stMiulard varictios and is

 markets but it is an imi)erfect variety and has to be 

 fruited and many growers discontinued it for this 

 rcnison. Fruit medium to larjic conieal. brij^ht red 

 in color, firm and of fair (piality. Plants ai-e sood 

 growers and very ])roductive. 



GIBSON 



GIBSOX 



lias been introduced under several 

 names and if that is any indication 

 of its worth should be a valuable variety and is an 

 old favorite with j^rowers in many sections. The 

 plants are healthy and vigorous making good fruit- 

 ing beds on almost any kind of soil. Yery produc- 

 tive, the plants being simi)ly loaded with berries 

 Fruit medium to large size, dark red in color and of 

 Hue flavor, (iibson is not tirm enough for distant 

 shipping but is very pop\ilar for canning and f(n' lo- 

 cal or nearby n)arkets. 



^g]^^j)p^£^^ A strong grower of healthy and vigorous plants that make a fine 

 matted row on most any soil with plenty of dark green foliage 

 that shows no sign of rust or disease. Aberdeen originated in New Jersey and is very 

 popular in some sections there where the introducer says it is taking the place of Premier 

 and Big Joe, also in some sections of Pennsylvania the growers say it does better than 

 Premier but under conditions I have fruited it consider Premier much the best, and, while 

 it will compare verj^ favorably with Premier, or any of the other varieties, in yield the 

 berries are soft and have to be kept picked up closely and marketed quickly. Plants are 

 immensely productive of large bright red berries that have a double green calyx that 

 makes them show up well in the package. Not firm enough for shipping to distant mar- 

 kets but profitable for markets within hauling distance on account of its productiveness 

 and ability to fruit under adverse conditions. 



DUJ^L^p An old-time favorite throughout the northern half of the country and 

 still grown by many of its old friends, although it is being gradually 

 replaced by newer varieties, especially Premier, which is better in most every way. Dun- 

 lap will grow and succeed under nearly all conditions and with any kind of treatment, 

 A sure cropper and heavy yielder. Berries are medium to large, firm and attractive, 

 juicy and of delicious flavor. 



PARSONS BEAUTY originated near 



Parsonsburg, this 

 county, but it is better known now as Gibson as the two 

 are the same. For description see Gibson 



PLANTS 

 ARE FRESH DUG 



My plants are not dug any old time, when it is 

 most convenient, and then put in storage or packed 

 away waiting for your order, as I have no storage 

 house, but are dug AFTER your order is received 

 and then packed in light ventilated crates with plenty 

 of damp moss, and shipped promptly, which insures 

 them reaching you in first class condition and should 

 go right on growing.
