Picking the Winners 



Early The finest early varieties we have seen in our 51 years of 



experience in growing strawberries. Under favorable 

 conditions they are at least the equal of Premier in pro- 

 ductiveness and superior in average size, appearance, 

 firmness and quality of the berries. Plant them for home 

 use and for profit. 



Dorsett 

 Fairfax 



P 



I The grand old variety with which all other early 



anc " berries are compared. As a sure cropper under all 



a conditions Premier is still the best of all and there 



r ^ lTft I ^ r are Pl aces where Dorsett and Fairfax will not replace 



I ^ 1 1 1 I ^ I it to any extent. BLAKEMOKE (light) is a fine early 



shipping berry grown mostly from Maryland South although with proper spac- 

 ing it may do well farther north. BELLMAR (dark) is also a fine solid berry, 

 finding many friends both North and South. SOUTHLAND is a fine home garden 

 local market berry for the South. 



Midseason ^^ e ^ est a ^ aroun( ^ niidseason berry except Catskill. A 



money maker for most growers, fine quality for the home 



B B ■ garden. Brings top prices on the market. Where Big 



a g 1 f% & Joe is not at its best try Catskill. 



3 Joe 



and 



Catskill 



Catskill is more vigorous than Big Joe, equal in quality, 

 and average size, superior in productiveness, firmness, 

 and hardiness of bloom. Looks like the best of the mid- 

 season berries. ABERDEEN is very productive and 

 popular with some growers in the North. It does best 



on heavy soils. Berries are large, light and attractive but quite soft. Keep 



picked closely, market quickly after picking. 



I a ^ e The Aristocrat of strawberries. Where it 



grows well no late variety will surpass it 

 as a profit maker. Equally good for ship- 

 ping, local market, or home garden. If your 

 soil does not suit Chesapeake, plant LUP- 



TON for a large late shipping berry, WM. BELT for high quality, GANDY (with 



spacing) for extreme lateness. 



Chesapeake 



Everbearing This variety is the most popularand widely grown 



M" of all the Everbearers. Excellent for the home 



g garden and most generally used when planting 



8 S t O O O H f or profit. CHAMPION is fine quality and one 



of the best in the South. The new GEM and 

 WAYZATA and GREEN MOUNTAIN are all showing up well and may soon 

 largely replace Mastodon in popular favor. Their strong points are vigor, produc- 

 tiveness, appearance and quality.
