sil 
grower of 
and is 
Gibson—(Per) A 
large healthy vigorous 
good 
plants 
becoming a favorite with many large 
commercial growers in the north. Very 
productive and a good drouth resister. 
Fruit is of large size, dark red in color, 
firm, and of fine flavor. A strong pol- 
lenizer. 
Pocomoke—(Per) Same as Gibson. 
Glen Mary—(Per) Very popular in 
some sections of the country, especially 
in New England, New York and Penn- 
sylvania. Does not do well south of 
this as it is susceptible to rust. Plants 
are large upright growers with dark 
green foliage and will probably produce 
more quarts per acre than any other 
variety. Berries are large, deep red, 
firm, Juicy and of unusually good flavor. 
St. Martin—(Per) Originated in New 
York in 1909 by Mr. Louis Grafton, 
and has been thoroughly tested in that 
state, also in Massachusettes and 
proven its great worth. The introducer 
says: “The berries are uniformly large 
and ripen over a long season with no 
green knotty tips, are not bunchy nor 
misshapen and hold their size to the 
very last picking; color a rich deep red 
clear thru to the center, with a flavor 
that has been pronounced the equal of 
the Marshall. Very productive, firm 
and of beautiful appearance. For 7 
consecutive years it has won first prize 
at the Massachusetts Horticultural 
Society, in Boston, and I am now sure 
that St. Martin possesses more good 
qualities than any other strawberry I 
have ever seen.” 
Bubach—(Imp) This is an old stand- 
ard variety well known the country 
over. It has stood the test of time and 
is still grown by thousands of growers 
especially for home or nearby markets. 
Fruit is extra large, fairiy firm, and of 
good color and quality. Foliage very 
strong and of a dark green color.. 
Parsons Beauty—(Per) Healthy and 
vigorous and makes a good fruiting bed 
on most any soil. <A _ favorite with 
market gardeners and canners through- 
out this country. A heavy producer and 
sure cropper. Fruit large dark red in 
color and when fresh from the vines 
of the best eating quality. Will thrive 
and is popular nearly everywhere. Not 
a good variety for the south for ship- 
ment north. 
LATE VARIETIES 
Big Joe—(Per) See last page of 
cover. 
Gandy—(Per) The quality of the 
Gandy is known in every berry market 
throughout this country and _ usually 
brings top prices. Berries are borne on 
upright stems well above the leaves and 
dirt. Will not spoil if picking is neg- 
lected for a day or two after they are 
ripe. The Gandy is at home on black 
springy soil or hght clay loam but do 
not plant on high sandy soil. The 
plants are strong and vigorous, a per- 
fect bloomer but for best results should 
be set with Big Joe, Chesapeake or 
some other good perfect sort as it is de- 
ficient in pollen. 
Kellogg’s Big Late—(Imp) Kellogg’s 
big late is one of the best late pistillate 
varieties in size, quality and productive- 
ness and has been thoroughly tested. 
It is a good grower making enough 
plants for a good fruiting bed. Its 
foliage grows tall and spreading and 
can be easily told from any other var- 
iety. A deep rooter therefore a good 
drouth resister. A heavy producer of 
medium to large, glossy, bright red 
berries with an excellent flavor. A good 
shipper and keeper. The introducer 
says: “The color of the berries is a deep 
scarlet, seeds bright yellow, calyx bright 
green, and the fruit stems are large, 
making a combination which attracts 
the attention of the buyer, no matter 
how many other berries are offered in 
competition.
