ISLAND KING.— A seedling from Canada of the Lovett 

 — so popular in some sections as a market variety. It 

 ripens early and is an exceedingly vigorous grower, like 

 its parent. Berries medium to large, bright crimson 

 color, fine shape and firm. It has an unique and very 

 pleasant flavor — quite distinct from any other variety. 

 Doz., 25c; 100, 75c. 



PINEAPPLE. — A delicious variety, having the true sweet 

 strawberry flavor mingled with that of the Pineapple. It 

 is a beautiful, firm berry, too, of large size and a great 

 cropper — globular smooth surface and rich crimson color. 

 Its Pineapple character is so pronounced it is readily 

 detected in its odor as well as flavor. Valuable alike 

 for the home garden and market. Doz., 25c; 100, 75c; 

 1000, $5.00. 



ST. LOUIS. — A very valuable extra early variety. The 

 berries are conical, of good size (for an early sort), 

 bright flame color and of sweet luscious quality. An 

 extra vigorous clean grower and very prolific. It is also 

 exceptionally firm and the fruit is borne on long stems, 

 rendering picking an easy task. It gave us ripe berries 

 on May 22d, a week in advance of almost all other 

 varieties. Doz., 25c; 100, 60c; 10€0, $4.00. 



SENATOR DUNLAP.— For quarts, quarts, quarts, this 

 variety has indeed few equals. And the berries are at- 

 tractive and very firm. It has become exceedingly popu- 

 lar, particularly throughout the west and southwest. The 

 plant is not of great size, but exceedingly vigorous, bright 

 and clean and full of business. Senator Dunlap belongs 

 to the Warfield type, but is a better berry than Warfield 

 in every way; a better plant, a stronger grower and the 

 berries are larger and firmer. Ripens in midseason. 

 Doz., 25c; 100, 60c; 1000, $4.00. 



SILYEE COIN. — A variety that unites desirable prop- 

 erties to a remarkable degree, viz., beautiful color, 

 luscious quality, large size, uniformity of size, form and 

 color, pretty shape, firm texture, vigorous, healthy plant 

 and great productiveness. The shape is bluntly conical, 

 color brilliant flame red; ripens in midseason. Doz., 

 25c; 100, 75c; 1000, $5.00. 



STEVENS' LATE CHAMPION.— A descendant of the 

 grand old Gandy, similar in habit but more prolific by far. 

 It ripens late, and is similar to the Gandy in many re- 

 spects, except that it yields nearly or quite twice as many 

 quarts of berries upon a given space and the berries are 

 not so uniform in size and shape and by no means so 

 handsome. The most prolific and profitable of the late 

 varieties for market growing and a valuable sort for the 

 home garden. Doz., 25c; IOC, 75c; 1000, $5.00. 



SUPEBIOR (Early Improved) —A greatly improved 

 form of the old Stiperior, itself a most popular and 

 profitable variety in many sections. Improved Early 

 Superior is among the very earliest to ripen and con- 

 tinues in fruit until the close of the season and is a 

 sure cropper under all conditions and upon all soils. 

 Berries are of good size, bright red with seeds upon the 

 surface; remarkably firm, especially for an early variety, 

 and of excellent quality. Plant of strong growth with 

 dark green glossy leaves and very prolific. Doz., 25c; 

 100, $1.00. 



THREE W'S. — A Tennessee variety that has made many 

 friends in all parts of the country and is rapidly gaining 

 popularity. And well it may, for it is so sweet it can be 

 enjoyed without sugar, an abundant bearer of large, 

 beautiful berries for a very long season — from early mid- 

 season until the latest — and is remarkably firm. The 

 color is deep crimson throughout. The texture is so 

 meaty and the surface so strong it can be kept longer 

 after picked and shipped a greater distance in good con- 

 dition, than almost any other variety. Doz., 25c; 100, 

 75c; 1000, $5.00. 



Thomas Co., Ga., March 3, 1911. 

 The Strawberries I purchased from you some five or six 

 years ago and planted at Readfield, Maine, did well.

TJ. S. KING EDWARD.— Originated in Ohio and is de- 

 scribed by a grower in Massachusetts as follows: "It is 

 the rich man's berry, poor man's berry, lazy man's berry 

 and the market man's berry. If one wishes to grow the 

 largest number of quarts to the acre and has to sell at 

 low prices, this is the berry to grow every time. It is 

 not one of those large coarse, over large berries, but of 

 uniform size throughout the season; indeed, every berry 

 looks as though they were all run in the same mould. 

 They are a very attractive light scarlet color. * * * 

 The plant is a strong staminate variety and is just loaded 

 with fruit. Quarts, quarts, quarts; as thick as culti- 

 vated Cranberries. It is a mortgage lifter. Unfortun- 

 ately, there are two strawberries by this name. King 

 Edward. One originated in England and the best one in 

 America. You want the U. S. King Edward because it 

 is the best." Doz., 25c; 100, $1.00; 1000, $5.00. 



WILLIAM BELT.— Of all the Strawberries grown in the 

 United States, this variety doubtless excels in popularity 

 to-day. The plant is a vigorous, though not a rampant 

 grower, succeeds upon almost all soils, and invariably 

 yields very heavily and the berries are always of large 

 size and high quality. Its flesh is solid and meaty, deep 

 crimson in color, while the blossoms are large, with 

 abundance of pollen. It begins to ripen quite early and 

 continues until almost the close of the season; the last 

 berries being large, handsome and full flavored. Indeed, 

 it is a king among Strawberries, as it is firm and among 

 the largest — many of the berries being of great size and 

 gives large pickings for a longer period than almost 

 any other variety. Doz., 25c; 100, 75c; 1000, $5.00. 



STRAWBERRY-RASPBERRY 



Of herbaceous habit, with a mass of deep green foliage 

 and large, fragrant, pure white blossoms. It produces 

 ripe berries from early in July until frost. These are 

 sparkling crimson, of globular shape and often of great 

 size. In the fresh state the fruit lacks flavor; when 



cooked, however, it is excellent. Mixed with such varie- 

 ties as the Cardinal Raspberry and cooked, it is simply 

 delicious. Doz., $1.25; lOO, $6.00 By mail at dozen 

 rates if preferred. 



' Pr. Wii^liam Co., Va., Feb. 8, 1911. 



Twenty-three years ago I bought small fruits and straw- 

 berries from you and never have I had such perfect satis- 

 faction in plants. So please send me your catalog. The 

 first I bought from you are still bearing in the home 

 garden. E. May Dogan. 



" Davidson Co., Tenn., Sept. 28, 1911." 



The Strawberry and St. Regis Raspberry plants I got 

 from you last spring have grown so finely, despite the 

 severe drought of the summer, that I am induced to send 

 tlie enclosed order. W. L. Arnold. 



Fauquier Co., Va., Feb. 15, 1911. 

 I got some small fruit plants from you last spring 

 which have done very well in spite of the prolonged 

 drought of last summer. (Mrs.) W. W. Drake.
