CURRANTS 
Perfection. ^his is the largest red currant known. It bears 
the largest crop of the largest clusters and has 
been awarded the first prizes wherever exhibited. It originated 
in Rochester, being a seedling of the Fay, the largest heretofore 
known, and the White Grape currant, the greatest bearer among 
currants - — thus combining the good qualities of both parents. 
A three-year-old plant well cared for and in proper ground will 
produce an 11 quart basket of fruit, and an acre holds 1500 plants. 
Doz., $2.50. 
Price of the following varieties, $1.35 per doz.

bunches; growth strong, stout, erect; short-jointed shoots.

flavor; less acid than the Cherry. It has a long stem which 
admits of rapid picking and is enormously productive.

mild acid. Excellent quality and valuable for the table. The 
finest of the white sorts.

STRAWBERRIES 
To insure a good crop 
of Strawberries the fol- 
lowing season plants 
should be set as early in 
the spring as the ground 
can be worked. Plants 
taken from the open 
ground in August or 
September are not 
properly matured, 
and if their setting is 
attended by hot, dry 
weather, such as we 
generally have at that 
time of the year, the 
majority of the plants 
will die, and under the 
most favorable circum- 
stances, give only a part- 
ial crop the first season, 
and the second crop will 
also be limited. 
Pot Grown plants 
that will produce some 
berries in the season fol- 
lowing the planting may be set in August or September, but these 
are necessarily expensive. 
Below we offer the most desirable and luscious for the home 
or market garden. Orders are filled with plants freshly dug 
from the ground and reach our customers in the best possible 
condition. 
Americus. ^he new summer and fall bearing strawberry- 
This new strawberry will revolutionize straws 
berry growing here. Plants set out in spring with first blossom, 
cut off will start to bear about the 1st of August and continue 
bearing until heavy frost in late October. The plant is very 
healthy, has fine bright green foliage, makes many runners and 
stands up in the hottest weather. The berry is medium in size 
and very firm, will keep perfectly good for four or five days in the 
box and is much sweeter and finer in quality than the early 
strawberry. Until this variety was introduced, late bearing 
strawberries never produced in quantity, this variety will. 
DIRECTIONS.— Plant early and keep blossoms cut off 
until June 25th. Manure heavily and cultivate sufficiently to 
give a soil mulch. Do not let many runners form. Irrigation 
in July and August will increase the crop. Doz., 75 cts.; per 
25, $1.00; per 100, $3.00.
