Campbell's Early. M. Some points of special merit in Campbell's Early are 

 a very strong, vigorous, hardy vine, with thick, heavy, mildew-resisting £o- 

 (« liage, and bearing abundant clusters; very large, compact and handsome. 

 Berries large, often an inch or more in diameter; black, with light purple bloom; 

 skin thin, but very tenacious; flesh firm but tender, parting easily from its few and small seeds. 

 Flavor rich, sweet, slightly vinous, free from foxiness, and as the seeds part readily, they need 

 never be swallowed . Its season is very early, and in keeping qualities remarkable having hung 

 upon the vines sound and perfect for six weeks of more after ripening with no tendency to 

 fall off or shell from the stem. Price, 2-year vines, 40c. each, S4.00 per doz.

 ness, vigor, good size and excellent quality. Bunch medium to large, shouldered; berries me- 

 dium, greenish-white; skin thin, tough, pulp tender, sweet, with few seeds; of excellent quality,

CURRANTS. 



Perfection. Awarded the Barry Gold Medal by the Western N. Y. Horticul- 

 tural Society because of its superior merit; the first fruit to achieve this dis- 

 tinction. 



It is a beautiful Currant; the color is a particularly bright red. Berry and 

 bunch are larger than Fay's Prolific and the size is well maintained to the end 

 of the bunch. A valuable feature is its long stem from the bush to the first 

 berry, making it easy to pick without crushing the fruit. It is a great bearer, 

 superior to any other large sort. Rich, mild, sub-acid, plenty of pulp with 

 few seeds. Less acid and of better quality than any other large current in 

 cultivation. Price, 30c. each, $3.00 per doz., $20.00 per 100.

 means the most profitable currant to grow. It sells for half more and pro- 

 duces almost double the fruit of any other variety. The fruit is larf e, fire-red, 

 and has large, fine clusters. It is a good grower, an early bearer, enormously 

 productive, and holds its leaf till the snow flies. Price, 2-year plants, l£c.
