BIG JOE 



CiG JOE (Midseason to Late) As the name 

 implies, is a berry of extra large size. Color 

 very bright with an attractive green cap. The 

 texture is one of the best, giving excellent 

 shipping results. For the home or commer- 

 cial purposes BIG JOE will be found giving 

 satisfaction. For over 20 years BIG 

 JOE has been the leading medium late 

 strawberry in the eastern half of the 

 country, and has produced record- 

 breaking crops wherever grown. In 

 size and productiveness BIG JOE is 

 second to but very few varieties, al- 

 ways bringing top price on the market. 

 It is a strong hearty plant grower and 

 free from disease, such as rust or leaf 

 spot, and a great money maker for 

 most growers. Likes a mellow springy 

 soil.

 GENTLEMEN :- 



I have been purchasing your Big Joe Plants for several 

 years. As I think it one of the best midseason to late va- 

 rieties. Our crop this year was extremely nice, picking over 

 7000 quarts, which we sold on the Washington Market for 

 as high as 30c a quart, netting us a good profit on the acre 

 that we picked from. WM. SLEIGHT. 



Howard's Supreme deserves the name Supreme 



Milo, Maine, Aug. 9th, 32. 

 DEAR SIR:- 



Let me tell you that the Howard's Supreme deserves the 

 name you have given it; as it is supreme over all that I 

 have ever grown. Large dejicious flavored berries and plenty 

 of them. ROSCOE C. WOODARD. 



Premier averages 8000 quarts to an acre 



Ghent, New York. 

 DEAR SIRS:- 



We have just finished our berry season and have had a 

 good crop from your plants. The 50,000 premier yielded this 

 year 8000 quarts to the acre. We consider your premier the 

 heaviest yielding strain on the market. DONALD COONS. 



WM. BELT 



WILLIAM BELT (Late) An old time quality berry, 

 the Wm. Belt is grown more largely in some states 

 than any other late variety, on account of its good 

 eating quality, as well as size and appearance, 

 which makes it a great favorite with both growers 

 and consumers. It is very productive, producing a 

 good crop of fancy berries on just ordinary garden 

 soil. It is one of the varieties that has come to 

 stay. While we have been selling Wm. Belt plants 

 for over 25 years, we have sold more of these plants 

 during the past three years than ever before. About 

 the only fault that can be placed against it, is the 



fact, that it is subject to rust on low springy soil. 

 In Pennsylvania and New York it stands at the 

 top of the list as the best money making late 

 variety. Market gardeners that cater to the fancy 

 trade should never leave out Wm. Belt. A profit 

 garden collection is one row Premier, one row of 

 Howard's Supreme and one of Wm. Belt. This 

 collection should please any one, and would 

 be hard to beat for any large planting, and we 

 would advise planting one row of each throughout 

 the patch. This selection fruits from early to 

 very late.

The Wm. Belt strawberry plants purchased 

 from you last Spring I must say were the nicest 

 plants that we ever planted. Nice roots and well 

 graded. It was the first time we ever planted 

 your plants, but it will not be the last.
