A/FORD 



hudi^-P/tod TOWNSEND VARIETY 



THAT has WITHSTOOD the TEST of YEARS! 



'ORD, like Premier, is frost resistant, 

 and has made hundreds of our cus- 

 tomers money when other late varieties were killed 

 by frosts. Ford is a very large, firm berry of good 

 quality, ranking with the very best in production. 

 Plant growth is vigorous, and in all our years of 

 growing this variety we have yet to see any signs 

 of rust or hear of a crop failure. When set in the 

 matted row system, keep Ford thinned out to 

 obtain best results. Ford is very popular with our 

 New England customers, especially in sections 

 where late frosts occur. 



"WHEN OTHERS FAIL — 



• HERE'S WHAT SATISFIED CUSTOMERS 

 SAY OF TOWNSEND'S FORD PLANTS 



DEAR SIRS: Penobscot County, Maine. 



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. GARLANDER 



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.

SENATOR DUNLAP (Dr. Burrill) 



j A MEDIUM EARLY 



THE leading variety of the Western 

 States, which we have specialized 

 in for years, has been proven by trial tests at 

 our Nurseries to be the same as Dr. Burrill, a 

 name later given to this fine berry. We prefer 

 to use its original name — Senator Dunlap. 

 Every year, we grow hundreds of thousands 

 of this variety to supply the great demand of 

 our Western Trade who know that Town- 

 send's Select Strain Senator Dunlap is un- 

 equalled in their 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 matures 

 practically a 100% crop of fancy fruit. 



• 'DUNLAP holds high honors in the West!
