Dreer's Select List of Small Fruits. 



tW All goods are forwarded on receipt of order unless otherwise instructed, "^st| 



While the list of Small Fruits offered on this and the next page is short, yet it is very select, only the very finest sorts being 

 offered. We think this is better than offering a long list, many of which would be of doubtful value. 



We do not handle Fruit Trees, such as Apples, Pears, Cherries, etc. 



BLACKBERRIES. 



Blackberries respond generously to good treatment. They prefer a deep 

 soil, inclining to sand, but will grow and fruit almost anywhere. 



Early Harvest, Kittatinny, Rathbun, 



Erie, Snyder, Wilson Junior. 



Price: 50 cts. per doz ; $2.50 per 100; $20.00 per 1000. 



If wanted by mail, add 10 cts. per doz. for postage. 



FRENCH PRESERVING CURRANT 



"BAR-LE-DUC." 



Anyone fond of currant jam will appreciate this variety, if only for the 

 reason that the fruit is almost seedless, beside which it has a flavor not 

 approached by any other sort. For a number of years the entire stock was 

 under the control of a French company manufacturing the jam known as 

 Confiture de Bar-le-Duc, which readily sold at double the price of other 

 jams. Strong two-year-old plants, 25 cts. each; $2.50 per doz.
