Time of Shipment. Our pot-grown Strawberry Plants are usually ready for shipment the latter part of July or early August 

 and can be supplied as late as October. It is better, howe\er, to secure the plants in August or September, as earlier plantings develop 

 larger and more vigorous plants and produce a greater crop of fruit next j'ear.

 for boxes or packing. If shipment by Parcel Post is desired, add 10 per cent, to price of plants to cover cost of special packing and postage. 



The Berries You Grow in Your Own Garden .a.re Alw.ws Better th.\n Any You Can Buy. 



Big Joe (Midseason). A most valuable sort ripening just after the 

 Chesapeake, equals it in size, firmness and yield, surpasses it in 

 color and flavor, succeeds under all soil conditions. It is a mid- 

 season variety and very productive of very large, beautiful 

 berries, with large, bright green calj-x, and is one of the best in 

 flavor. Well nigh ideal both for the home garden and market. 

 Sl.OO per doz.; S7.00 per 100; S60.00 per 1000. 



Brandywine {Mid-season to late). All growers are unanimous in 

 their praise of this magnificent berrj', and it is considered one 

 of the finest mid-season to late-fruiting sorts. We do not know 

 that it has a single defect, plants of extra strong constitution 

 and growth doing well everywhere. The fruit is extra large, 

 heart-shaped, color bright, rich red, and the flavor leaves 

 nothing to be desired. A grand variety for preserving, retaining 

 its flavor in a wonderful degree when canned. It always pro- 

 duces satisfactory crops, and will always be found in the front 

 rank of high-grade berries. $1.00 per doz.; $7.00 per 100; 

 S60.00 per 1000. 



Chesapeake (Late). A most reliable berry, which is giving 

 perfect satisfaction in all parts of the country. It is not a 

 variety that sets an immense quantity of fruit, but every 

 blossom makes a berry, every berry being well developed and 

 strictly fancy, of good color without any green tips and of the 

 highest quality. A berry that we can recommend for all soils 

 and conditions. $1.25 per doz.; $8.00 per 100; $70.00 per 1000. 



Early Jersey Giant (Early). This has been well called "The 

 early Strawberry without a fault," it is one of the late Dr. Van 

 Fleet's hybrids, the result of crossing some of the finest European 

 varieties with the best American sorts, resulting in a variety 

 which ripens with the earliest. Berries very large, brilliant 

 scarlet crimson, conical, with pointed tip, colors all over at once, 

 has a delightful aroma and mild wild strawberry flavor. The 

 plant is a strong grower and heavj' yielder. $1.25 per doz.; 

 $8.00 per 100; $70.00 per 1000. 



Candy's Prize {Late). The standard late variety, which has 

 held its own for many years, and by which every new late 

 berry is judged. It is a strong healthy grower, but needs a rich 

 soil for its perfect development. The berries are borne on long, 

 strong stalks, well above the ground, a variety that is hard to 

 beat. $1.00 per doz.; $7.00 per 100; $60.00 per 1000. 



Glen Mary {Mid-season to late). In the Middle and Northern 

 States, where Glen Mary is at its best, probably no variety 

 will produce more quarts per acre. The berries are large, of 

 handsome appearance and good quality. The blossoms are 

 about half perfect, but carry enough pollen for their own fruit. 

 However, we believe the size and quantity of the berries can be 

 increased by planting with it some strong pollenizcr like Big Joe. 

 $1.00 per doz.; $7.00 per 100; $60.00 per 1000. 



Lupton {Late). This berry has no equal for solidity, and because 

 of its extraordinary substance is an ideal berry for preserving. 

 Add to this the fact that it is very prolific, producing lavish 

 quantities of large brilliant red, smooth-surfaced, glossy berries 

 of high flavor. $1.00 per doz.; $7.00 per 100; $60.00 per 1000.
