Fendall. 



For fancy 

 berries and 

 lots of them this is a va- 

 riety that will give great 

 satisfaction. The berries 

 are large and fine-flavored ; 

 rich in color, smooth and 

 glossy, and described 

 by some as being "per- 

 fectly beautiful." It hat 

 long stems and large 

 caps. We have fruited 

 the Fendall several times 

 and find it to be a strong 

 grower, with luxuriant, 

 light green foliage. For 

 the last two years we have 

 not been able to supply 

 the demand. Fendall 

 makes a handsome show 

 in the market, with its 

 large caps and brilliant 

 berries, and always brings 

 fancy prices. 



First- Quality. The flavor makes you want more t>erries 



We have fruited this excellent 

 variety now several times and 



First-Quality. 



find it to be all that the introducer claims. We con- 

 sider it one of the promising new varieties of recent 

 introduction. We especially recommend this in 

 the northern and New England states, and we feel 

 sure you will make no mistake in planting it. The 

 berries are large and pointed, somewhat like the 

 Haverland. It is a great cropper, fairly uniform in 

 shape and color; there is something about the flavor 

 that causes you to want more. The plants are 

 vigorous and healthy, and it is one of the best growers 

 on the farm. It seems to us that this 

 variety has been somewhat over- 

 looked, as the demand for 

 it does not seem to be so 

 strong as its merits deserve. 

 Try it. 



Gandy. 



WE SEND NO CULES 



Yours received. No 

 use of mentioning the 

 excluding of culls, as 

 your plants are nil 

 No. I and. with 

 one exception, the 

 only good plants I 

 have ever had. —

Fendall. A fancy fruit that pleases the grower and the buyer 



Probably no higher compliment could 

 be paid to this variety than the fact 

 that all other late varieties are compared by it. For 

 best results it should be planted in black, swampy 

 land, or if this is not possible in springy land with 

 some clay in its makeup, but never plant Gandy 

 on dry, sandy land. It is a reliable old standby and 

 a great favorite in the market. Gandy makes a 

 vigorous, healthy growth, and if planted in soil as 

 recommended above, it will produce a good crop of 

 large, uniform, highly colored, firm berries that 

 will bring top prices in any market. See illustration, 

 page 9. 



niFN MARY This variety originated 

 ULCn irmiM. in Pennsylvania and was 

 introduced by our Mr. W. F. Allen twenty 

 years ago; since then it has become very 

 popular throughout New 

 England and the northern 

 half of the United States. 

 Many growers consider it the 

 most profitable of all berries 

 to grow, on account of its 

 great productiveness. Some 

 of our customers often get as 

 many as 10,000 quarts 

 to the acre from this 

 variety. The berry is 

 firm enough for distant 

 shipment. It is 

 of handsome ap- 

 pearance and 

 good quality; for 

 this reason it is 

 popular both as 

 a fancy, local 

 market berry 

 and as a shipper. 

 It always brings 

 the best prices. 

 Fruit is of large 

 size, dark red, 

 with prominent 

 seeds of bright 

 yellow. The 

 meat is rich and 

 juicy and of such 

 high flavor that 

 when once eaten 

 more is wanted.
