Cooper. 

 A Fancy Market Berry. 



DR. BURRILL 



— The Million Dollar 

 Stiinvberry of the Dun- 

 lap family. Dr. Bun-ill is to the North and West 

 ■w-lijit the Klondyke is to the South and East. 

 Will grow on most any soil under most any 

 conditions. Really the lazy man's berry. Com- 

 mercial growers in many parts of the country 

 plant more largely to Dr. Burrill than any other 

 variety. On account of its long-rooted habit it 

 does better in the very dry sections than any 

 other variety in a dry season. Fruit medium 

 in size, rich dark to very dark red when fully 

 ripe; quality excellent, and very productive. 



KLONDYKE (P^"")- — improved strain. 



Same as the old standard 



except improved thru plant selection. One of 

 the most valual)le varieties (or the South and 

 Southwestern States. To\',iisends strain of 

 K-londyke plants has been known for over 20 

 years as the best money could buy. And will 

 prodHce from two to three times as much fruit 

 as the common grown Southern Klondyke. Many 

 of the largest Associations send to us every year 

 for Good Klondyke plants. 



Best Money Makers 



Medium Early Varieties 



(^iQQPf^J^ — Where soil and conditions 



are right, Cooper is a favorite 



fancy market variety. We have seen crops of 

 these berries that would average larger than 

 any other variety, often 27 beiTies filling a 

 quart. Cooper is exceedingly productive; good 

 firm quality, mild and sweet. Has a rough ap- 

 pearance. Berries not as uniform in shape as 

 many growers wish, but where an extra large 

 irregular shaped berry is wanted Cooper will fill 

 the bill. Plants extra large and hold fruit well 

 off the ground. Every season finds us sold out 

 on Cooper plants. 



p'ofQn — One of the heaviest producers. 



Large, uniform in size and color, rich 



dark red clear thro\igh. Its flavor and quality 

 is the very best, and is considered by most 

 growers who have grown it to be almost perfect. 

 Its firmness makes it a favorite with distant 

 shippers. More Eaton should be grown in all 

 producing sections.

Senator Dunlap 



— Is favorably known 

 throughout the coun- 

 variety that has made 

 growers. Until the in- 



try as a medium early 



profits for thousands of 



troduction of Premier, Dunlap was the standard 



variety in most sections. Fruits large, crops of 



medium sized good quality berries. Suitable for 



home use or market. Sure to please. 



The Aberdeen 



Its Productiveness, Attractive Color, and Good Quality Are Its Important 



Qualifications 



The Aberdeen has been grown in New Jersey, Pennsylvania and New York states for several 

 years and has proven almost a gold mine on account of its great productiveness, attractive color 

 and good (luality. It is moderately firm and therefore cannot be recommended for Soiithern states 

 where the haul is a gi-eat distance. But for all Eastern and Northern growers we recommend it 

 as a most worthy variety. 



What the New Jersey Agricultural Experiment 

 Station Has to Say About the Aberdeen: 



"Sept. 18, 1929. E. W. Townsend & Sons. — 

 I would call the ripening date of the Aberdeen 

 early mid-season. The first picking can be made 

 about five days after the first picking of Pre- 

 mier. However it picks over somewhat a longer 

 season. The Aberdeen looked to me to be as 

 promising the season of 1929 as it was in prev- 

 ious seasons. Its Productiveness, Attractive 

 Color and Good Quality are important qualifica- 

 tions. ( Signed ) 



J, Harold Clark, Assistant Poraologist." 



We secured our stock of plants direct from the 

 originator, Mr. J. E. Kuhns of New Jersey, one 

 ef the oldest and largest growers of this variet.y. 



We have grown an exceptionally fine crop of 

 plants that are absolutely true to name and 

 without a blemish. We are sure that you will 

 be more than pleased with the Aberdeen. (See 

 illustration in natural colors on the inside front 

 cover page.)
