^/f^/MJ^Seleciive Strain ARol 



AROMA 



One of the most popular late varieties on 

 our list. Aroma fruit is large, and has a bright red 

 attractive appearance, with extra good qualities. It 

 does well in practically all strawberry sections, and 

 on nearly all soils. A strong vigorous grower and very 

 productive. A yield of 10,000 quarts per acre is com- 

 mon when Townsend's selected Strain Aroma plants 

 are used. Owing to its excellent shipping qualities 

 Aroma is planted by the largest Associations in the 



Western and Southwestern States. We have been fur- 

 nishing our Selected Aroma plants to these Western 

 Associations for the past twenty years, coming back 

 for more regularly every year. They tell us it nays to 

 send East and get our hardy grown plants, instead of 

 planting their own grown plants. In tests made it has 

 been proven that fields grown from Townsend's Se- 

 lected Aroma plants produced fifty per cent more fruit 

 than fields set to native plants. These tests being 

 made in Kentucky, Tennessee, Indiana and Missouri. 

 We have an increase acreage this year to take care of 

 the growing demand for this variety. We are in a 

 position to fill large orders on short notice, and at our 

 new lower prices. 



AROMA PLANTS CAN BE SHIPPED ANY TIME 

 FROM NOVEMBER 1st to MAY 1st. 



GANDY 



One of the Best 

 Extra Late Varieties 



-^ 





CANDY (very late) Gandy originated in 

 New Jersey under the name of Gandy-Prize. 

 Has been grown in all parts of the Countn.' 

 for more than a quarter century. We have 

 tested out a good many late and extra late 

 varieties, but have failed to find any later 

 than the Gandy-Prize. and none with the 

 quality that this extra late variety has. We 

 have discarded such varieties as Orem. Mas- 

 cot, Pearl. New York and several others, as 

 we consider the Gandy the cream of them 

 all. The Gandy should always be grown on 

 a good rich damp soil, if best results are to 

 be had. A rich black loam is the ideal spot 

 for Gandy. We have the original old strain 

 of Gandy-Prize, and have built it ud by 

 proper selection and restriction of plants 

 until it is today about twice as productive as 

 when out on the market years ago. No gar- 

 den is complete without a few rows of Gandy 

 for home use. and Market Gardeners can 

 always depend on Gandy berries to bring a 

 good price. When ever we find a better extra 

 late berry, we will be found listing it. but 

 until we do. we shall list onlv Gandy.
