E. W. TowxsEis^D & Soxs' Strawherry Plants 



Champion K. 



— This variety hails from Tennessee; is said 

 to be the earliest berry to ripen there, being 

 ten days ahead of Klondyke. Fruit medium in size, firm and of 

 very good quality for so early a berry, riants make a strong mat- 

 ted row and should be restricted for best results. We recommend 

 it for trial where an extra early variety is wanted.

RED GOLD ^P^"") — ^° extra early va- 



riety, very productive of 



medium to large good quality fruit : a strong 

 healthy plant maker, and a variety that will 

 grow well on most any soil. We have watched 

 this variety very closely for two years, and 

 while we cannot agree with all the originator 

 says of it. we feel that it is a variety worthy 

 of a trial. Were it not for Premier and the 

 Fruitland, we would feel like recommending it 

 more strongly ; however it seems to be a favor- 

 ite with some of our good customers, and they 

 have asked us for the plants for the past 2 years. 



ST. LOUIS — ^^^ largest extra early 



berry grown. A strong hardy 



grower, and a valuable variety for home or dis- 

 tant market. Will grow on just ordinary soil 

 and produce big crops of extra large good qual- 

 ity berries. We recommend it for all sections 

 where such an early variety is wanted. The 

 crop can be harvested and gone before Premier 

 gets under way. Fruit will average larger than 

 Premier, about same shape, a little lighter in 

 color. 



FRUITLAND 



The New Promising Extra Early Straw^berry 



It gives us much pleasure to introduce to our friends and cus- 

 tomers such a wonderful variety. Originated in our own state 

 and in our own county. Has been grown here for several years 

 on many different soils, with perfect satisfaction, and is proving 

 the most valuable money making variety for our growers. And 

 we honestly believe that it is worthy of a trial by every one of 

 our friends and customers. 



Season — Very earliest to ripen. Fruit large to extra large. 



Firm enough to be classed as a good shipper. 



Color bright red with a heavy green calix. 



Flavor extra good, being mild and sweet. 



Berries round to top shape and uniform in size. 



Exceedingly productive. Makes just a nice fruiting bed of 

 medium to large stalky plants that are entirely free from rust. 



We recommend it to every one, for either home use or market. 



We have priced the Fruitland very reasonable for such a valu- 

 able new variety.

 Iiarge Extra Early. 



MR. ALFRED DOYLE, Congdon, Vt., writes August 15th: 

 Early in the season I purchased 1,000 Lucky Strike and 

 1,000 Mastodon plants from you. The Lucky Strike plants 

 did not look as good as the Mastodon, and I wrote you to 

 that effect. You sent me 1,000 more Lucky Strike at once. 

 W'e planted them all. Later I found that the first 1,000 

 Lucky Strike all lived, in fact the extras sent more than 

 made up any loss. Now we owe you for the last 1,000 

 plants, and are pleased to mail check for them. All the 

 3,000 doing extra well and we are well pleased with such 

 treatment and in the future you will get our orders.
