WM. BELT. 



WM. BELT (Per) — Midseason. This is 

 an old popular variety which many newer 

 varieties are classed with as to flavor. 

 For a home variety it has but few equals. 

 Plants always in great demand. 



NAXTICOKE (Per) — Midseason. This is 

 a new variety introduced by me in 1911. 

 It proved very popular the past season in 

 several sections. Makes a moderate sup- 

 ply of strong-, healthy plants, fruit large, 

 conical shaped with mild flavor. Color 

 bright red, fruiting season short. I pre- 

 dict that it will become a standard in a 

 few years or as soon as enough plants 

 can be grown to supply the growers. My 

 supply is limited this season. 



GOLDEX GATE (Per) — Midseason. In- 

 troduced by S. H. Warren, Esq., the grand 

 old strawberry man of Massachusetts. It 

 is a strong plant maker entirely free from 

 rust or any other disease. Seems to do 

 well on any soil; always bring forth a 

 large crop of well-matured and fancy 

 fruit. If you are undecided what to plant, 

 take this one. I guarantee them to please 

 you if it is a fancy berry you want. 



NEW YORK (Per)— Midseason to late. 

 This is one of the largest berries grown 

 and where a fancy berry for local mar- 

 ket is wanted it is a great favorite. Too 

 soft to ship well. 



' -HIGHLAND (Imp) — Midseason. High- 

 land was introduced by M. Crawford Co., 

 Ohio, as the most productive berry in ex- 

 istence. It has made great records in 

 nearly all experiment stations. It makes a 

 limited number of the strongest plants I 

 have ever seen grown and at fruiting sea- 

 son they are unable to hold their load 

 from the ground. Fruit large, well col- 

 ored and fine flavor. Is now a great fa- 

 vorite wherever grown. 



(^,-»^AROMA (Per) — Late. Not quite as late 

 as Gandy in the beginning, but will con- 

 tinue nearly as long. Bears an immense 

 crop of very fine fruit that will stand 

 shipping to distant markets. My orders 

 run in the millions for the Aroma plants 

 every season. Its greatest popularity is 

 in the West and Southwest, but it is a 

 good one everywhere. Write me for spe- 

 cial prices on large lots. 



-^PARSONS BEAUTY (Per) — Midseason. 

 This is a tremendously productive variety 

 of the Haverland type and will do well 

 for any local market, but not recom- 



NAXTICOKE. 



mended for distant markets unless grown 

 in the North. It is a general favorite in 

 the northern states, being one of their 

 heaviest croppers and is one of my best 

 sellers; plants strong and vigorous, free 

 from rust, and berries average large and 

 flavor fine. I have known them to pick 

 12,000 quarts to the acre. 



. PAUL JONES (Imp) — Midseason. In the 

 Paul Jones we have another very popular 

 variety. The originator claims it to be 

 the most productive variety grown. I 

 have only fruited it one season and find 

 it to be very productive and quality fine, 

 size medium to large, of good, firm qual- 

 ity. It is a general favorite in the state 

 of Delaware, which speaks much for it. I 

 am well pleased with the Paul Jones here 

 on the grounds. I have a very fine stock 

 of plants this season and hope to see more 

 of its behavior, as the demand the past 

 season was so great I sold almost out be- 

 fore I knew it. 



GRAY'S DOLLAR (Per)— Late. Of the 

 Gandy type. Plants large and vigorous 

 and excellent grower, free from rust. Has 

 long, vigorous roots and stands the 

 drouth well. Will outpick the Gandy and 

 fruit is of better appearance. It is being 

 grown very largely by commercial grow- 

 ers in many sections; originated in Indi- 

 ana. 



/ HERITAGE (Per) — Medium. Originated 

 in New Jersey. Fruit large, uniform in 

 shape, splendid flavor, colors all over a 

 bright red. Has a beautiful calyx, firm 

 enough for a long distance market. 



Mr. Geo. C. Wessels, Parksley, Va., April 

 30. 1910, writes us as follows: 



Dear Sirs: — I received my plants O. K. 

 and they were fine plants, the finest I ever 

 received. I would like to get up there 

 and look at your berries when they are 

 in fruit. 



Plant City. Fla.. March 14. 1912. 

 Dear Sir: — Strawberry plants received 

 the 12th in good condition. 



Respectfully, 



J. Z. KNIGHT.
