SENATOR DUNJjAP does well In most local- 
ities, is a fine table and canning berry, a good 
shipper, an excellent cropper. 
You can't go wrong if you set our Dunlaps, 
which by continuous selection for health, vigor, 
and productiveness have continued to improve 
under our system of cultivation until they 
are recognized by Fruit Plant Inspectors, 
by men thoroughly versed in the ways of fancy 
fruit culture, by nurserymen, by our neighbors, 
as a plant of highest merit, with productive 
qualities unsurpassed. The berry is a beautiful 
crimson color, large size, firm, dark red flesh, 
its bright golden seeds making it very attrac- 
tive. On account of its great firmness it can be 
shipped to distant markets. Holds up a long 
while after being picked. 
The wonderful vigor of the plant will fill 
your row a long time before any of the others 
get fairly started. The plant makes runners so 
freely that you must check it by keeping the 
row cut down to about eight inches wide. 
Don't let the plants mat too thickly. 
PREMIER (Per.) The Premier is a fine 
berry. Its earliness and great productiveness will 
soon bring it to the front and make it one of the 
leading berries for market. Being compara- 
tively a new berry it is not well known, but 
those who have tried it during the past year 
praise it very highly and say it is a great acqui- 
sition to the standard kinds of berries. We 
recommend it being given a good fair trial. 
The plant makes a nice growth, has a bright 
waxy appearance, and is distinguishable from 
other varieties. We have a nice stock of them. 
The introducer gives this berry a great boost. 
We have not fruited it, but from the descrip- 
tion given by a reliable nursery company, 
would say it might be good business to try 
them. 
COL/UNS (Per.) Introduced by Mr. C. E. 
Whitten of Bridgman, from whom we have pro- 
cured our supply of plants for propagating pur- 
poses. You run no chance of getting anything 
but the true Collins from us. The plant growth 
resembles Bederwood very much. Indications 
are that it is a much healthier plant and Mr. 
Whitten says the color is a deep red and has a 
goosl flavor. As we have not fruited this berry 
we still think it may be the berry for a great 
many people, and believe It will succeed where 
many others fail. 
AROMA (Per). A popular berry grown by 
many in place of the Gandy. Foliage smooth, 
deep green, of spreading habit. The leaves are 
long, broad and clean. As a poUenizer for late 
pistillates it is unexcelled. The berries of this 
variety are very large, bright red. The flavor 
of the fruit is deliciously aromatic and very 
rich, the flesh is smooth and solid. A very pop- 
ular berry in the South. 
CHARIjES the first. Charles the First 
has proven itself one of the very best early 
berries, yielding more quarts of fine. large ber- 
ries than any other early variety. It is a strong 
fertilizer and very thrifty grower; berries are 
large, regular in form. Recommended by suc- 
cessful berry growers. 
BRAND'i'AVINE (Per.) The berries are 
glossy crimson, very handsome, firm and solid, 
excellent in quality, with flne aromatic flavor. 
Plant is remarkably vigorous. Midseason to 
liTte. Thrives best on good strong soil. 
BEDERWOOD (Per). One of the very best 
early varieties for home use or market. It is a 
splendid grower, making a large number of 
strong runners. It has a perfect blossom, and 
is Immensely productive. Fruits of good size, 
light red, medium firmness. One of the best to 
plant with early blooming pistillate varieties. 
MAGIC GEM. One of the very latest intro- 
ductions. A very strong plant and makes a 
good row of thrifty looking plants. Berries of 
very best flavor, good size and color; will ship 
to nearby markets in good condition. Very pro- 
ductive and recommended for the home table. 
A southern grower says, "Magic Gem berries 
are so large that they will not go into a com- 
mon water glass." 
KELLiOGG'S PRIZE. This is a pistillate va- 
riety and is claimed to cover a long season. The 
originator describes it as follows: "Kellogg's 
Prize continued to bear a little later than the 
Sample and Stevens' Late Champion, nnd was 
the last to be found on the vines. If the pub- 
lic knew of the value of this variety the de- 
mand for plants could not be supplied." Very 
highly colored, with golden seeds, the rich col- 
oring extending to the center; flavor delicious; 
the cap is ample and in harmony with the size 
of the berries. 
HAVERLAND (Imp.) This is a midseason 
producer. The plants are healthy, vigorous, 
and large, producing ample rufiners: the stems 
are unable to hold the fruit from the ground. 
This makes mulching desirable. 
POCOMOKE (Per.) Prom the standpoint of 
a commercial grower, this comes very near be- 
ing a perfect variety. It is a healthy, luxuriant 
grower, making plenty of runners, and is an 
abundant bearer of large, firm, bright red 
berries. Never mishapen and holds up in 
size better than a great many varieties. It is a 
superior berry in every way. Very popular as 
a canner. Needs no petting and will produce 
large crops under reasonably good culture.
