Truth — Our Motto In Business 



We would not misrepresent for 

 the sake of making a sale. If a 

 variety has shortcomings, or its 

 usefulness is circumscribed by limi- 

 tations of soil or season, you will 

 find the descriptions in this catalog 

 to say so frankly and freely. The 

 adherence to this principle has 

 won thousands of loyal customers. 



MARSHALL.— This is a real "quality" berry and 

 those who have made its acquaintance will be satisfied 

 with no other. Like many of our best sorts, it should 

 be grown on good loamy fertile soil to produce best 

 results. It is a very attractive large berry (see illus- 

 tration below), of rich quality and meaty texture, ripen- 

 ing in midseason. One of the best varieties for forcing 

 under glass in winter. 



McKINLEY.— The high quality of its fruit raised 

 this variety to an unrivalled position for the home 

 garden before the appearance of the Van Fleet Hybrids. 

 It is pre-eminently a variety for the home garden, be- 

 ing too tender in texture to endure shipment. The 

 berries are large, handsome and freely produced on 

 strong-growing plants (see illustration alongside). 

 Ripens in midseason. 



NEW YORK. — Another "quality" berry ripening in 

 midseason. It is in many respects very much like Mar- 

 shall but appears to give better results under less exact- 

 ing soil conditions than does that popular old sort. 



NICK OHMER. — This splendid old variety, because 

 of its vigor of growth and high quality, is still in great 

 demand; we regard it as among the very best of the 

 midseason to late sorts. Produces extra large fruit of 

 superlative quality. Good for forcing under glass in 

 winter. 



PEARL. — Ripens almost two weeks after the other 

 late varieties have finished bearing, and is very valu- 

 able on account of this late-bearing quality. It. like 

 Bushel Basket and Edmund Wilson, belongs to the 

 giant class (see illustration below). Immense in plant, 

 immense in size of fruit, immense in every way. Dozen, 

 $1.50; 100, $8.00. 



PREMIER. — One of the very best of the extra early 

 varieties; in fact, we consider it excelled by no early 

 variety excepting our own Early Jersey Giant. It suc- 

 ceeds on almost all sorts of well drained soils and 

 throughout a large section of the country. Produces in 

 vast quantities berries of good size, attractive appear- 

 ance and excellent quality (illustrated below). 



ROYAL SOVEREIGN.— Aluch sought after by pri- 

 vate gardeners for forcing under glass in the winter 

 time. It is an English variety and of wonderfully high 

 quality though we do not feel that we can recommend 

 it for growing out of doors. Ripens from early to mid- 

 season. The true variety is indeed scarce. Dozen, $2.00; 

 100, $12.00.
