HARRISON'S NURSERIES, BERLIN, MD. 



SEN'ATOR DUNLAP— It gives me great satis- 

 faction to otler this new strawberry to my custom- 

 ers, for i beJieve it will bring pleasure and profit to, 

 those who grow it. It hns been well tested and has 

 made a good record in every instance. It was origi- 

 nated by Hey. J. R. Reasoner, of Illinois, and is now 

 first offered. It has fruited here and I fail to dis- 

 cover a single fault. It is a berry to grow for either 

 home use or market. My opinion is that the fortun- 

 ate ones will be those that get a start at the first 

 opportanity.— M. Crawfard.

BUSH CLUSTER— Remarkably vigorous, growth upright, similar to the old Kentucky, 

 which grew so tall that traveling Nursery Agents sold them for wonderful Bush Strawberries, 

 giving the impression of gathering off a bush. 



Bush Cluster has this hish growth with strong /--•^-^^^'--<'-v'~v-v'~^''^-~v-s--v-^<^-,.~^^^^'^^^ 



fruit stems tbat do not sprawl on the ground, and > 



so keeps perfectly clean, free of sand, grit and dirt. V 



The flowers are pistillate, and the yield excels the V 



well known Crescent, a berry that has records of > 



10.000 quarts per acre. Fruit borne, as the name > 



indicates, in great clusters, of large size; color ^ 



rather dark, good quality and firm, a good shipper, > 



with the great feature o'f keeper free from sand, 



dirt and grit, a great fault with all other sorts in 



wet weather, if they are not mulched. So raise clean berries by planting Bush Cluste". 



Numerous new strawberries brought out each season, but none have improved on laying irmc 



on ground, causriag rot. soft and sandy, 'dirty an I 

 gritty berries. Bush Cluster obviates all this ■ \' 

 keeping off the ground. The great clusters ( J 

 fruit, filling crates abundantly. Another fentn- -> 

 is the low price we are placins: it, have a very 

 limited stock of it. so let us book you order smi't 

 as possible; can hold them then' until ready to 

 plant. Bush Cluster ripens with Crescent. 



GANDY (Per)— One of the latest if not tho 

 latest in cultivation. This variety requires a 

 sjiecial soil adapted to it. It is particular'y 

 adapted to the Northern States, as in the South- 

 ern States it seems too dry. We say, on our sc I 

 it is a good plant maker. 'producing a beautifi I 

 plant of medium si/e. The fruit what we get i-? 

 of good size, but it is too shy a bearer here to 1 o 

 'if any profit. This variety'is well known ovt r 

 lie country, and where it succeeds well it is on • 

 f the best ]iaying sorts. We always grow a gncl 

 -rock of these to supply our customers, and'our 

 stock is genuine. 



TENNESSEE iPer^— A fine one to grow, 

 very desirable to plant with most pistillate vari- 

 eties in a general way. Comes up to all former 

 and surpassed all past records when given a 

 chance with other good varieties. The only o')- 

 jection to them is they are a little inclined to l o 

 solt if left too thick in the bed, but if they a^e 

 properly cared for and if not allowed to ripen toM 

 thoroughly in the patch there will be no coll- 

 plaint on this account. 



CRESCENT (Imp)— The poor, lazy man's 

 variety. Will produce more fruit under cat eless 

 cultivation than any other variety. Very pro- 

 ductive, bright red. medium size, known every- 

 where and needs no description. 



GANDY.
