LUPTON LATE. (Perfect). I.ale. A very good mid-season 
lo late variety, a seedling of the Gandy and season of ripening 
about four days ahead of the Gandy, which is a eood point, you 
get some fancy late berries on the market before the full iale 
crop gets on. This variety originated in New Jersey several 
years ago and is now one of the leaders in that State. The 
plants are healthy, large and long lived. Foliage heavy, dark 
green, fruit stocks short, berries set under the leaves and well 
protected; flower perfect, berry large, bright red. glossy and 
doesn't turn dark after being picke<I. Ha.s proven a great suc- 
cess so far wherever it has been planted. Jt sells for the high- 
est market prices and is especially recommended by commission 
merchants lor long distant shipment on account of its- firmness 
and good keeping qualities. 
GANDY. (Imperfect). Late. For this section, and many other 
sections of the country 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 black swampy land, 
well drained, or if this is not possible, in springy land with 
some clay in Its make-up, this variety should not be planted on 
high sandy land. Here at Selbyville, Del., the largest straw- 
berry center in the world, fully % of the plants grown are 
Gandy, and the growing of this variety of strawberries has 
lifted more mortgages off farms than any other crop planted. 
Fruit is extremely large, fine flavor. We have known Gandy t<i 
be shipped 400 miles and still look better over fancy local ber- 
ries. The perfect shape of the berries and the large bright 
green caps make the berries very beautiful and attractive. Its 
great shipping qualities enables it to hold this beauty and at- 
tractiveness imtil it gets to market. 
SUCCESS. (Perfect). Mid-season. Makes a yield on anv 
soil that will produce strawberries of any kind, the only fault 
of Success is that fruit is not firm enough for very long distance 
shipping, a very good one to plant tor home use, or local mar- 
kets, we might add that it can't be surpassed for this purpose. 
I^'ruit is large to e.xtra large, bright scarlet color; flavor is mild 
sweet and rich. 
EARLY OZARK. Among the very first to ripen and brings 
the grower good money on that account. Beautiful and |)rodu< - 
live, but not sweet until "dead" ripe. 
Our Plants Produce Big Crops of Big Red 
Berries 
Dear sirs: I received 1,200 New York strawberry 
Ijlants in the spring of 1919 and will say that they 
certainly did wonderful. Last year was the first bear- 
ing season, and the plants were certainly loaded down 
with big red berries. I have wonderful success in 
planting your new-land grown strawberry plants, and 
am enclosing remittance for another order of 1,.^)00 New 
York. 
Yours very truly, 
April 2, 1921. ALVIN SHULTZ, Penna.
