FAIRFAX. What we scry about Dorsett also applies to Fairfax -with 

 the difference in color of the fruit; Dorsett being a lighter red 

 than Fairfax; Fairfax is two or three days later than Dorsett and 

 is also a little larger; equally as productive and as good grower. 

 You will make no mistake in planting either or both of these 

 whether you want them for home use or market. 



FROSTPROOF. If you hove been having trouble with frost killing 

 your blooms we suggest you try this. So frost resistant it was 

 named Frostproof. Berries large, good flavor, midseason. 



GANDY. Fifty-one years old and still good as an extra late 

 berry if given a good fertile moist soil. The berries are strictly 

 fancy, large, good quality, bright red with a large green cap. A 

 good keeper but not as productive as some . 



GIBSON. This is another old standard variety that has proven it- 

 self many times over. A very vigorous grower and makes a 

 fancy green cap. Does not ship well but fine for local market or 

 home use and excellent for preserving and canning. 



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 v/hen it arrives on the market that it most always brings the 

 top prices and that is what the commercial grower is interested 

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



PATHFINDER. An introduction of the New Jersey Agricultural Ex- 

 periment Station. Was formerly known as No. 35. A cross be- 

 tween Howard 17 and Aberdeen. Has been tested throughout 

 the Eastern and Northwest sections of the country and results 

 were generally favorable especially in sections where Premier 

 is adaptable. Berries cone-shaped, colors a bright uniform red 

 all over, large and a heavy cropper, quality good, ripens a little 

 later than Premier. 



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 proof, always producing good urops, 

 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 

 growers will not plant anything else for a crop of early berries. 



SENATOR DUNLAP. Excellent for canning and very delicious for 

 table use. Blossoms are perfect and its long blooming season 

 makes it good for planting with imperfect flowering sorts. 



WM. BELT. This is one of the best flavored of the old standard 

 varieties. The berries are irregular in shape, fairly large, bright 

 glossy red with a bright green cap. Wm. Belt is desirable for 

 home garden and local market as it is preeminently a quality 

 berry. Midseason to late. 



WYONA. 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 etxra late berry we recommend this one. 



Strawberries All Summer And Fall 



There should always be some of these varieties in the home 

 garden. They will start fruiting 90 days after the plants are set 

 and produce all through the summer and fall till there is a heavy 

 frost. Any family that enjoys delicious strawberries (and we be- 

 lieve most everyone does) should not be without at least one of 

 the everbearing vcirieties. Just think, you can have delicious 

 strawberry shortcake, strawberries and cream and all other straw- 

 berry desserts all through the summer and fall, with very little ex- 

 pense, for if given proper care each plant will often produce a 

 quart or more of delicious berries during their long fruiting season. 

 You can have plenty for your own use and then sell enough to pay 

 your expenses from just a small patch. Your neighbors will be 

 glad to buy them at good prices. Mastodon is recognized as be- 

 ing the best for commercial purposes as well as for home use. 

 Champion or Progressive is the old standard one and probably 

 the best flavored, not having as much acid they can be eaten 

 lay those who find the other varieties have too much acid for 

 them. Gem is a newer one and is steadily coming to the front. 

 Maybe not any better than Mastodon but some say it is. Lucky 

 Strike is preferred by some and we find it the most spicy flavored 

 of them all. Wayzata is a new one of very excellent flavor but it 

 seems almost impossible to get them to make runners and new 

 plants. After getting the plants you can get large quantities of 

 berries as they naturally grow in the "hill system." They are all 

 good and from the above you may be able to decide the one that 

 will be the best for you to grow. You should try them at least.
