DORSETT. Another early berry developed by the 

 U. S. Department of Agriculture. The berries are me- 

 dium light in color firm and of excellent flavor; in fact 

 Dorsett and Fairfax are considered the two best flavor- 

 ed of all the early varieties. They are both good sellers 

 bringing a premium over all other varieties in the 

 markets. They are new varieties, good healthy grow- 

 ers, extra quality fruit, heavy producers, good sellers. 

 and the demand for plants of these two varieties is 

 probably the heaviest of any new variety ever intro- 

 duced. A money maker for both grower and seller. 



FAIRFAX. What we say above about Dorsett 

 also applies to Fairfax with the difference in color of 

 the fruit; Dorsett is a brighter red than Fairfax but 

 seems to be equally as productive and as good grower. 

 There is no doubt of the demand for plants of these 

 two varieties and judging by past results the demand 

 is going to keep up on account of the profit in growing 

 the berries. Push Dorsett and Fairfax this season. 



GIBSON. Another old standard midseason variety. 

 Heavy fruiter of bright red berries -with an attractive 

 green cap; good for canning and preserving but does 

 not carry well to distant markets. 



GLEN MARY. In New York and the New Eng- 

 land this variety is verj' popular but in some other 

 sections it does not do well at all. The fruit is large, 

 and dark red in color, midseason, good grower. 



JOYCE. A new variety not yet well known but 

 where it has been tried seems to do very well. We 

 recommend it for an early midseason variety. Berries 

 are large, of good color and excellent flavor customers 

 who once try them want them again. Berries large. 



LUPTON. One would not likely grow this variety 

 if he was going to eat the fruit himself as it does not 

 begin to have the quality of some of the others but it 

 is very attractive and shows up so well when it arrives 

 on the market that it most always brings the top 

 prices and this is what the commercial grower is inter- 

 ested in. Good grower, late, attractive and sells well. 



PREMIER. For a good many years this has been 

 the best plant seller of them all, hence, has been a 

 profitable one for the berry grower. Early, almost frost 

 resistant, always producing good crops, attractive, good 

 grower, productive, medium to large berries, and if not 

 too wet at picking time a good shipper but if there is 

 a lack of sunshine the berries do not keep well. In 

 some sections they will not plant anything else for a 

 crop of early berries. Plant it; sell it. "U"e have the 

 nicest lot of plants of Premier this season that we 

 have ever grown and will appreciate your orders. 



\VM. BELT. This is one of the best flavored of 

 the late berries. The berries are irregular in shape, 

 fairly large, bright glossy red with a green cap. For 

 the home garden or local market Wm. Belt is still good. 



WY'ONA. This is the berry that will extend your 

 season a week after Chesapeake and Gandy are through. 

 Berries are large, bright red, firm and good shippers. 

 Good grower and productive. For an extra late berry 

 we recommend this one. Quality also is excellent. 



>L4ST0D0N (FaU or Everbearing). These berries 

 are now so generally known that it is hardy necessary 

 to say much about them. Mastodon is recognized as 

 being the best while Lucky Strike has its good points 

 also, one of which is its spicy flavor. The foliage of 

 Lucky Strike is not as healthy as is Mastodon but this 

 does not seem to hinder its fruiting qualities. The de- 

 mand for plants of these fallbearers seems to increase 

 each year. We have already sold more plants for this 

 spring delivery than we sold all told last season..
