Satisfaction, (Perfect.)—Not fruited here. We give the originator’s and the 
Rural New Yorker’s description: © 
The Rural New Yorker says; ‘‘The Satisfaction has tall plants that cover 
the berries well. Berries average large, heart-shaped and always regular, flesh 
red, quite firm, season medium. It is worth trying.”’ 
The originator says: ‘‘This is a seedling of Wilson and a reproduction of that 
grand old variety, having a large full perfect blossom, and the plant in every way 
closely resembles its parent, except that itis a much more vigorous grower and 
makes plants more freely, with a clean healthy foliage, having no rust or weak- 
ness of any kind, berries large to very large, heart shaped and always of the same 
shape. We have never seen an ill:shaped berry on this variety in the four seasons 
we fruited it It holds fruit up w:11 on strong trusses. Color scarlet, always 
coloring all over at the same time. Flesh red, quality good, being less acid than 
its parent. It is very productive, at least equal to Haverland in this respect. 
Berries firm and will carry well to a distant market. Season medium. ’’—Origi-

Haverland.—One of the very best this season. A native of Ohio and does 
not lose any of its value in going in other states. This is one of the most pro- 
ductive varieties on the market at this time. The plant is all that can be asked 
for. It isa fine shipper, very large and willcommand a good price on the mar- 
ket for years to come.. No one should miss this in a collection. We plant 
largely of this for fruit and never get deceived. It is one of the most profitable 
varieties in cultivation. We have grown this largely for plants that we may 
accommodate our customers and have now put the price extremely low. We 
can supply them by the 100,000 and guarantee our stock pure. Imperfect ‘blos-

Bartons Eclipse—This is one of the good standard varieties that has been 
everlooked. It is one of the very best for field crops, a splendid grower and a 
heavy yielder of large sized and good flavored berries. It is as large as Bu- 
bach, equally as productive and a much better ‘shipper. We plant this for 
profit and have never been deceived. You can depend on it every time. 
Warfield,—A fine grower and a sure bearer; luxuriant in any soil. The fruit 
is dark red. This hardy imperfect blooming variety is among the most produc- 
tive, fruit medium size, conical. very firm, anda gocd shipper: In size, color, 
form and shipping qualities it resenbles Wilson. It has been tried North, 
East, South and West and it succeeds all around but probably best in the West. 
Include this for cheap culture. 
Tennessee Prolific, (Perfect)—Originated in Virginia, a cross between 
Crescent and Sharpless, showing parentage of both. When you are looking for 
a berry as large as Bubach, with peifect blossom and more productive you have 
itin this. Among our many varieties of the regular field berries the Tennessee 
pleased us all, and our neighbors all speak well of it. When you plant this 
with such as Haverland and Warfield you can surely get quantities of berries, 
and no one will regret planting it if well cared for, yet it is a good one for 
the careless grower.
