HEN other late varieties are killed by 

 frost, Ford stands up and produces! 

 Like Premier, it is one of our most frost-resistant 

 varieties. Plant growth is vigorous, producing large, 

 firm berries of good quality. Results from Ford 

 have been so consistently excellent that in all our 

 experience we never heard of a case of rust or crop 

 failure. New Englanders, especially in sections 

 where late frost occurs, are particularly enthusias- 

 tic about this fine late variety. (When set in the 

 matted row system, keep Ford thinned out for 

 best results.

HERE'S WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS 

 THINK OF FORD— 



DEAR SIRS: Penobscot County. M 



We have been using your Ford plants for several years with 



good results. During the hard freeze 'Spring 1936) Ford came 



through with a good crop of fruit. 



R. B. GARLAXDER 



GENTLEMEN: Erie County. N. Y. 



I want to write you a line regarding the Ford purchased from 



you. They just did fine: I never saw such yields and large 



berries as they produced for me. I certainly am well pleased with 



this variety.

MtetitmSanAf variety 



SENATOR DUNLAP (or as others call 

 it — Dr. Burrill). one of the leading 

 varieties for western states, has long been one 01 

 our popular favorites. We grow, annually, hundreds 

 of thousands of this variety and always find our- 

 selves sold out before the planting season is over. 

 Mute testimony to the virtues of Senator Dunlap! 

 The tremendous demand of our western trade 

 speaks eloquently that Senator Dunlap is un- 

 equalled in that territory. 



Vigorous Grower — Dunlap has a deep feeding habit 

 and will withstand considerable amount of dry 

 weather; more so than any other variety. For this 

 reason it is well adapted to the Western States. It 

 usually makes a good fruit bed under unfavorable 

 growing conditions. 



Fruit is of good size and a beautiful bright red 

 color, with plenty of gloss and very firm. It is a 

 splendid shipper and of excellent quality when 

 grown in the regions adapted to it. 

 Productiveness — The Western Growers find Sen- 

 ator Dunlap to be an exceptionally heavy yielder on 

 their soils, and when properly fertilized* mat 

 practically a 100 "7 crop of fancy fruit. 



♦ DUNLAP holds high honors in the West!
