OF CHOICE STRAWBERRY PLANTS. 
IS 
it is almost identical, equally as firm and has the advantage of being a far bet- 
ter grower and a great deal more productive. In short it is a decided improve- 
ment on that grand old variety. My stock of this variety is strictly pure and as 
fine as can be produced. Last year the demand for Brandywine was so 
great that it was next to impossible to find a plant for sale after the middle of 
April . My stock was probably the largest in existance at that time but every 
plant was sold by April loth and most everybody else was sold out before this 
date. This ye;:r my stock of Brandywine is about three fourths of a million, and 
while I hope to be able to fill all orders I am not expecting to have any left. 
MARSHALL— This has made a splendid growth cousidering the dry weath- 
er. The foliage is very bluff and 
healthy looking and was among the 
most attractive in a field of over sixty 
kinds. As I have not yet fruited the 
Marshall I will give Mr. Crawfo.d's de- 
scription. 
"'I have fruited the Marshall twice 
and am much pleased with it. I know 
of no other early berry that is as large 
and fine looking. The plant is fault- 
less. The blossom is perfect and it is a 
good bearer. It is refreshing to see such 
large healthy plants. The fruit is im- 
mense, of regular roundish form, dark 
glossy red, and of better quality than 
is often found in so large berries." 
My stock of this variety is large and 
vpry fine, and those who order Marshall 
of me will get plants that will be sure 
to please them. 
MORGAN'S FAVORITE — This 
comes highly recommended from New 
York state. I have only fruited a very few plants. The berries are large in size 
irregular in shape and of fine quality. I don't think it will stand shipping, it 
may.be valuable for local market where quality is demanded. The plants are 
as large as Marshall, vigorous and healthy. 
SUNNYSIDE— Originated in Mass. Introduced two years ago with the fol- 
lowing description: 
u lst. — It is the latest, ripens here in Massachussetts about July 1st. 2d. — 
It is very vigorous and never rusts. 3d. — It is immensely productive. 4th. — It 
is a most excellent shipper. 5th. — It is by all odds the handsomest berry ever ex- 
hibited and would be selected among a hundred varieties as the most showy ber- 
ry. : ' It was the most productive variety grown at the New York Experiment 
Station in 1893. 
It fruited here last season and is very late and quite productive. It makes a 
good growth of healthy vines, nearly free from rust.
