Blakemore. Large berries, bright red 

 clear through. Firm enough for a good 

 market berry and of delicious flavor. 

 Superior to Premier as an early market 

 sort. 



Early Jersey Giant. Long known as 

 "The early Strawberry without a fault." 

 Produces an abundance of large fruit 

 which is both attractive and of extra- 

 high quality. 



Premier. Most popular Strawberry of 

 its season and until the introduction of 

 Dorsett and Fairfax the best early 

 Strawberry because of its prolific crops 

 and attractive fruit. 



Success. An old favorite with marvelous 

 yields of fruit which is bright scarlet in 

 color, delicious in flavor, and among the 

 best for the home garden. 



Any of the above early sorts: 

 $1.00 per doz.; S8.00 per 100. 



Two New Early Strawberries 

 of Special Merit 



Dorsett. This is the recent introduction 

 of the U. S. Department of Agriculture 

 which is destined to lead the commercial 

 field as an early variety. Has beautiful 

 bright scarlet berries with a delicious 

 wild-Strawberry flavor. Of good size, 

 perfect quality, and sufficiently firm for 

 distant shipping. 



Fairfax. This will rule over the second- 

 early varieties. As sweet as Dorsett but 

 a few days later and having firmer flesh 

 of a darker color. Produces well even 

 during unfavorable seasons. 



Either of the above two New Varieties: 

 $1.50 per doz.; $10.00 per 100. 



Midseason Strawberries 



Big Joe. A very profitable and popular 

 midseason sort which gives success 

 wherever planted. Produces very many 

 attractive, firm berries of sweet, luscious 

 flavor. 



Marshall. An aristocrat among Straw- 

 berries. With a bit of care the large, 

 dark, glossy crimson fruits of this sweet 

 and delicious variety will produce the 

 very acme of h^ky perfection. An old 

 favorite. tr

 season varietvand very popular produc- 

 ing tremend(B^h»i)3 of quality berries

 most productive. Has large, irregularly

 surpassed by any other variety. 



Late Strawberries 



Chesapeake. This is the most popular 

 of the late varieties. Has bright red 

 berries of very large size, yet is firm 

 enough for market. Of exceptionally 

 delicious flavor. 



Gandy. A very late, old favorite sort 

 with firm, large berries of most attractive 

 appearance and a fine sweet flavor. 



Lupton. This is very large like Gandy 

 but by far more productive. The berries 

 mature about 5 to 6 days earlier. We 

 consider this one of the very finest of the 

 late-fruiting varieties.

 firm, sugar-sweet berries.
