FORD— A heavy producer of fine fruit. 



FORD. A perfect flowering variety ripening 

 about the same time as Chesapeake. Very pro- 

 ductive and a good plant maker. Berries large 

 and attractive. A very popular berry where it 

 has been fruited. 



GANDY. One of the universal favorites, and 

 as a "money-maker" hard to beat. A good 

 grower with tall, healthy foliage, and produces 

 large, dark crimson berries that, when fully ripe, 

 are of excellent quality. It is a splendid berry 

 and always brings fancy prices. A free plant 

 maker and a good grower, while its extra firmness 

 makes it keep on the vines longer than almost any 

 I know. Late. If you grow late strawberries 

 you need Gandy. 



GIBSON. Berries are large and regular in 

 shape, holding their size well to the end of the 

 season. Color rich red. Flavor is neither sweet 

 nor sour, but just right for canning. Extremely 

 productive; in fact, we know of no variety that 

 will produce more quarts of berries per acre 

 than the Gibson. It makes a strong, vigorous 

 plant that withstands adverse conditions admir- 

 ably. We recommend it and know you will not 

 make any mistake in planting Gibson. 



GL-EN MARY. Probably no variety of straw- 

 berries will produce more quarts per acre than 

 Glen Mary. It is very popular throughout the 

 northern half of the United States, and espe- 

 cially in Pennsylvania. New York and New Eng- 

 land. Firm enough for distant shipping. It is 

 of handsome appearance and good qualitv. The 

 fruit is of large size and dark red in color with 

 prominent seeds of bright vellow. The meat is 

 so rich and juicy and of such high flavor that, 

 when once eaten, more is wanted 



HAVERL,AND. Exceedingly productive. Fruit 

 large and flne. One of the most popular of the 

 well-tested varieties. It will stand more frost than 

 most any other variety, often bearing large crops 

 when others are killed. We can ahvays depend 

 on a large crop. Few varieties will produce more 

 fruit per acre or sell for more money. The demand 

 for plants is always great. 



KI.OXDYKE. One of the most heavily planted 

 early berries in the country today; found in nearlv 

 all the large growers' fields. I believe this is 

 sufficient recommendation for any berry. 



HOWARD No. 17. A new variety resembling 

 Premier very much from Connecticut. Described 

 by a reliable Connecticut grower as follows : '"The 

 earliest fancy variety that I have ever seen. The 

 first fruit to ripen is fully as large as Chesa- 

 peake, fully as firm and the quality fully as good. 

 It is of the same cone shape and the color much 

 the same, possibly not quite so dark, but glossy 

 and handsome. Will yield three times as much 

 fruit as Chesapeake and is on the job a week 

 before Chesapeake begins to ripen. So great is 

 my faith in this variety that more than one-half 

 of all I set the coming spring will be Howard 

 No. 17. This variety has come in competition 

 with hundreds of competitors on the grounds of 

 the Connecticut Agricultural College and van- 

 quished them all. not only for one or two years, 

 mind you, but for ten years." 



GIBSON— A wonderful heavy cropper
