 largest and will always demand a high price when fancy stock is desired. The tlavor is dellc-

JESSIE. 



JESSIE (S)— This berry ooes not seem to be adapted to all kinds of soil's i's" aftprtfitJ^ 

 Sharp less type, being a seedling of that berry. Itisa splendid fertilizer, good qualify and' 

 gooc color, does extra well in some sections. Verj^ earlj' and is one of the largest berries on 

 the market. An old variety and needs no description. 



BRUNETTE— A perfect bloomer, and has shown up well the past season, it is solid, of 

 good color, and berries aOo\e medium size, round and almost invariably perfect, of a dark 

 mahogany color when fully ripe, a shade darker than Wartield and without anj' white tips,- 

 The plant is a strong grower, and the fruit is remarkable for its fine flavor, 



BEDAR WOOD— A perfect bloomer, and is a favorite in the "V^^estern States; For t-wo 

 seasons it has done well here; subject to rust some seasons. Give them a show and they will 

 give you a heavy crop of highly colored berries. Early and productive. The plant is a good 

 healthy grower and sends out a number of runners. 



MARSHALL (Per)— Its home is Massachusetts, and there it continues to be a favorite. 

 The plant is very large and makes runners only sparingly. It really i)roduces more bushels 

 than one would give It credit for in ioojiingat the plants, for it does not set many berries, 

 but nearly everyone is large and many are very large. They are of resrular form, dark 

 glossy red and very beautiful. The blossom is more tender to frost than some, and the plant 

 sometimes rusts. This is not a variety for a careless grower to plant, but every grower of 

 fine berries either for home use or market ought to give it a triai at least. 



LOVETT (Perl— The past season it gave a good crop of fruit and is recognized by a grea* 

 many growers as being one of the standard sorts. Plants are perfect beauties, healthy, no 

 rust, sends out plants profusely if allowed, of Crescent parentage. No person need hesit<ite 

 to plant this v^ariety for either home use or market, as it succeeds generally in any soil or 

 locality. It is one of the tough, hardy varieties that never disappoint the grower. It has a 

 perfect blossom and bears heavilj'. The fruit is firm, medium to large size, conical, and of 

 g-ood color and quality. Season medium.
