 conditions.

Gandy. — A strong, healthy plant, that makes but 

 fev^ runners, so that there is never any crowding of 

 plants. Perfect blossom ; moderately productive, 

 of large, perfectly formed berries ; ripens very late, 

 and on this account is one of the most valuable. 

 75 cts. per doz. ; §5.00 per 100 ; $40.00 per 1000. 



Haverland (P). — A lusty grower of the Crescent 

 type ; fruit and leaf stalks long, like Ohio and 

 Kentucky ; pistilate or imperfect blossom ; ripens 

 early. Enormously productive of medium to large, 

 long conical berries, of pale, scarlet color ; very 

 uniform in size and shape ; rather insipid in flavor, 

 but so extremely early, prolific, and showy, that 

 for medium and light soils it is one of the most 

 profitable. 



$1.00 per doz. ; $6.00 per 100 ; §50.00 per 1000. 

 Jessie. — A seedling from theSharpless ; perfect blos- 

 som ; fruit large to very large ; dark scarlet color ; 

 firm and solid and of excellent quality ; only 

 moderately productive. Of little value on light 

 soils, but on a rleep, rich loam, it furnishes superb 

 fancy berries either for the table or market. 

 75 cts. per doz. ; $5.00 per 100 ; $40.00 per 1000. 



Miami (P).— This new Strawberry leads all others 

 in vigor of growth, and will not heave by frost, or 

 suffer from drought, the roots being so thoroughly 

 matted and strong that they will withstand quite 

 severe weather. The fruit, which it bears in large 

 quantities, is very sweet, of a deep, glossy red 

 color, and of large size. 

 60 cts. per doz.; §4.00 per 100 ; $35.00 per 1000. 



Miner. — A reliable standard sort, for family use or 

 for market ; plant healthy and vigorous, produc- 

 tive of medium to large berries, somewhat resem- 

 bling the Downing, only darker in color ; larger, 

 with the surface of many of the berries corrugated ; 

 it is of pleasant sub-acid flavor. 

 60 cts. per doz. ; §4.00 per 100 ; §35.00 per 1000.

 early variety ; ripening several days before Cres- 

 cent Seedling ; moderately productive ; quality 

 good ; veiy attractive in color. 

 $1.00 per doz. ; $6.00 per 100 ; $50.00 per 1000. 



May King.— A healthy plant ; free runner, and 

 moderately productive of bright scarlet berries ; 

 perfect form and fine quality, and one of the earli- 

 est to ripen ; does not incline to run small after 

 the first picking, as many of the extra early va- 

 rieties do ; this should be in every collection. 

 60 cts. per doz. ; $4.00 per 100 ; §35.00 per 1000. 



Kentucky. — An old and well tried variety ; of fair 

 size and good flavor. A regular bearer ; desirable
