VAN DEMAN. (P.) 
This new extra early berry only fruited on Spring set plants in our beds. The Van Deman had more rine 
■» berries than any other kind, and they certainly were beauties Though there 
were no extra large berries, every one was of a good size, of a beautiful gloss v 
red color, almost unequalled for brilliant effect as they appeared among the 
strong green leaves When we add that the plant is quite productive prob- 
ably exceeding all the extra early varieties in this respect, and that the berry 
is decidedly firm, and ripens all its fruit in a very short time, we think we 
have described the coming early market berry. This description is fully sus- 
tamed by the bulletins of at least half a dozen foremost State Experiment 
Stations, which have given Van Deman a thorough and careful trial for several 
seasons .

Young, the originator, hardiness is ottepf its strong points. It seems to be nearly equal to the pistillate varie- 
ties in this respect. rite Enhance has been on trial at the Station a sufficient length of time^to warrant the 
= °" i5 at ( , ,t h** decided merits as a pollenizer and market variety. The plants are Very vigorous and 
almost perfectly healthy, and but little inferior to the best pistillate sorts in productiveness It is strictly a 
"sort, however, as it is too acid and ill-shaped to suit amateurs. Market-growers generally ought to give 
26 cents per dozen, $1 per 100, $5 per 1,000. 
FLORENCE (Clara). 
Originated in Cuyahoga county, Ohio. It is a beautiful bright red, resembling the old Wilson in shape but 
a blighter red, and holds its color well after being picked, averaging half as ^ ’ 
large again. Its fruit is borne on large, strong fruit trusses, holding the ber- 
ries well up from the ground, keeping them clean. It is an excellent runner 
and a good shipper, equaling the old Wilson. Its beautiful, attractive ap- 
pearance finds it a ready sale. Its season is medium to late, with a perfect 
blossom. 
50 cents per dozen, $1.50 per 100,

let, very attractive. It is valuable for home garden, the fruit being of the best 
quality, free from disease and enduring neglect.
