GIBSON.— This is not the old variety of that 
name which orifdnated in New York several years 
ago. It is a local berry of great promise and 
closely resembles the Pocomoke. It commences to 
ripen with the second earlies and continues for a 
long season, making a heavy • yield of fruit. The 
fruit stems are large and strong, and the dark 
green foliage is ample protection for the blossoms 
and fruit. It is a very strong staminate variety 
and makes an excellent poUenizer for pistillate va- 
rieties. The berry is large and regular in shape. 
. holding its size well to end of season. Its color is 
a rich dark red clear through. Its flavor is fine, 
just right for home use. It is very hardy and will 
withstands frosts better than most varieties. Gib- 
son is almost a sure cropper, in fact we have never 
known it to fail to produce a profitable crop of 
excellent berries. We advise you to plant Gibson. 
You will certainly be pleased with them. 
Price, 60 cents per 100; $3.25 per 1,000. 
WARFfELD. — This old variety is still very pop- 
ular as a market sort, standing next to Senator 
Dunlap, the two together make a good team as 
they are similar in appearance and go well to- 
gether in the crate. In plant growth this variety 
is similar to Senator Dunlap, a good drouth resist- 
er and an excellent grower. This excellent vari- 
ety is being overlooked in the search for some- 
thing new. It is remarkable the number of quarts 
that can be picked from this variety if given good 
soil and a little care. Warfield is much superior to 
a great many newer varieties. It is the very best 
canning berry we have ever grown. It is quite 
tart, but of good rich flavor, which it holds after 
canning. Senator Dunlap makes an excellent pol- 
lenizer for this variety, and if the rows are not 
allowed to become too wide and closely matted, 
they will yield wonderful returns. 
Our plants are on new ground and are excep- 
tionally large and strong for this variety. 
Price, 50 cents per 100: $2.50 per 1,000. 
BEDERWOOD.— This is an old reliable standarTT 
early variety. One of the very best early kinds for 
market or home use. It is a splendid grower, mak- 
ing a large number of strong runners. The roots 
are plenty, and extra long, making it a good vari- 
ety for light soils. Fruit of good size, light red in 
color and reasonably firm. It is immensely pro- 
ductive. Commences to ripen with August Luther, 
and is of long season, berries run small towards 
end of season. It is the leading early berry in this 
County and throughout the Central States. It is 
a regular cropper and you can depend on it every 
season. 
You will do well to include Bederwood in your 
order. 
Price, 50 cents per 100: 12.50 per 1,000. 
jGLEN MARY.— An excellent berry. We will 
give the introducer's description : "Throughout 
New England and the West it is the leading berry 
of the list today. We sell more plants of it year 
in and year out than any other variety we grow. 
I doubt if there is any berry that will equal it in 
every respect. The berries are large, red beauties, 
with prominent seeds of bright yellow ; the meat is 
rich and juicy and crimson in color. They are of 
such fine flavor that when one is eaten more are 
wanted. As a good, firm shipper it is very popu- 
lar; for fancy local market there are few if any 
better. For this reason they are popular with 
both the large and small growers. It has no par- 
ticular choice of soils and does not require petting. 
The roots are plenty and long, providing plenty of 
moisture during a drouth. The foliage is large, 
upright in growth, green color, leaves nearly 
round with dark glossy surfaces, making a beauti- 
ful appearance in the field. The fruit stems, al- 
though large and strong, are weighted to the 
ground with the large clustera of berries, for this 
reason Ihey should be well mulched to keep them 
clean. The berries are just the right size to make 
a fine appearance in the crate, and you don't have 
to be timid about asking a big price for them. 
Everyone wants extra fine berries and arc willing 
to pay for them." 
This variety will make a profitable addition to 
your list. We have fruited it for several seasons 
and find it a very profitable variety. We have a 
large supply of extra nice plants and are making 
a reasonable price on them. 
Price, 60 cents per 100; $3.25 per 1,000.
