Eaton ^ mid-season variety. The fruit is medium 



to large in size, even and uniform, with prominent 



yellow seeds and deep green calyx, making a very attrac- 

 tive appearance. For canning and preserving it has no 

 superior. Produces a super-abundance of "berries. Pot-grown 

 Plants, $1.25 per dozen; $8.00 per 100. 



Gandv Late. One of our own introductions of many 

 — years ago, which has met with a surprising suc- 

 cess as a late berry. It is unsurpassed as a market sort, 

 since it combines firmness with attractiveness. Fruit is ex- 

 tremely large, of perfect shape, and very uniform. The 

 bright green caps add materially to its appeal. It succeeds 

 best on heavy soil. 



Glen IVIarv Midseason. An old standard variety which 



— is familiar to most Northern growers. On 



light, sandy soil Glen Mary is unequaled in productiveness, 

 and the fruit borne is large and firm. These berries are 

 of irregular shape, but their quality is among the best. Should 

 be planted near a good poUenizer such as Joe. 



Howard 17 Actually, Howard 17 and Premier are iden- 

 tical. Fruit is light red, large, and of excel- 

 lent quality. Early. 



Hundred Dollar 



Midseason. The light 

 scarlet berries of this va- 

 riety are produced in 

 great profusion, making 

 it a nation-wide success. 



Charlottesville, Va. 



Strawberries came yes- 

 terday, were set out that 

 same day, follow2d by a 

 fine rain and another 

 cloudy day. Looked well. 

 Am anticipating good re- 

 sults. My garden is my 

 diversion, and my straw- 

 berry bed my special pet. 

 Thank you for your sat- 

 isfactory filling of order.
