OrP m ^^ latest berry we have. Berries 

 I C I i I average large in size, good quality 

 and handsome appearance. They sell well be- 

 cause they come after other fancy late berries 

 are past their prime. Many growers want 

 Orem because it is so very late, but we feel 

 that William Belt, Aroma, Gandy and pos- 

 sibly Washington are easier to grow and are 

 almost as late. We have a small stock so order 

 if you want Orem. Price list, page 23. 



Pp'iwI Like Chesapeake, Pearl blooms late 

 I Cal I gj^j escapes frosts. The plants are 

 vigorous growers, verj' productive, and less 

 particular as to soil than Orem. The berries 

 are large, firm and attractive, somewhat re- 

 sembling Chesapeake. The season is very late 

 and Pearl should be valuable where it is im- 

 portant to extend the season of fancy berries.

True to Name For 40 Years 



Jefferson County, Ky., February 14th, 1931. — I have 

 been buying plants from you for 40 years, never bought 

 anywhere else and won't buy anywhere eUe, for I can- 

 not get as good plants as yours. Always true to name. 

 None better. Mr. W. H. Beeler. 



Very Late Varieties 

 Washington 



Called the honey sweet 

 strawberry by it's in- 

 troducer. Both last year and this year they 

 have made a vigorous, well set bed of plants 

 for us. The past season we had a short piece 

 of row left for fruiting, hardly enough to give 

 a fair trial to any variety, but we confess that 

 we were somewhat disappointed. The foliage 

 did not stand up during the fruiting season 

 and the berries were irregular in shape and 

 smaller than we expected. They were cer- 

 tainly excellent in quality. Perhaps like Wil- 

 liam Belt, Washington is more suited to 

 climatic conditions further north. Responsible 

 growers like the introducers of Washington 

 certainly must have some experience with big 

 crops of Honey Sweet strawberries which 

 yielded big profits from this variety or they 

 never would have given it the publicity and 

 the recommendations that they have. Our 

 stock of plants was obtained directly from the 

 introducers and they are nice, well rooted 

 stock. We feel that they are well worth trj'- 

 ing in spite of our rather unfavorable results 

 last spring at fruiting time. We remember for 

 instance that we looked over Chesapeake for 

 two seasons in a trial plot we were running 

 before we picked it out as being worthy of 

 introduction. If Washington can come along 

 like the Chesapeake it will not be long before 

 it will rank up ^^ith the leaders. We have the 

 plants, true to name, strong and well rooted. 

 Try some anyway. Price list, page 23.
