--^^meeKer €berry. 
ORIGINATED in New Haven and sent out only by us. The quality of the 
fruit is the ideal Oxhrart type, meaty, sweet and juicy, combined with 
its own peculiarly agreeable flavor. Color when fully ripe is a rich 
yellow, shading to a brilliant red on the sunny side. For shape and size see 
illustration. An important feature of this new cherry is its productiveness and 
annual bearing habit, not having failed to produce a heavy crop yearly since 
coming into bearing. The fruit does not decay before maturity — a fatal weak- 
ness of many of the older sorts. Season of ripening is July 5th to loth at New 
Haven. A limited number only of nice trees to offer of this new cherry.

...Strawberry Plants... 
IT is surprising what a quantity of luscious berries can be taken from a garden 
patch of strawberry plants. One who enjoys fresh berries, direct from the 
garden, with their delicious flavor, rich aroma, and beautiful color, needs no 
argument to convince him that they are far superior to berries obtained in the 
market. Strawberry plants are of easiest culture, requiring only usual garden 
conditions. Plants set out this Spring will, by another season, have formed solid 
rows, and produce a full crop. Set plants for garden culture in rows from one to 
two feet apart and the plants in the rows from six to twelve inches apart, depend- 
'^S on the method to be used in cultivating. 
We have many new varieties on trial but offer below only such varieties as 
we believe are sure to give general satisfaction, as they are now standard kinds. 
Varieties marked (P.) are piitillate; {S.), staminate. Every fifth row, or about every fifth 
plant in the row should be a staminate variety to get the heaviest yield of fruit.
