Warfield, P. (Female) 
EARLY. Pistillate. Few varieties are so uni- 
versally and favorably known as is the Warfield. 
This is the twenty-third year of selection in our 
breeding beds, and our strain of this variety has 
found favor in every section of North America 
from the Mexican border to Alaska. It thrives 
in all soils and under all sorts of climatic condi- 
tions, and it would be quite impossible to enum- 
erate all of its fine qualities. In size it is large 
and in form quite the ideal; its exterior is a glossy 
dark red, which does not fade or become dull after 
picking. The flesh is a rich dark-red clear to the 
center; it is very juicy and just tart enough to 
give it a fine relish. As a shipper it has no su- 
perior, and goes on the market at a long distance 
from the shipping point as fresh and beautiful as 
when picked from the vines. The fruiting season 
of the Warfield is exceedingly long and the yield 
throughout the season is very large. 
Fendall, P. (Female) 
EARLY TO LATE. Pistillate. This variety is 
famous for its long fruiting season. Berries have 
been gathered from the same patch on the 25th 
of May and on the 4th of July. A seedhng of 
the Wm. Belt, originated in the spring of 1905, 
it has won highest favor on seven distinct 
counts wherever grown: 1, great vigor of plant 
growth; 2, unusual size; 3, delicious flavor; 4, 
length of bearing season; 5, wonderful product- 
iveness; 6, beauty and symmetry of form; 7, its 
extraordinary root system. One grower reports 
a yield at the rate of 16,800 quarts per acre. The 
foliage is large and the root system is very 
heavy. Do not fail to order some of this great 
variety. It will prove a winner in your market. 
The illustration is the exact size of the original, 
and shows the extraordinary and very beautiful 
form of this variety, which promises to become 
a world-wide favorite.

T^HE above illustration shows the patch of Israel G. Croutha- 
* mel of Silverdale, Pa. at picking time. Mr. Crouthamel 
writes; "The plants in this field were purchased from your 
company and have proved to be very fine stock. ' Last season 
from an acre I cleared over $360, and many days the demand 
for the berries far exceeded the supply. I shall have three 
acres next season and exp'-ct to clear at least $1000 from them. 
Most all the plants wert Senator Dunlap, and the berries 
were of fine quality." Our strain of Dunlap leads them all.
