46 STRAWBERRIES. 
STATE NURSERY CO. 
The fruiting plant that stands the severe conditions of 
Montana's climate with splendid credit to itself is the 
Strawberry. For the space it occupies in the garden it is 
hard to find anything to equal it and our patrons show a 
constantly increasing appreciation of this fact. To meet 
demands, we have plants this year in greater quantity and 
variety than ever before. They are all fine plants, grown 
on our own grounds. 
For years the Senator Dunlap has stood at the head in 
this state as a plant sufficiently hardy to endure all cli- 
matic vicissitudes. Thorough tests have proven that the 
Wm. Belt, Splendid, Stevens' Late Champion and Chesa- 
peake are exceptionally hardy and worthy in other re- 
spects. We heartily recommend them. Their culture will 
extend the fruiting season very materially. 
Strawberries are either perfect flowered or imperfect. 
The imperfect varieties should be planted in rows between 
those having perfect flowers. The best mate for Sample 
will be Wm. Belt; for Haverland, Buster, or Fendall, Sena- 
tor Dunlap. 
Senator Dunlap, P. — Hardy, strong grower, prolific plant 
maker, good bearer of firm berries that stand trans- 
portation well. The best early, mid-season berry for 
Montana and more generally planted than any other. 
Wm. Belt, P. — No berry sufficiently hardy to stand our 
high elevations is equal to this in flavor. Plants are good 
sized and productive. A splendid mid-season berry, sure 
to please all who grow it who like fine fruit. 
Splendid, P. — A new variety in Montana and a very fine 
one. Plants are hardy and very productive. Berries are 
irregular in shape, but are of fine flavor. A money 
maker for those who grow berries for market. 
Stevens' Late Champion, P. — First fruit matures about a 
week later than Senator Dunlap. Plants are admirably 
adapted to Montana: they produce quantities of berries 
of fine size and flavor. 
Chesapealte, P. — Not as productive as the above varieties, 
but later. Unequalled by any other as a very late berry. 
Plants very large and perfectly hardy. Fruit stems 
erect, berries large and perfect in shape. 
Early Ozark, P.— In the south this variety has made a 
record for itself as an extra early variety. It is worthy 
of a trial with us to see if it will prove earlier than the 
Senator Dunlap, our most reliable, dependable early 
variety thus far. 
Aroma, P.— This is one of the leading shipping berries in 
the south. Us demonstrated excellence there as a late 
jjorrv makes it worthy of trial here. 
Good Luck, P.— Plants large and very hardy. If they pro- 
duce acpording to size of plant, they are all right. 
Ruhv. P. — Does very well in some parts of the state. Some 
of our customers find it a good vielder. 
Marshall. P.— A standard variety that has many friends in 
many parts of the country. It does very nicely in por- 
tions of Montana where the climatic conditions are not 
too severe. 
Sharpless. P. — A very old favorite, but we advise nlantiner 
it only in the milder nortions of the state, neither plant 
nor blossom being as hardy as some of the newer varie- 
ties. 
Autumn, L— One of the best of the everbearers which have 
been receiving a great deal of attention the past few 
years. Per dozen, prepaid, $2.00. 
Haverland, L— An old-time favorite. Hardy and produc- 
tive. Berries uniform and brieht red. 
Buster, L— Plants vigorous, hardy and fairly productive. 
Fcndall, 1. — Does splendidly in some sections but is not 
adnpted to higher altitudes in Montana. 
Jucunda, P. — A great favorite in the western part of the 
state. No berry grown has a finer flavor. We recom- 
mend it heartily, but only for elevations under 4,000 feet. 
Glen Mary, P. — Does real well in Montana in the more 
favored localities, where it produces a good crop of fruit 
on plants somewhat similar to Senator Dunlap. 
Bederwood, P. — An early variety worthy of trial. Fruit a 
shade light in color, distinctive in appearance and of fair 
flavor. 
Any variety (except Autumn) 50, $1.00; 100, $1.75 
(Prepaid) . 
Not less than 25 of a kind supplied.
