BUSHEL BASKET— Extra'large, firm and sweet. 



BUSHEL BASKET (Per) 



This variety hails from New York State. Is a very large 

 showy berry, extra large plants and very productive. Recommended 

 for local market. Size medium to large, and too irregular in shape 

 for a good commercial variety, although it is firm enough to ship 

 well. Has a very slender long neck, leaving the Calyx when fully 

 ripe. 



CHESAPEAKE (Per) 



Chesapeake is about as well known at this time as any late berry 

 on the market, and needs no description. It is one of our highest 

 quality berries for either home use or market. Is a very profitable 

 variety when the soil suits it. Does not make very many plants on 

 ordinary soil. Needs good rich garden soil that does not dry out 

 quickly. Many of our customers never fail to buy Chesapeake of 

 us and always grow a good size crop of plants and seldom have very 

 many left. This season we have an exceptionally fine stock on new 

 land and price is low for this variety.
