LARGE YIELD — FANCY FRUIT 

 FINE FLAVOR 



Big Joe is a heavy producer of large, brilliant 

 red berries of extra fine flavor and' is firm 

 enough to withstand long shipments. The 

 plants are good growers and heavy yielders. 

 This variety succeeds on all types of soil but 

 does extra well with good care and fertility. Be 

 sure to include Big Joe in your planting this 

 spring. Our big yield strain insures big crops. 



CATS KILL 



Midseason 



BLAKEMORE 



No Strawberry has become so popular so 

 quickly as Blakemore. It is the most popular 

 variety in all America. Ripens several days be- 

 fore Premier and is equally dependoble, pro- 

 ducing big crops every year. The plant is 

 healthy and stands up well during drought. The 

 berries are large, firm, an attractive red and 

 good quality. Fine for canning and preserving 

 because it holds its color and shape so well. 



DORSETT, Early 



Large Fruit — Vigorous Grower — Heavy Crops 



Dorsett berries average large size, consider- 

 ably larger than the Premier; in fact, their size 

 is comparative with Chesapeake, which is the 

 outstanding late berry. Plant growth is exceed- 

 ingly vigorous, being far more vigorous than 

 most other varieties. Dorsett yields large crops 

 of fancy, light red berries. 



A midseason berry that will produce the 

 largest crops of bigger berries of any midseason 

 variety. Catskill is entirely satisfactory as to 

 firmness, quality, color and attractiveness, sea- 

 son of ripening and climatic adaptation. The 

 highest record of marketable berries was made 

 with this variety. In shipping respects it ranks 

 with Chesapeake and Lupton. It is rated equally 

 as attrocfive as Fairfax or Dorsett. The berries 

 are borne on rather long fruiting stems which 

 makes it easier to get at in picking. 



Midseason. highly productive over a long 

 fruiting season that begins soon after Premier. 

 Uniformly large berries of excellent quality for 

 fresh eating,- canning, freezing or shipping. 

 Tangy. rich, sweet flavor. Very vigorous and 

 easy to grow. 



FAIRLAND 



Ripens a few days after Premier, vigorous 

 grower, firm, large berry. A cross between Fair- 

 fax and Aberdeen. Rich, sweet flavor. Highly 

 resistant to diseases and easy to grow. 



FAIRFAX 



Ripens about same time as Premier, large, 

 extra firm, sweet berry. Turns dark after being 

 picked but still retains flavor. 



PREMIER Early Berries 



Too well known to need much description 

 The standard early berry by which all other va- 

 rieties are judged. Holds all records for big 

 crops and big profits. Premier has filled more 

 crates, made more dollars, and brought joy to 

 more Strawberry growers than any other variety 

 ever grown. 



Adapted to All Soils — Heavy Yielder. It 



thrives on most any type of soil and is a ram- 

 f>ant plant maker. Premier fruits extra early 

 when berries are selling at a high price. It is a 

 big yielder of big, bright red berries of fine 

 flavor. For home gardens, local markets, or 

 for shipping moderate distances it has out- 

 classed all the other varieties.
