looking plants. We did not allow them to fruit any this season, as they were 

 planted very late. Yours truly, Storrs & Harrison Co. 



F. W. Poscharsky & Son. Respected friends. Your sample case of Princeton 

 Chief to hand. Please accept thanks. Though they had been on the road some 

 time, we could see that they were a good color and size, an attractive looking berry 

 and a firm good shipper, as berries, were still quite solid. Hoping your berry will 

 continue to fulfill your expectations, lam very truly, Isaac C. Rogers. 



F. W. Poscharsky. Dear Sir. Accept thanks for the beautiful strawberries re- 

 ceived this morning. They appear to have been picked when too ripe. They ar- 

 rived in fair condition. The berries are large and of good flavor and seem to be a 

 promising variety. With best wishes for your success, I remain very respectfully 

 yours, Chas. A. Green. 



GANDY BELLE. — Is a very large berry, perfect bloom and very productive. 



Berries dark red when ripe. The plant is a 

 very strong grower, always makes a heavy 

 bed of plants. Time of ripening, early ; 

 quality, very fine. Cleveland Nursery Co. 

 describes it as follows : It was sent to us 

 as the best berry ever sent out, being large, 

 early, firm, productive and healthy. We 

 find it is all that was claimed for it and this 

 year out of all our berries this was put 

 down as the best taking into consideration 

 its firmness, making it a good shipper. It 

 is a perfect beauty and this season as near 

 the Ideal strawberry as can be found or 

 that we find up to this time. 



I have great confidence in this berry and 

 believe it would pay our customers to invest 

 in a few plants. 



IOWA BEAUTY or CHILDS.— This has been well named, for beautiful it is in 

 form and color. Beauty, however, is not its only 

 merit, for it is of large size, exceedingly firm and 

 of the highest quality. The berries are regular in 

 form, of the shape shown in the cut, and ex- 

 ceptionally uniform in size. Color, brilliant 

 crimson and so glossy as to have the appearance 

 of having been varnished, with golden seeds laid 

 upon the surface. Plant of very vigorous though 

 not rampant growth, with a perfect blossom and 

 yielding abundantly. 



PRINCESS.— From what I have heard and 

 seen of this berry, I believe it to be one of the 

 Tery best market varieties ever introduced. It 

 was one of the few that yielded heavily on my 

 place last season. I have grown it two years and 

 find it to be a healthy, vigorous grower, making 

 an abundance of strong runners. While it has no 

 defects that I am aware of. its strong points are 

 its wonderful productiveness, large size and at- 

 tractive appearance. I shall plant largely of this variety and feel confident that no 

 one will go wrong in doing likewise.
