 berries you may gro^' I 



Edmund Wilson * "The Qiant strawberry*' 



This produces, we believe, the largest fruit of any variety ia existence. It is a most unusual berry, with so many 

 exceptional qualities and of such superb flavor, that every home garden should have it. Not so firm as some other va- 

 rieties and is of a deep maroon color, hence not recommended as a commercial variety. The plants are huge and vigor- 

 ous. The bluntly heart-shaped berries, which are freely produced, are of very dark color throughout the entire berry 

 and are simply immense. Hard as it may be to believe, it 

 is true, nevertheless, that we have seen many plants of 

 Edmund Wilson twelve inches and more in height, bear- 

 ing fruit that actually approached in size small apples, or 

 oranges. Ripens in midseason. Dozen, $1,50; 100, 

 $10.00. 



fVe Congratulate Mr, McClung ! 



OuvBR W. McClung, Brockton, Mass., recently sent us 

 the clipping as follows: 



Brockton, June — An exceptionally large strawberry 

 a? large as a child's fist, was grown by Oliver W. McClung 

 in his strawberry bed on Herman St., Montello. The 

 berry, an Edmund Wilson, weighed four ounces when 

 picked Mr, McClung has several varieties and says that 

 the robins, which he says have delicate palates, will eat 

 ndne except the Wilson. 



John H. Cook 



** The Variety for Everybody's Qarden ** 



In some respects this is the finest of all the wonderful 

 Van Fleet Hybrids. It is an enormous cropper among the 

 second early varieties. The berries are nearly round 

 (though somewhat irregular in shape), of exquisite qual- 

 ity, blood red in color and very firm. The plants are of 

 strong growth, with large spotless foliage. Valuable 

 alike for the home garden and tor market growing. In de- 

 licious flavor it closely approaches the wild strawberries. 

 Due to extraordinary demands our supply of this sort is 

 still very low (we did not offer it last spring) and we sug- 

 gest early orders to those who would have no other. 

 Dozen, $1.50; 100, $10.00.
