First Quality Tlie P lants are verv large, strong upright growers with heal- 

 thy dark green foliage. In productiveness it ranks with 

 Sample and other well known varieties and the fruit is of the largest size, uni- 

 form in shape, colors well, firm enough for a commercial variety and of good 

 quality. 



Gandy 0ne of tne 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 

 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. 



Glen Mary 0ne ot tlie most reliable heavy croppers and a splendid grower 

 of large stocky plants. Fruit large, dark red, sometimes a little 

 rough and uneven, but not misshapen. A valuable variety for all soils and all 

 seasons. A long season fruiter. 



Gold Dollar Produces a heavy crop of large-sized, highly colored berries 

 that are perfect in shape. It has perfect blossoms, every one 

 of which matures a good berry. Ripens medium early. 



Gibson A vigorous grower with ample foliage and long roots, which enable 

 it to yield abundantly even in times of drouth. The fruit is large, 

 red to the center, with a fresh, green calyx, nearly round, and very firm, mak- 

 ing it a good ir-hipper. It is good for canning, or for the table. 



Hammer Mr - Baldwin of Michigan, of whom I purchased my plants, intro- 

 duced this two years ago. After fruiting it I find it the same as 

 Chesapeake. 



Haverland An °^ standard variety which seems to do well everywhere. It 

 never rusts or shows any blight. Has an imperfect blossom 

 but easy to fertilize; a good plant maker; enormously productive of long, 

 conical and even shape berries. If in doubt, plant Haverland. 



Heritage ( per -) A lon §" season variety — from quite early until quite late. 

 The berries are large, many of them very large, and the yield is 

 heavy. The quality is fair and the texture firm, but unfortunately many of the 

 berries are ridged and seamed and the color is not very bright; hence, it does 

 not present an attractive appearance. However, the plants are vigorous and 

 healthy, and yield so bountifully, it has much value. 



Helen Davis Noted for its productiveness and very long fruiting season; 

 yields enormous crops of very large berries, many of them 

 average as large as medium sized hen eggs; foliage tall and green; a good 

 plant maker. 



Hustler A native of Pennsylvania and a beauty. On one occasion, three 

 quarts of different varieties, all of which were very large and fancy, 

 were taken to the Reading Terminal Market in Philadelphia, and the different 

 dealers were asked which they preferred. Out of about fifteen all but one im- 

 mediately selected Hustler. The plants are strong and vigorous, without a 

 blemish on the luxuriant foliage. The berry is of large size, high quality and 

 of a beautiful, rich scarlet color. A good shipper and its fine quality and high 

 color will command the highest price on any market. 



Hundred Dollar (Per.) A very valuable and mid-season variety. The 

 introducer claims that "there is not another variety of 

 Strawberry that will outyield this giant or surpass it in quality" has to a large 

 degree been fulfilled. The plant is a strong vigorous grower, and among the 

 most prolific. The berries average very large indeed, the color is bright scar- 

 let and the quality mild, sweet and luscious. It is not very firm — not firm 

 enough for long shipment. There are indeed few varieties more valuable for 

 nearby markets or for the home garden.
