth it is a marvel—makes plants 
in. abundance, that look more like bushes than 
strawberry plants, when grown in hills. We 
have had them stand fifteen inches high, and as | 
big around as a bushel basket. 
and heavy fruit stems that hold the wonderful 
large berries well off the ground. 
variety on the list that will produce more quarts 
than World’s Wonder. Where the largest ber- 
ries are wanted, we recommend Worlds Won- 
der. We have a moderate supply of plants and 
expect to be sold out long before the season is 
over, as the demand increases by leaps and 
bounds each season. We will pay ten dollars in 
gold for a plant that will produce larger ber- 
ries than the World’s Wonder. ;

still’ larger ones on the plants. Have recom- 
mended you and your plants to my friends and

Mascot 
(Per) 
Latest. One of the latest varieties grown. 
Commences to fruit with Gandy and continues 
about ten days longer. Size, large to very large, 
firm and with good quality; productive. Is a 
great droughth resister. We have had Mascot 
berries stand the droughth whem all others fail- 
ed. Until we got such varieties as Peerless, 
King and Superb ever-bearing varieties to pro- 
long our main crop we planted largely of the 
Mascot, but now we use the ever-bearing most- 
ly. 
Parsons Beauty 
(Per) 
Medium. A favorite with market gardeners 
and canners throughout the country. | Fruit 
large and of best eating quality. Not firm 
enough for a shipper.
