DORSETT. Another early berry developed by the U. S.j 

 Department of Agriculture. The berries are medium to ligh 

 in color firm and of excellent flavor; in fact Dorsett and' 

 Fairfax are considered the two best flaovered of all the early 

 varieties. They are both good sellers bringing a premium 

 over all varieties in the markets. They are new varieties, 

 good healthy growers, extra quality fruit, heavy producers, 

 good sellers, and the demand for plants of these two varie- 

 ties is probably the heaviest of any new variety ever intro- 

 duced. Push Dorsett and Fairfax this season. 



FAIRFAX. What we say about Dorsett also applies to 

 Fairfax with the difference in the color of the fruit; Dorsett 

 is a brighter red than Fairfax but seems to be equally as 

 productive and as good grower. Push Fairfax and Dorsett. 



GIBSON. Another old standard midseason variety. 

 Heavy fruiter of bright red berries with an atractive green 

 cap; good for canning and preserving but does not carry 

 well to distant markets. 



HOWARD 17. This is so near like Premier that it is 

 hardly possible to tell any difference although some growers 

 think it better. 



LUPTON. One would not likely grow this variety if he 

 was going to eat the fruit himeslf as it does not begin to 

 have the quality of some of the others but it is very attract- 

 ive and shows up so well when it arrives that it most al- 

 ways brings the top prices and this is what the commercial 

 grower is interested 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, pro- 

 ductive, medium to large berries, and if not to wet at pick- 

 ing 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. We have the nicest lot of Premier plants this 

 season that we have ever grown and will appreciate your 

 orders. 



SENATOR DUNLAP. The old reliable midseason vari- 

 ety. Still considered very highly in some sections, especi- 

 ally for canning. Our plants are nice this season. 



WM. 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. 



FALL BEARERS. These berries are now so generally 

 known that it is hardly necessary to say much about them. 

 Mastodon is recognized as being the best for commercial 

 purposes. Champion or Progressive is the old standard 

 one and probabaly the best flavored. Gem is one of the 

 newest and very highly recommended by the introducers 

 but does not seem to be anything extra here in the east. 

 We suggest you make your reservations early as the dry 

 weather has curtailed the crop this season.
