20 /. T. LOVETT CO. — BLA CKBERRJ ES. 



In offering this very promising Blackberry we give the description of the introducer: 



M Like many of our best fruits, it was an accidental seedling, and takes its name from the town clcse 

 by where it was found, in Preble Co., Ohio. It has been in cultivation for twelve years, and under careful 

 tests for four years at the different experiment stations. In every ease they report it high above all other 

 varieties, and all agree that it has never winter killed. 



"It is one of the few fruit*, which have no bad qualities. While its flavor is high above all others, it is 

 also productive, and will stand any climate. It is also remarkable for its keeping qualities. A box in 

 our office this summer was set aside for inspection, and ten days afterwards was found as gweet and rich 

 as the day the berries were picked. 



"Summing up its qualities it is the most pr o d u c tl ve,li ardiest (not being injured in Minnesota), 

 of extra-fine quality, sweetness, without core— a combination which has never before been 

 attained in a Blackberry." 



We have tested the fruit and found it in quality all that it is claimed to be; but have never as yet 

 fruited tt. Being brought forward by the originator of the Greenville strawberry and from what 

 we have heard of it from disinterested fruit growers residing at its place of origin, we believe it to be a 

 very superior variety. Price, ea., 40c; doz,, $3,00; lOO, $20.00.
