KLONDYKE. ^ >er ^ ect blossom; vigorous grower; good crop of fruit; early; medium to large in size; 



- well-colored, with no green tips, and very firm. One of the best shippers, commands 



top price in market and frequently brings a premium over other varieties, owing in a great measure to 

 its unusual firm- 

 ness. The Klon- 

 dyke is being 

 planted more and 

 more largely in 

 the semi-tropical 

 sections; it is also 

 planted in all sec- 

 tions of the coun- 

 try- I think I 

 would be safe in 

 saying that there 

 are a thousand 

 acres of Klondyke 

 growing for mar- 

 ket within fifteen 

 miles of Salisbury. 

 If you want a 

 good berry that 

 will bring a top 

 price in market 

 and ship any- 



Klondyke. If you want a good berry, plant Klondyke 



where, do not hesitate to plant Klondyke. 20 cts. per doz., 30 cts. for 25, 40 cts. for 50, 60 cts. for 

 100, $1 for 250, $1.60 for 500, $3 per 1,000. 



WJI DWOOD ^ valuable addition to the list of home berries. It is one of the rankest growers 

 * on the farm, having almost covered the ground the past summer, notwithstanding 

 that through the principal growing season we were practically without rain. The berry is of medium 

 size, of a bright scarlet color and has that much-admired flavor of a wild Strawberry. It is very produc- 

 tive and a berry that I am sure will please every one who wants early berries for any other purpose than 

 long shipment. It is too soft for long shipment, but first early for the home table or home market. This 

 new Strawberry comes to us from Iowa. The name of this berry was suggested by its very delicious wild 

 Strawberry flavor and the luxuriant growth of the plants. Your garden will not be complete without a 

 few plants of this excellent variety. 25 cts. per doz., 40 cts. for 25, 60 cts. for 50, $1 per 100, $1.75 for 250, 

 $3 for 500, $6 per 1 ,000. 



July. This variety was planted by me for the 

 first time last spring, and as yet I have not had an 

 opportunity to fruit it. It has made an excellent 

 growth of very strong, large plants, however, and 

 the originator describes it thus: "Berries medium 

 in size, good color and firm; very productive and 

 later than Gandy, in fact, it is the latest berry we 

 have ever grown and one we are well pleased with 

 in every respect." Blossoms imperfect. 



King Edward. This variety originated with 

 D. J. Miller, of Ohio. The fruit is very large, good 

 quality and moderately firm. The plants are 

 strong growers, with large foliage, and bear 

 freely. Mr. Miller says the King Edward 

 has been well tested from 

 the Atlantic to the Pacific, 

 and has made a great record 

 and, all things con- 

 sidered, is the great- 

 est berry he has 

 ever grown. Mr. 

 Miller is very en- 

 thusiastic over his 

 new berry and 

 expects it to meet 

 with great success. 

 Here it is very fine, 

 large and pro- 

 ductive. 



Jessie. We usually keep a few plants of Jessie 

 in stock for our customers who refuse to give up 

 this variety. Where the soil conditions are favor- 

 able, the Jessie is an exceedingly fancy berry for 

 either home use or market. Tt is very choice as to 

 the soil in which it 

 grows, however, and 

 for this reason many 

 people have not seen 1 



it at its best. Where I ?*±i.'x/*> 



it succeeds it is fine. 



Wild wood. Has the much-admired flavor of the wild berry 



The Strawberry 

 plants I got of you 

 this spring are doing 

 fine.— J. C. Sain,
