HARRISON'S NURSBRIEiS, BERUN, MD. 



EXCEI.SIOK (Per)— The originator says 



We are proud In being- able to offer to our patrons this extra early large, firm, high 

 coiored, well-sDaped berry. It is immensely productive and will take the place of Michers 

 Early wherever tried. It was originated in the State of ArKansas, where all good things come 



frtjm. We strongly 

 urge all our patrons 

 to get a s-tart of 

 them, for they are 

 great early berries 

 gTnmimriwi'c-iL-' i II ■ lam ^ ^ for profit. It is a

Plant resembles 

 Hoffman, but larger 

 and more robust. 



The earliest vari- 

 ety grown with us 

 the past season, 

 fully one" week 

 earlier tha^i Mitch- 

 el's Early, which it 

 resembles very 

 much ; still it is a 

 distinct variety. and 

 is also very much 

 firmer than the 

 MitchePs. We have 

 had numerous re- 

 ports of this variety 

 and everyone, 

 where earliness is 

 desired, speaks ot it 

 as a most favorable 

 variety. There has 

 been a desire for 



years for a good variety that will ripen with Hoffman and as productive as Michel's. This is as 

 early as Hoffman, and will grow three quarts of berries to the Hoffman's one per acre in the 

 same sod. We recommend this, wherever earliness is desired, to be the best early berry now 

 grown. The first ripe berries with us were found May 10th. We paid $80 for the first thousand 

 plants, but have never regretted it. 



tADY JANE (Per)— Our latest pet is the Lady 

 Jane. Here we have a grand berry, largest size, firm, 

 high flavor and color, in fact, the handsomest berry 

 we have ever grown. It is a seedling of the Haver- 

 land crossed by the Hoffman. Thrifty, light colored 

 plant growth. Demands rich soil and will stand 

 drought and heat with the best of them. In fact Ave 

 think it is the best big berry for Southern shippers 

 to follow Excelsior. You will not regret planting it 

 anywhere.— Originator. For a newberr' we put it 

 out very low. 



CLYDE (Per)— At" the first few pickings last 

 year this variety was all that one could ask for; the 

 berries were large and abundant, hanging in such 

 clusters that every one wanted to pick the Clyde. 

 Following this was a fcAV days of rain and hot suns, 

 and they wilted very fast compared with other vari- 

 eties. The only objection there seemed to be was the 

 lack ot foliage to cover the fruit, and for this reason 

 the frui+ was hurt quite severely by the hotsuns. It 

 will have to have extra cultivation and fertilizer to 

 enable the plant to make foliage enough to cover the 

 fruit m a dry season. 



COB DEN QUEEN (Imp)— Size large, beautiful, 

 well shaped crimson berries of the medium early 

 varieties, being five days earlier than the Crescent. 

 Flavor among the most delicious. It has been thor- 

 oughly tested and has proven to be a good one for 

 market. Abundant and healthy foliage. 



WARFIELD (Imp)-To get the best fruit of 

 thi" variety it must be thinned at least one-half of 

 the runners that are made in order to give it suffi- 

 cient room and sunlight. II neglected and left too 

 thick the berries are sure to be small, but in pro- 

 ductiveness it is almost unsurpassed. The berry is 

 dark red color, firm and of medium size.
