All prices refer to sturdy pot-grown plarits. 



CALIFORNIA. Out of 30,000 hybrids the originator chose 

 84 as being worth while for use in conducting further experi- 

 ments. He finally fixed the characteristics of seven of these 

 84 in a sufficient degree to consider them unique. The 

 choicest of these he named California, in honor of his state. 

 California is a heavy producer of large berries of the finest 

 flavor and aroma. The plants are very hardy, free from all 

 diseases, altogether a distinctly worth while acquisition. 

 $1.25 p;r doz., .fS.OO per 100. 



CHESAPEAKE 



A splendid variety, but to be at its best it should be grown 

 on rich, loamy soil and given high culture. The berries are 

 uniform and beautiful, with smooth, even surface and promi- 

 nent seeds. The color is bright, lively crimson and the pre- 

 vailing form is heart-shaped. Flesh firm, quality very good. 

 Plants vigorous and healthy with large foliage. They mul- 

 tiply sparingly. Midseason until quite late. If one has rich 

 soil and will cultivate it freely, it is an excellent kind. $1.25 

 per doz., $8.00 per 100. 



CHARLES I. Extra early, being one of the very first 

 varieties to mature its fruit. A big cropper of evenly shaped, 

 well-colored berries. Because of its extra heavy root system, 

 will withstand drought better than almost any other variety. 

 $1.25 per doz., $8.00 per 100. 



COLLINS. A long season berry that is at its best when 

 most midsummer varieties stop bearing and before the late 

 varieties reach the height of their bearing season. Fine for 

 the man who desires a constant supply of high-class berries. 

 Equally useful as a shipper. $1.25 per doz., $8.00 per 100.

This nursery deals in the best to be planted in fruits and 

 flowers. A constant weeding out process maintains varieties 

 we offer at the highest standards. Only p ants holding promise 

 of fair returns are ofTered, because we know that crops of 

 plentiful quality will win us loyal cus- 

 tomers and constant friends.
