THE BARNES BROS. NURSERY CO., YALESVILLE, CONN. 
DUNLAP (Perfect). A very productive dark red 
conical berry of excellent quality, ripening medium 
early. 
GANDY (Perfect). This superb late variety is second 
to none as a fine, handsome, beautiful, firm, fine-flavored 
late berry. The fruit always brings the highest market 
price. This is one of the most profitable) berries to grow 
for a fancy market or for home use, where quality is the 
first consideration. 
GLEN MARY (Perfect). A choice variety that will 
well repay extra care and culture, delighting the ama- 
teur; and one that is profitable, also, in a fancy market. 
The berries are large, bright glossy crimson, and so hand- 
some as to bring the highest price; moderately firm and 
fine in flavor. The plant is vigorous and healthy, very- 
productive, and the berries maintain their large size until 
the close of the season. Season medium to late. 
HAVERLAND (Imp.). The smallest plants of the 
Haverland bear abundantly. The fruit is long and large, 
light red, very attractive, moderately firm; season early. 
A valuable berry for home use. 
HUMMER (Perfect). These large, vigorous plants 
load up with big, beautiful, luscious berries and are highly thought of by many. 
MARSHALL (Perfect). The plant is large and strong, very prolific; 110 berries have 
been counted on a single plant. The fruit is handsome and attractive, very large, fourteen 
berries having been known to fill a quart box. Of perfect form, dark crimson when fully 
ripe, but covers all over a light crimson before ripe, and is thus valuable for market. Quality 
and flavor excellent. 
MEAD (Perfect) This promising new variety originated in Massachusetts. The 
originator says: "It is a good thrifty grower, with healthy foliage, perfect blossom, and 
fruit as near perfection in shape and form as any I ever saw. Flesh reddish and solid, 
and to my taste one of the best in quality. It is a heavy cropper of good-sized berries, 
which hold their size well till close of season. It colors evenly, with no white tips, does 
well on all kinds of land, and will make a good showing on very light soil." It resembles 
the Clyde in shape ; color glossy red and promises to rank with Sample as a producer and 
with Gandy as a shipper. 
MINUTEMAN (Imp.). It is hard to decide which is best, this or Sample. It is a good 
grower, large, good color and quality. A good market berry on light land. 
MISS BOSTON (Imp.). This berry is recommended very highly by some of the Dighton, 
Mass., growers. Said to be as productive as Haverland and a better shipper. 
NETTIE (Imp.). Out of 50 or 60 varieties we fruited last season this was the latest. 
It is very large and productive. In color — well, it makes us think of a freckled mulatto, 
but its size and lateness make it sell. 
NEW YORK (Perfect) . This variety is fast becoming a favorite. It is a cross of Bubach 
and Jessie. Mr. Kellogg says: "New York is a fancy berry for fancy trade. Very large, 
bright red, strong foliage, and heavy fruiter." 
NICK OHMER (Perfect). Large, regular, dark, glossy red, firm and of excellent flavor; 
very vigorous and productive. 
OOM PAUL (Perfect). Mr. Kevitt of New Jersey says this is the largest berry he ever 
fruited. The first season he fruited it he sold every box for 25 cents, one box selling for 
$10, it had six berries in it, and also that it is a marvel of productiveness. 
SAMPLE (Imp.). This new berry originated in Massachusetts. It is 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, blossom im- 
perfect, fruit of good quality. It is truly a marvel of productiveness and a variety which 
will yield dollars to those who plant it. 
SAUNDERS (Perfect). Large, deep glossy red, good pollenizer, yields good crops on 
light soils. 
SOMERSET MAID (Imp.). Mr. Carr of Massachusetts says he recommends this as one 
of the very best fancy berries to set in his vicinity. Fruit very largo, bright scarlet and 
firm, and bears immense crops on high or low land. 
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.
