Parson's Beauty — (Bisexual.) 
General favorite, because of its many excellencies. It makes a heavy yield of 
brisht red berries, of mild and delicious flavor. As this is retained after cookinsj, 
this variety is very popular as a canner. Its appearance commands immediate and 
favorable attention. This variety has been extensively jrrovvn throughout the 
whole country. Its seeds stand out upon the surface of the fruit more prominently 
than any other variety with which I am familiar. The calyx is bushy, and the 
stem is heavy. The foliage is upright in form, with a rather long, dark green 
leathery leaf. One of its strongest points is the fact that it succeeds in all soil.s and 
climates. It is one of the best for a mid-season sort. 
Haverland — (Pistilla'e ) 
This is au old and well-known variety that has been tested for a generation. 
It is just as good to-day as it ever was. The plant is large, a strong grower, en- 
tirely free from rust and diseases, bears enormous crops of very large bright red 
l)erries. Although a pistillate variety, but very easily pollenized. No one starting 
in growing strawberries would regret planting the Haverland. 
Tennessee Prolific — (Bisexual.) 
This grand variety we have had in our fruiting beds for several years ; one of 
the best market sorts; good shipper; succeeds everywhere. The plants are vigor- 
ous and productive of large, bright showy fruit. This variety is one of the be.st to 
plant with some imperfect variety. Has always in every respect given me splendid 
results.
