10 C. S. Perdue's Strawberry Plant Farms 





DORSETT (Perfect). Early. They were 

 originated by Dr, George M. Darrow and his 

 assistants in the U. S. Department of Agri- 

 culture and have been grown since 1923. In 

 previous years where accurate records were 

 kept they have been about equal or superior 

 in productiveness to Premier. My personal 

 experience here with the Dorsett is that they 

 are inclined to produce plants very thickly 

 in the beds grown for fruiting purposes, while 

 the Premier sets plants more thinly in the 

 beds and this habit of the Premier variety 

 is a very desirable one for most all strawberry 

 growers who prefer the matted row system. 

 Dorsett makes quite a lot of plants that are 

 very vigorous, bearing a very large crop of 

 large size dark red berries of fine quality and 

 excellent flavor and are beautiful showy ber- 

 ries that look well in the package and should 

 bring high prices on the markets. If you 

 have not tried out this variety I would recom- 

 mend a thorough tryout of the Dorsett. I 

 have a large and fine stock of State certified, 

 disease free, 100% true to name Dorsett 

 plants. Send your orders to me. Prices ; 25 

 plants 25c ; 50 plants 50c ; 100 for 80c ; 200 for 

 31.00; $300 for S1.25; 400 for S1.60; 500 for 

 $2.00; 1000 for S4.00; 5000 for 817.50, cash

 charges. Delivered price on request. 



The Plants Are Very Good 

 James luliano of Conn, says: "Received the 10,000 

 Premier today in very good condition, also the plants 

 are very good." April 17, 1935.
