Brief Descriptions of Varieties We Carry But Which 
Are Not Illustrated in This Edition 
Extra-Early Varieties 
Early Ozark (B) Male 
EXTRA-EARLY. Bisexual. This great early variety, 
originated in the Ozark hills of Missouri, grows in popu- 
larity from year to year. A cross of Excelsior and 
Aroma, this variety combines the excellent character- 
istics of both of these widely known varieties. It has 
the earliness of Excelsior combined with the flavor and 
generous size of Aroma— a very unusual and valuable 
combination. Ozark is a bisexual very strong in pollen, 
and in addition to its fine qualities as a yielder it is a 
powerful pollenizer of pistillate varieties. Grown on both 
Three Rivers and Twin Falls farms. 
Longfellow (B) Male 
EXTRA-EARLY. Bisexual. Longfellow is a Kellogg 
origination and ever since we began selecting and fruit- 
ing this variety in 1905 it has steadily grown in popular- 
ity. In form the fruit is long and of perfect strawberry 
type; in color it is dark red which extends from cir- 
cumference to center. In flavor it is as rich as any va- 
riety we have ever tested and is very mild and sweet. 
It is a profuse bloomer and every bloom is perfect, mak- 
ing it an ideal pollenizer of pistillates of the early and 
mid-season. Longfellow is growing rapidly in popular- 
ity in Missouri and other South-western states. One 
Missourian writes: "Longfellow is the best of all." 
Grown on both our Three Rivers and Twin Falls farms. 
Early Varieties 
Warren (B) Male 
EARLY. Bisexual. Warren has during the last three 
years won high place among the early varieties, and it 
has become universally popular as a strong bisexual and 
an especially heavy yielder of large and luscious, uni- 
formly shaped berries. The plants are very vigorous 
with strong, leathery foliage of very dark green. The 
calyx is of light green which adds greatly to the beauty 
and fine appearance of this variety. Warren won the 
silver medal of the Massachusetts Horticultural Society 
in 1912— a notable honor, because there is no other so- 
ciety in the United States whose medals are more highly 
prized. Grown only at our Three Rivers farm. 
Jessie (B) Male 
EARLY. Bisexual. Among growers who aim to pro- 
duce fancy strawberries and find their soil well adapted 
to its production, Jessie ranks among the leaders. 
Under right conditions it is one of the most satisfactory 
varieties produced by commercial growers. It is an ex- 
tremely heavy yielder of highest quality fruit and 
adds to these advantages that of being an excellent fer- 
tilizer for early pistillates. Grown on our Three Rivers 
and Twin Palls farms. 
Heritage (B) Male 
EARLY. Bisexual. One of the largest and finest ber- 
ries ever grown which is steadily increasing in popular- 
ity as its splendid qualities become known. In shape the 
berry is conical and long, having an obtuse point. In 
color it is a dark lustrous shade of crimson and is stud- 
ded with brilliant yellow seeds-a combination of fine 
flavor and beauty that renders it one of the most popular 
of the early-season varieties. This is the fifth year we 
have offered Heritage, and the demand for it grows 
steadily. Grown only on our Three Rivers farm. 
Crescent (P) Female 
MEDIUM EARLY. Pistillate. For more than thirty 
years we have offered this extraordinary pistillate to our 
customers, and the fact that its popularity never has 
waned is the highest tribute we can pay to its general 
excellence. In size the berries are medium and the 
larger proportion of them are broad wedge-shape, taper- 
ing to a dull point. In quality the fruit is excellent, the 
flesh is close-grained and solid, the flavor is deliciously 
tart and the berry exceedingly juicy. Crescent ranks 
very high both as a shipper and canner and is a prime 
favorite for table use. You always may count upon 
large yields of fine fruit from this variety. Grown only 
on our Three Rivers farm. 
Billy Sunday (B) Male 
EARLY. Bisexual. All that we said of this new origi- 
nation in our 1916 book has been more than realized in 
actual experience. The Billy Sunday is a prolific yielder 
of high grade fruit, which is produced continuously from 
early to late, beginning somewhat earlier than the War- 
field and closing its season just before Sample ceases to 
bear. The foliage is tall and large; fruiting stems are 
long and hold the fruit well above the foliage until the 
fruit weighs them down. In size, flavor and color it is 
ideal, and there are few varieties that have a more de- 
licious flavor than this extraordinary origination. All 
growers should give this variety, which is native to 
Ohio, a thorough test. Grown only at Three Rivers. 
Bederwood (B) Male 
EARLY. Bisexual. No higher tribute need be paid this 
variety than to say that this is the twenty-eighth year 
we have grown it, and that it steadily increases in popu- 
larity in northern latitudes and in high altitudes. In 
color the berry is a delicate crimson, having a glossy 
surface, in which are embedded bright, yellow seeds. In 
size the berries are medium, and in addition to their ex- 
cellent flavor are famous for fine shipping and canning 
qualities. It has a long blooming season and is a strong 
fertilizer. Grown only on our Three Rivers farm. 
Clyde (B) Male 
EARLY TO LATE. Bisexual. After twenty-one years 
of experience with this notable variety we can say that 
it represents one of the highest types of strawberry ex- 
cellence. Indeed, its universal popularity is shown by 
the fact that it is very successful in all Northern states 
and from Southern California to Northern British Co- 
lumbia on the Pacific Coast. Some California growers 
consider it the greatest variety known and therefore 
grow only that variety. It is a strong pollenizer of 
pistillate varieties. Grown both on Three Rivers and 
Twin Falls farms. 
Helen Davis (B) Male 
EARLY. Bisexual. Introduced by us in 1911, Helen 
Davis has become a leading favorite in almost every 
section of the Eastern and Middle states and has now 
attained large popularity in the Inter-Mountain states. 
It is particularly adapted to the colder regions of the 
Northwest and is a prime favorite in the irrigated 
districts. It is a prolific yielder of beautiful fruit of 
large size. It is famous for its ability to withstand 
severe drouths. Grown both on Three Rivers and Twin 
Falls farms. 
Medium Varieties 
Nick Ohmer (B) Male 
MEDIUM TO LATE. Bisexual. For many years a 
favorite throughout the Northern and Atlantic-Seaboard 
states, Nick Ohmer has during the last three years won 
almost universal popularity among the extensive straw- 
berry growers of the Pacific Coast. More than that, it 
now ranks among the first selections in the Gulf regions 
of the country. In a word, Nick Ohmer has become 
practically a universal favorite. Especially noted for
