The word "Aroma" refers to fragrance, 
an agreeable odor, a spicy taste. This is 
why this most excellent variety of strawberry 
is called "Aroma", and it is also why it is 
rightly named. One case of Aroma berries 
in a carload will aromatize the entire carload 
of berries, and the moment the car is opened 
one would know there were Aroma berries 
somewhere in the car. In quality this vari- 
ety is one of the very best, and is considered 
a very high class berry on all markets. It 
has the firmness to make it one of the very 
best shippers. Its clean, healthy foliage 
and plant, and its abundance of berries make 
it a favorite among those who grow it. Its 
aromatic qualities secure for the berry the 
top market prices. 
This is the one variety that comes nearer 
being suited to all localities than any other 
variety known, as it flourishes and does well 
in the North and in the South. It is espec- 
ially adapted to that section of the country 
where the North and the South meet. For 
several hundred miles north and south of 
Mason & Dixon's line it flourishes to such 
an extent that many growers have discarded 
all other varieties, and grow this splendid vari- 
ety exclusively. By growing this variety 
you will al ays have berries that sell for the 
best market price. 
Klondike 
Klondike (Per.) — So named by reason of its 
great yield and gold-producing qualities. 
We still find Klondike the most popular 
of all southern strawberries. It is one of 
the best that can be grown, and is wonder- 
fully prolific wherever berries grow, and 
especially desirable in the South for market 
purposes. It is a good shipper, good size, 
of good color and sells at a better price 
than any other variety that enters the 
market during its ripening season. Grow- 
ers are especially enthusiastic, and com- 
mend it from the dollar and cent side of 
the question. It is a very showy berry, 
and the fruit is of the very best quality. 
Its unusual firmness makes it a most ex- 
cellent shipper. Uniform in size from one 
end of the season to the other, with no 
small berries at the end of its season. 
Grown under hill culture it will produce 
four or five crops in a single season. Ripe 
berries in sight all the time. Foliage 
heavy, dark green, rustless and rank, long 
stems, but the heavy foliage protects the 
blossoms from possible frost. Other vari- 
eties have been known to be killed by frost 
by the side of Klondike while Klondike 
was not harmed. This feature is of great 
importance to a grower, whether he be a 
large grower or just a home grower. Cer- 
tainly a home grower should not plant a 
variety that frosts kill easily. 
Early Ozark 
Gandy (Per.) — The Gandy comes as near 
standing alone as a superior berry for the 
late market as any grown. It has more 
than ordinary firmness, and as a shipper 
it certainly has no superior. Plants are 
strong, healthy and good growers. Its 
color is bright red, has smooth surface, 
dark red seeds, and is of delicious flavor. 
If a soil were to be recommended a heavy 
clay soil or bottom land would be suggest- 
ed. Will keep in good condition on the 
vines after ripening longer than most any 
other variety. It does best when some 
other late variety is planted with it. The 
Aroma is recommended for this. 
Early Ozark (Per.) — Originated in the moun- 
tains of Ozark, Missouri, several years ago. 
Following is the originator's description:
