OUR FAMILY COLLECTION.— This collection 

 has been made after years of trial, and will give a 

 continuous crop for six weeks. The following va- 

 rieties are the choice ones of their respective sea- 

 son, from early to late. Varieties marked (P) 

 should have a perfect flowering sort planted ad- 

 joining them. 



MEEKS EARLY.— This is the earliest berry with 

 us, and is of good size, productive, a choice table 

 sort, and with us in 1896, gave a g-ood picking- every 

 other day for 15 aays. 



TENN. PROLIFIC— This is a splendid berry, and 

 is excelled by none during its season. A large berry, 

 sweet, firm, extra bright color, a strong g-rower 

 and heavy producer. It is very attractive, and of 

 uniform size and color, ripens to the end. 



BUBACH (P).— This is the standard berry wher- 

 ever grown. It is very large, very dark red, sweet 

 and an exceedingly strong grower, with very large, 

 dark foliage. Ripens from medium to late, and on 

 account of "size, color and sweetness, is one of the 

 best. 



GANDY.— This late berry is a vigorous grower, 

 has large fruit of good color. Ripens after others 

 have gone. It is fine for canning or table use, and 

 prolongs the season of strawebrries to the very lat- 

 est. In the latitude of Baltimore or Philadelphia 

 these four varieties will fruit from May 18th to 

 July 1st.
