Currants 



One yeur plants mailed postpaid at dozen rates, if desired. If by mail at 100 rates, add oOc. p^^r 100. 



Two year plants are too large to mail. 



A cool, moist location Ls best for this fruit, and for this reason it succeeds admirably when planted by a 

 stone wall or fence, being benefited by partial shade. Plant in rows four feet apart, and the plants three 

 feet apart in the rows. Keep the ground mellow and free of weeds and grass, asing fertilizer copiously. 

 Mulching is necessary- for the best returns. So soon as the leaves turn yellow and begin to fall, with a 

 pruning knife remove" all the old wood and cut back the young shoots a third of their length, cutting to the 

 ground enough of these to admit aii/ and Hght into the bush freely.

RFECTION 



A distinct and very 

 superior variety; pro- 

 ducing large, long 

 clusters of large, 

 bright sparkling red 

 berries of mild, su- 

 perior quality in great 

 profusion. Awarded 

 many prizes and med- 

 als. The editor of the 

 old reliable "Amer- 

 ican Agriculturist" 

 says: "Tn reality it is 

 all its name indicates. 

 It is simply the most 

 beautiful and perfect 

 Currant thus far in- 

 troduced." 



It has proved an 

 unqualified success at 

 ^Monmouth and I am 

 receiving flattering re- 

 ports of it from all 

 parts of the country. 

 I do not hesitate to 

 recommend it as the 

 finest and best Cur- 

 rant upon the market. 

 I think so well of it 

 that I have several 

 thousand Perfection 

 upon my fruit farm, 

 the fruit from which 

 sold in open market 

 the season just past 

 at two to three cents 

 per quart more than the finest red Currants from 

 the Hudson River district. I may add it is the 

 only Currant I have ever been able to fruit with 

 profit at Monmouth, and it is an unqualified suc- 

 cess. 



One vear. extra fine plants, each. 10c. ; dozen.

Two years, each, 15c.: dozen, 81.50: 100, 810.00. 



Westchesteb Co., X. Y., March 18. 1912. 

 I enclose my order for ''spring and summer" 

 goods — the largest I have ever given you or any 

 one else. It may be interesting for you to know, 

 by way of illustrating the possibilities of the use 

 of a small corner of a city lot, that in the spring 

 of 1910 I ordered 100 strawberry plants of you 

 and set them out on a small patch, twenty feet 

 square. Last season, 1911, I picked over 70 quarts 

 of luscious berries from those plants — berries 

 which were far superior to any to be had on the 

 market, save possibly at a few of the exclusive 

 fruiterers in New York City.
