Copyright 1915 by R. M. Kellogg Co., Three Rivers, Mich. 
dark-red on the upper side, shading to brigfht-red on the under 
oide. The meat is for the most part deep pink, becominK al- 
most white at the center. It grows generous crops, and never 
have we known anyone who did not enjoy its rich and delicious 
flavor. The berries are very large and belong distinctly in the 
fancy class. Grown only on our Three Rivers farm. 
Gandy (B) Male 
LATE. Bisexual. Gandy was one of the varieties which was 
adopted by R. M. Kellogg at the beginning of his great work 
and was offered by him to the trade in his first list. That we 
are still growing this splendid variety from scions of the 
origmal stock is certainly a tribute to its high value. Gandy 
has many special qualities— it is one of the latest of all berries; 
it gives Its largest yields in heavy clay soil; it is one of the 
best shippers ever originated— three points of excellence 
which have made it a universal favorite. Grown only on our 
Three Rivers farm. 
Cardinal (P) Female 
LATE. Pistillate. This variety takes its name from its 
extraordinarily rich cardinal shade of color. In season it ranks 
among the latest of the pistillate varieties, and as its fruit 
begins to ripen about mid-season, the length of its fruiting 
period is very great. Cardinal is famous for withstanding 
heavy frosts at blooming time and for its large yields of high- 
class fruit. This is the ninth year we have had Cardinal on 
our farms. Grown only on our Three Rivers farm. 
Marshall (B) Male 
LATE. Bisexual. Marshall is one of the blood-red varieties 
that always attracts the eye. and its delicious qualities 
perfectly satisfy the taste. It has held a place of honor on our 
list for twenty-two years and never has failed to give complete 
satisfaction to high-class trade. Throughout New England 
this variety has won more first prizes than any other single 
variety, and it also enjoys wide popularity in the middle and 
western states, and in California and Oregon it is grown very 
extensively. Grown on both our Three Rivers and Twin Falls 
farms. 
Stevens' Late Champion (B) Male 
LATE. Bisexual. We have been growing this variety for 
eight years and it steadily increases in popularity. One 
reason for this is its universality, as it thrives in practically 
every section of the United States and Canada. It is a very 
late variety; isa strong bisexual; produces immense quantities 
of fl ne market berries. As it blooms very late, it is immune 
to late soring frosts and it continues in full fruit when most 
of the late varieties have finished their fruiting season. 
Grown only on our Three Rivers farm. 
Commonwealth (B) Male 
VERY LATE. Bisexual. This variety is a general favorite 
throughout New England. It has the distinction of adding at 
least one week to the fruiting season of the strawberry. The 
berry is dark rich red, cox-comb in form, and the surface of 
the fruit is smooth. The meat is rich and juicy and this va- 
riety develops very large crops of distinctly fancy fruit. It is 
a strong pollenizer and is of great value in pollenizing late 
pistillatcs. Grown only on our farm at Three Rivers. 
Americus (B) Male 
EVERBEARING. Bisexual. After several years of grow- 
ing this variety we can without hesitation recommend it to 
the Coast regions, both Atlantic and Pacific. It already en- 
joys a very great popularity throughout the New England 
states and in California, Oregon and Washington. This also 
is true of many of the Mississippi Valley states, as Illinois, 
Iowa and Indiana. It is a heavy fruiter of fairly large ber- 
ries of delicious flavor. Grown only at our Three Rivers farm. 
Productive (P) Female 
EVERBEARING. Pistillate. This variety has a growing 
popularity in the Western states and has won the reputation 
of growing immense crops of berries under favorable condi- 
tions. Like all other fall-bearing varieties, it gives to the 
grower great pleasure and profit. Any of the bisexual ever- 
bearing varieties will perfectly pollenize the bloom of Produc- 
tive. Grown at our Three Rivers farm only. 
A Report From Canada 
"'T'HE Superb everbearer and the Fendall plants I purchased 
* from you in the spring of 1914 were a sight to see this 
summer," writes N. I. Unger of Belleville, Ont., under date of 
July 23, 1915. "Nearly everyone who saw them said they 
never saw strawberry plants loaded so heavily, and I believe 
the Progressive plants which I purchased this spring will 
prove to be as great a surprise to spectators as those other 
two varieties by the loads of blossoms they are getting now. I 
counted eight fruiting stems on one plant. I never lost a 
single plant of them and all looking fine. A satisfied custom- 
UBually returns, so below you will find an order for seven more 
varieties which I wish to try."
