or when planting a field of them, every 
third row should be a staminate to in- 
sure perfect fertilization. Many ask, 
why not leave out the pistillate vari- 
eties, then we will have no trouble 
about fertilization? Our answer is that 
many of our verv vest and most profit- 
able varieties are self-sterile and when 
inte.ligently managed they produce the 
finest fruit and by far the most of it. 
In selecting varieties for description v.«. 
will restrict ourselves to those recog- 
nized as the best all around varieties 
for this section and onlv recommend 
HFDKnwoOD (S)— This is much recommended as a fertilizer for ail early 
bright red, good quality and a good shipper, riant has clean, thrifty foliage 
and makes runners freely. Same price as Bederwood. 
WARFIELD (P)— This has succeeded everywhere and with everybody. 
Sells well and ships well; bears immense crops of dark blood red berries. One 
of the very best for canning. Don't fail to plant some of this variety. Same 
price as Bederwood. 
HAVERLAND (P)— This is a berry that is immensely productive every- 
where Medium in season, fruit large, light in color, needs near market, but 
for home garden nothing excels it in amount of fruit. Price. 30c per 25; 40c 
per 50; 80c per 100; S3. 50 per 1,000. 
<J VKiDY'S PRIZE (S)— One of the most popular extra late sorts. The ber- 
ries are large, cone-shaped and as even as a top. and perhaps as largely 
planted as any late variety. It Is very productive, considering it ripens its 
berries nearly all at once and after most other varieties are running small, so 
the gorwer is still able to supply his customers with fine large berries. Same 
price as Ilaverlnnd.
