Big Late (Imperfect) — Ranks at the top in productiveness. 
It is a very vigorous grower and persistent producer. ^ The 
great crop of berries averages large in size. Big Late is the 
glossiest berry we have with prominent seeds. In quality it 
ranks at the top. Blossoms imperfect. Big Joe, Ekey are O. K. 
as pollenizers for this fine berry. 
Early Jersey Giant (Perfect) — A very large medium early 
berry of highest quality. Conical in shape, deep red in color. 
Large green caps which make fruit very attractive. Berries 
large and firm and delicious in quality. Good for fancy trade. 
Early Ozark (Perfect)— Stands near the top as an extra early 
market berry. Plants tall, dark green and absolutely healthy. 
Berries large, dark red in color, fairly good quality. Good 
shipper. 
Excelsior (Perfect)— Extra early. One of the first to ripen; 
^an old standard variety suitable to all sections of the country 
where strawberries can be grown. 
Ekey (Perfect) — A vigorous growing variety that you can de- 
pend on to give a big crop. The berries resemble in shape 
Haverland. This is a good variety to plant with it. The berries 
are of good quality, and firm enough to ship, and the large 
bright green caps make it very attractive in appearance. 
Gandy (Perfect)— One of the best known of all Strawberries. 
For best results, it should be planted in black swamp land. 
Never plant Gandy in dry. sandy soil. It is not a heavy pro- 
ducer, but the berries it does produce are uniformly large in 
size, brilliant in color and have a larp:e. bright green cap, which 
makes the berries very beautiful and attractive. 
Glen Mary (Perfect) — A choice variety that will well repay 
extra care and culture, delighting the amateur ; ami one that 
is profitable also, in a fancy market. The berries are large, 
bright, glossy crimson, and so handsome as to bring the highest 
price ; moderately firm and fine in flavor. The plant is vigor- 
ous and healthy, very productive, and the berries maintain 
their large size until the close of the season. Season, medium 
to late. 
Haverland (Imperfect)— The plants are healthy and vigorous, 
making ample runners. It seems to do well in nearly every part 
of the country, and we seldom, if ever, have any complaint from 
this variety. It is a good one to tie to. The blossoms are 
pistillate, medium size and extremely hardy. The Haverland 
should be well mulched, as the fruit stems are not able to hold 
the immense load of berries from the ground. It is so enor- 
mously productive that the bright, large, juicy berries lie in 
great heaps around the plants. 
Paul .Tones (Imperfect) — The introducer of this variety says 
it will lead in productiveness on all kinds of land. They will 
grow anywhere and certainly do produce the fruit. The berries 
are long and conical like the Haverland, ripen evenly all over, 
are of good quality and are good shippers. 
Where a large quantity of medium-sized, good-quality, good- 
looking berries is wanted, Paul Jones should be planted. 
Prolific (Imperfect) — This variety we have had on our grounds 
many years. As a heavy-yielding late variety, it is very good ; 
the berries are conical of fair size : no seedy green tips. 
Sample (Imperfect) — Of large size, quite firm, commences to 
ripen mid-season and continues till very late, keeping up a con- 
tinual supply of large berries to the end. The foliage is large 
and healthy, blossoms imperfect ; fruit of good quality. It is 
truly a marvel of productiveness and a variety which will yield 
dollars to those who plant it. 
Stevens Late Champion (Perfect) — This is one of the most 
profitable and productive late berries we know of, and seems to 
do well in almost all soils and locations. Berries large in 
size, dark red and firm. 
Success (Perfect)— This is the lai-gest and best extra early 
berry we have ever fruited ; would not bo a good shipper, but 
for a nearby market can't be beaten for its season. 
William Belt (Perfect) — Of all the many varieties of the 
Strawberry grown today, William Belt, undoubtedly, is one of 
the most popular. The plant is vigorous, though not a rampant 
grower, succeeds upon almost all soils, invariably yields very 
heavily. The berries are always of large size and high quality. 
Flesh is solid and deep crimson in color, while the blossoms 
are large with abundance of pollen. William Belt begins to 
ripen quite early and continues until almost the close of the 
season ; the last berries being large, handsome and full-flavored. 
Indeed, it is a king among Strawberries, as it is firm and among 
the largest— many of the berries being of great size — and gives 
Urge pickings for a longer period than almost any other variety.
