FAIRFAX 



Unexcelled Quality and Flavor 



Fairfax was originated by tlie U. S. Department of Agriculture and offered to the 

 public in 1933 and since then it has become known in nearly every market as the berry 

 "with the flavor" and this is one of the reasons why customers call for it again and again, 

 for they know it has the finest flavor of any berry they can buy. 



Fairfax ripens about the same season as Dorsett and Premier and like these varieties 

 ripen thru a long season. The berries are of large size, being larger than any of the early 

 varieties, and under favorable conditions remain large to the end of the season. The 

 berries are conical in shape and very regular, being most uniform of any variety ; color 

 a beautiful rich red when first picked, but soon turn a dark red but still maintain their 

 firmness and will keep some days longer yet before decaying as many customers have 

 learned, in fact Fairfax is one of our very best shippers and will stand shipping long 

 distances as well as Blakemore, Lupton or Gandy. 



The plants of Fairfax are vigorous growers, are much larger than Dorsett and will not 

 make as many plants and for this reason are just a little higher in price. The dark 

 green foliage seems to radiate vigor, and remains healthy clear thru to the end of the 

 fruiting season and is one reason why they can produce such an enormous crop of fruit 

 and while probably will not set as many berries as Premier will produce as many quarts 

 owing to the size of the fruit. Fairfax is not only a great long distance shipper but is 

 unexcelled for the home garden, local markets and roadside stands ; in fact, wherever size 

 and flavor count it will pay you to grow Fairfax and no grower whether large or small 

 should be without it. I have a good supply of nice plants that will help you to make your 

 planting a success and priced to save you money. 



DORSETT 



Heavy Yields - Large Size - Better Quality - Greater Profits 



Dorsett was originated by the U. S. Department of Agriculture and altho was not in- 

 troduced until 1933 has made such wonderful strides in this short time that it is now con- 

 sidered by many growers the "'leading'' variety in the strawberrj^ family. To attain this 

 leadership in such a short time it must have exceptional merit and prove on a dollar and 

 cent basis that it will make gTowers more money than any other variety. That is just 

 what Dorsett has proven many times and in many sections that it will do. The combin- 

 ation at the top of this page is the reason. 



Dorsett is a heavy yielding variety producing large crops of fanc^ fruit and the ber- 

 ries, with the exception of Fairfax, have the finest dessert flavor of any variety ever in- 

 troduced ; in size they rank with the largest being exceeded only by Fairfax, are bright 

 red in color : and like Blakemore, hold their bright red color some time after being picked, 

 making them have that fresh, just picked appearance, which with their bright green cap 

 makes a ' beautiful appearance in the package and makes Dorsett especially in demand by 

 buyers and when tasted the flavor will make them buy again and again. The season of 

 ripening is usually as early as Premier but a much larger early crop is produced which 

 means you get a larger number of quarts the first picking or two when they bring the 

 highest prices. In plant growth Dorsett is a vigorous grower making a heavy matted 

 row which may need thinning for best results. The vigorous dark green foliage, like 

 Fairfax, seems to radiate vigor and they keep this healthy condition until the fruiting 

 season is entirely over. Dorsett, while not as firm as Fairfax and Blakemore, is a fine 

 shipping variety and is equally good for home garden, local market or roadside stands. 

 Commercial growers have found "'Dorsett pays'' and are planting heavy to it. You, too, 

 will find Dorsett a "'Profit Bringer" and recommend planting some Dorsett this year. 



PRYOR'S plants are grown especially for plants on high land and after they are 

 planted are given the best of care with all the plant food they can use making strong 

 vigorous plants — storing up that pep and vitality that will make them grow and produce 

 results when planted in your soil.
