SHUSTER'S GEM (P).— A maanificent variety with an unusually strong and 

 vigorous plant and bright healthy foliage. Fruit large, globular shape, regular and 

 uniform, maintaining a good size to the end, beautiful bright scarlet, excellent 

 quality. It is only moderately firm, and hence is not especially adapted for distant 

 shipment, but for the local market or for the home garden it is unexcelled. It does 

 not need petting of any sort, and it seems to adipt itself to almost any soil and lo- 

 cation. It is a remarkable berry and combines all merits desirable in a strawberry. 

 Early to midseason. 



Tippecanoe is very large and round as an apple. Moderately productive. Me- 

 dium early and good quality. Hardly productive enough to become popular. 



Westbrook is very early. Ripens with Michel's Early. Huffman, eto., firm and 

 productive, but very small. With meit will average about the size of cherries. 



Monmouth. — Also an early sort, but somewhat lacking in foliage in our beds* 

 Berry large and of good appearance. We know reliable growers who consider this 

 the best early strawberry.
