JOE JOHNSO.N-A wonderful money-maker. 
JOE JOHNSON (BIG JOE). — (Perreot). T.Mte. 
Ril>ens with Che.saj)e:i ke. ;il)out threi- days 
befoi-e (iantly. Fruit is lirm ami of large 
size, lias a good flavor, no green tips, won- 
derfully productive; plants are strong grow- 
ers, thrives on any soil that will produce 
strawberries. We cr.nsider this variety equal 
to Chesapeake as a money maker, and in 
many instances better owing to its thriving 
in so great a variety of soils. If you are 
not growing .Joe. plant heavily of them this 
S|)ring. You will not be disappointed with 
the results. 
GAIVDY. — (Imperfect). I.ate. For this sec- 
tion, and iii.any other sections of the coun- 
try this is one of the best late varieties. 
Probably no higher compliment could be paid 
to this variety than the fact that all other 
late varieties are compared with it. For 
best results it should be planted In bl.aok 
swamp.v land, well drained, or if this is not 
possible, in sj)ringy land with some clav in 
its make-up, this variety should not be plant- 
ed on high sandy land. Here at Selbyville, 
Del., the largest strawlerry center in the 
world fully S--! of the plants grown are Gan- 
dy. and the growing of this variety of straw- 
berries has lifted more mortgages oft farms 
than any other crop planted. Fruit is ex- 
tremely large, fine flavor. We have known 
Gandy to be shiiiped 40n miles and still look 
better over f.mcy local berries. The perfect 
shape of the berries and the large bright 
green caps make the berries very beautiful 
and attractive. Us great shipping qualities 
enable it to hold this beauty and attractive- 
ness until it gets to market. 
SENATOR DUNLAP. — (Perfect). Early Midr 
season. A reliable market beriy. One that 
succeeds In all parts of the country, and is 
the most extensively planted variety in many 
sections of the west. Very productive. Fruit 
is medium to large, very firm and attr.ictive. 
Always sells for top prices. 
WIM.IAM BELT. — (Perfect). Mid-sea- 
son. Fruit very large and firm, of a delicate 
flavor, iilants strong and vigorous. Does 
not do well south of the Mason and Dixon 
line, hut for the northern half of the coun- 
try its one of the leaders, and known in 
many .sections as King among strawberries, 
owing to its quality .ind long fruiting .sea- 
son. 
TENNESSEE PROI.IPIC. (lerfect). Mid- 
se.oson. A- well known standard variety. Like 
Parsons Heauty. succeels over a gre.at ex- 
tent of the countiw. Fruit is \ery large, 
bright red, ordinary firm. One of the heav- 
iest cro]jpers we know. Plants are strong 
and vigorous and will thrive in any soil 
that other varieties will grow. 
NEW YORK. — (Perfect). Mid-se.\sc n. This 
is the strawberry that was aw^ined a iu'lze 
of $100.00 which was offererl r(>r the lest 
and largest berry on exhibit!' n. Plants are 
large and health.y. Fruit extie' elv large, 
well colored. Noted for prt du{ ing exti-a large 
crops of big red str.awberries, on \ ery poor 
soils. Extensively planted all over the north- 
ern section of this country for market pur- 
poses and family use. We doubt if there is 
a better mid-season variety for the northern 
states. This berry Is so poinilar it has been 
introduced under many different nances. We 
have heard of son:e good reports of New 
York in the southern sections of the coun- 
try, but do not recommend plan Ing Ne.v York 
south of Delaware and Maryland, fruit is not 
firm in southern localities.

STEVENS LATE CHAMPION. — (Perfect). 
Late. lOxtensively plante i tlifi ugliout the 
northern states. Plants strong and vigorous 
which yield heavy crops <if fi ult of large size 
and good iiiiality. Does not do well South 
owing lo rust, and fr'ult for some roas«»n in 
the .Sfiutbei-n states is too soft for (llst.ance 
shipping. .
