WORLD'S LARGEST GROWERS OF STRAWBERRY PLANTS

n 



MID-SEASON TO LATE FAVORITE 



For twenty-two years this dependable old timer has 

 been coming through with paying crops for growers 

 throughout the countr\. Ripening at the height of 

 the season just about the time of the last picking of 

 Premier and Dorsett, this variety comes upon the 

 market just when large fancy berries — like Big Joe — 

 can command top market prices. The size and ap- 

 petizing beauty of this variety and its appeal to the 

 public — an appeal measured in cash returns — has 

 brought Big joe nothing but continued praise. 



OUTSTANDING WITH GROWERS THE 

 NATION OVER BECAUSE OF; 



• SIZE — Large to very large berries. 



• COLOR — Rich, beautiful, double green cap. 



• QUALITY — None better — ranks with the best. Tops 

 for flavor and shipping. 



• PRODUCTIVENESS — Under favorable growing conditions, 

 cannot be equalled 



• VIGOR — Strong grower on most all types of soil. At its best on 

 clay, or well drained, springy loam soil.

THE LEADING WESTERN 

 MEDIUM EARLY VARIETY 



One of the leading varieties for Western states, thi 

 beautiful, glossy, dark red berry is deliciously sweet in 



flavor, and the ideal berry for canning and preserves. 

 We grow, annually, hundreds upon hundreds of thousands 

 of this popular western favorite, and aways find ourselves 

 sold out long before planting season is over. This in itself 

 is mute testimony to the virtue of Senator Dunlap. The 

 tremendous demand of our western trade speaks eloquently of 



the unequalled popularity enjoyed by this variety in that territory. 



Vigorous Grower — Dunlap's deep feeding habit makes it possible 

 for Dunlap to withstand considerable amount of dry weather; more 

 so than any other variety. This reason makes it especially suited t 



western climatic conditions. It usually makes an excellent fruit bed under 



favorable growing conditions. 



Fruit — A beautiful, glossy, bright red color with plenty of firmness for long 

 distance shipping. Splendid quality when grown in regions adapted to it.
