ers call it Parsons' Beauty. Call it what you will it is well worth 

 growing. 



GLEN MARY. Very popular throughout the northern half of the 

 United States, and especially in Pennsylvania, New York and the New 

 England states. Firm enough for distant shipping. Of handsome 

 appearance and good quality. The fruit is of large size and dark red 

 in color with prominent seeds of bright yellow. 



HAVERLAND. It is a heavy yielder, and can be depended upon 

 to produce a crop every season — hot or cold, wet or dry. If you have 

 any berries at all, you are sure to have Haverland. It is one of the 

 toughest and strongest growers on the list. The berries are large to 

 very large, long-conical, firm and a good shipper. This is an imper- 

 fect flowered variety and should be planted with Big Joe, Gibson or 

 some other perfect flowered midseason variety and you will not be 

 disappointed in getting a good crop. 



KLONDYKE. One of the most heavily planted early berries in 

 the country today; found in nearly all the large growers fields. Not 

 as productive as some but what there are are beauties and good sellers. 



HOWARD 17. Like or so near like Premier that one description 

 will do for both. See description of Premier. 



PREMIER. This is undoubtedly the best early berry of them all 

 and a real money-maker for the market grower. Growers who have 

 tried all the leading sorts for the past twenty or more years claim 

 that they have never fruited a berry that will come anywhere near 

 making the money that Premier will. It does not seem to have any 

 weak points. The plants are strong, vigorous growers, very productive 

 of beautiful glossy, rich red berries with a bright green cap, which 

 adds much to their beauty. The berries are delicious in quality and 

 it is one of the best shipping berries. Whether you want a berry for 

 your home tabic, local market or for long distance shipping you cannot 

 afford to overlook Premier. It begins ripening with the early sorts 

 and lasts until most of the midseason sorts are through. There is a big 

 demand among the growers for Premier plants. Reports come in 

 from all sections of the country saying it can't be beat. 



LUPTON. This is a variety that has good looks and will arrive 

 on the distant markets looking almost as fresh as if it had just been 

 picked and you know any berry that has these two qualities is bound 

 to sell well. It does not have the quality of some of the other varie- 

 ties, being too dry, but the market grower is more concerned in what 

 they sell for than how they taste and they almost always bring the 

 top prices. The berries are large and have a nice bright green cap. 

 Ripens in midseason. Worth your giving it a trial. 



BIG LATE. This is a very good late berry. The plants make a 

 good growth and are about as free from disease as any variety. The 

 berries are large and uniform in shape with an attractive green cap. 

 The blossoms are imperfect and I suggest planting every third row 

 in your patch with Aroma or Big Joe. Always run short of thes^ 

 plants before the season is over,
