a TRUE-TO-NAME SMALL FRUIT PLANTS Yr 
— Oe ese reie 
EARLY OZARK 
Early Ozark 
(Per) 
Until the Premier came out this was our 
choice as the most profitable extra early variety. 
We have never seen a failure with Early Ozark; 
a strong bushy plant grower, free from dis- 
ease, or rust. Fruit the largest extra early 
berry known; dark red through and through, 
very tart in flavor until well ripe. In 15 years 
growing plants we have never had as much 
fruit of the Early Ozark as we wished to have 
Boe oe, time. We still advise setting some 
rly Ozark, as it is a sure cropper. 
Big Joe 
(Per) 
Also known as Joe Johnson. 
As a money-maker I know of nothing in the 
strawberry field in standard varieties that will 
Burpass the Joe Johnson. In productiveness it 
is almost by itself. In size and beauty it is all 
that can be desired. There is nothing but good 
qualities about the Joe Johnson. Under just 
ordinary culture the Joe netted our customers 
more than $1000 an acre several times in the 
past five years. In plant growth the Joe makes 
a strong clean plant. Sets just enough plants 
for a matted row. The Joe is a universal type 
of berry. It grows good and “makes good” ev- 
erywhere under nearly all conditions. 
We sold the Joe at our stations here in Mary- 
land this year carload after carload at $7.00 to 
$8.00 per 32-qt. crate, and some brought as high 
as $10.00 per crate. We have proof of one acre 
icking eighty 32-qt. crates one day. I know all 
he above to be facts, and when I say the Joe 
AGE is a wonderful berry I have not said

We have a Thoroughbred stock of plants this 
season. We introduced the variety seven years 
ago, and our stock has never been equal. to 
the demands and we have increased our acreage 
year after year until we cannot increase any 
more. Only one way to get the plants—send in 
the order as soon as you get the bookklet. 
Early Jersey Giant 
(Per) 
This is one of the Van Fleet varieties, and is 
planted extensively in most of the berry secti ns 
mow, and especially as a local market sort; 
flarge, very showy, quality fair, and sells for 
high prices on the local markets. Is a good 
strong plant grower and a prolific fruiter. Col- 
or of fruit light scarlet, flavor mild, very little 
acid. Demand for plants increases every year.

Late. One of New Jersey’s latest productions. 
Is of the Gandy type; said to be much more pro- 
ductive. We have not had time to give it a 
trial here. Comes very highly recommended, 
and a great demand the past season frum N, 
J. growers for the plants. We have a good 
stock of plants this season.

attention to it until we got it started in the 
great berry section around Bridgeville. Del. It 
was there that it soon made itself known, and 
its good merits began to be heard from. The 
growers went wild. In a short time every mail 
that came in brought us letters invuiring for 
plants. Automobiles came to our farm by the 
dozen. It was which to get the order for plants 
in first. We had only a small acreage growing 
as we had not expected any such rush for the 
Townsend plants, and many had to wait. We 
pooked orders 12 months in advance for a great 
many growers, and today this is one of the lest 
known varieties in that part of Delaware: and is 
still leading their very best varieties. The Town- 
send’s late is a perfect flowering variety. Fruit 
large and round; color bright red to the center. 
A havy cropper, a fine flavored berry. and firm 
enough for a good shipper. In plant growth it 
is very hardy, making plenty of long, coarse 
roots, and is one of the surest croprers on our 
list. We have never had any fruit for our own 
use from our propagating beds. as the cemand 
is still heavy for our plants. Plant Townsend 
late for a sure money maker. Good everywhere, 
North, South, East, West. Some our very best 
reports now come from the State of Florida, 
while others come from California, New Ham- 
pshire, the Central West, etc.
