REID’S NURSERIES, UPLAND, OHIO 
NICK OHMER. 
The following is the introducer's description of this new berry. We believe it to be all that is claimed for it: 
"Originated by Mr. John F. Beaver, who is conceded to be the most successful amateur fruit-grower in Ohio. 
Named after Mr. N. Ohraer, ex-president of the Ohio State Horticultural 
Society. After watching the Nick Ohraer three years, and hearing how 
it has behaved wherever 1 have sent it for trial, never having received 
one unfavorable report on it, I am confident that it is one of the most de- 
sirable, if not the very best Strawberry ever sent out. There Is no other 
In the market, or in sight, that I would plant with so much confi- 
dence. If restricted to a single variety, it would be my first choice 
without a moment’s hesitation. 
"The plant is very large and stocky, sending out plenty of very 
strong runners. It is probably not surpassed in healthy, vigorous growth 
and great productiveness by any variety. It has a perfect 
blossom. The fruit is of the very largest size, a giant among 
Strawberries. It Is never misshapen. Its only departure 
from the regular roundish conical form is when, under high 
culture, it is somewhat triangular. It is dark, glossy red, 
firm and of excellent flavor.” Price, 25 cts. per doz., $1.50 per 
100, $8 per 1,000. 
GLEN MARY. 
In productiveness this berry surpasses the Crescent, not in 
number of berries, but 
Nick Ohmer. 
Glen Mary. 
number of quarts. 
Mr. Ingram had one 
quart of select berries 
photographed, which 
contained only twelve 
of the Glen Mary. As to its immense size The Rural New- 
Yorker speaks as follows: "Glen Mary, received from E. T. 
Ingram, April, 1894. Imperfect bi-sexual. June 7, 1895, largest 
ripe berries up to date. Good shape for so large a berry. June 9, 
berries very large, firm enough for a near market; about the shape 
of Sharpless. June 11, large to very large. June 14, a larger 
yield of largo berries of good form, broad heart-shaped, often 
widening at the tip; one of the most promising of later trials. 
June 17, past its best. June 18, still bearing a good many berries, 
which hold their size unusually well. June 21, still bearing. 
Many of the berries are of largest size.” On the originator’s 
grounds last season one-quartet* of an acre was picked at the rate 
of 1,280 quarts per acre at a single picking, and over 12,000 during 
the season. The Glen Mary began to ripen at its home in Chester 
county, Pa., last season, May 28, and the claim seems warranted 
that it is capable of producing big berries all through the 
fruiting season. Price, 25c. per doz.. 75c. per 100, $4 per 1,000. 
CLYDE. 
This new berry seems to be gaining great favor wherever known. With us it is as large as Bubach, nearly 
or quite a week earlier and very much firmer. It is a strong staminate, and therefore is suitable for polleniz- 
ing medium and medium early pistillate varieties. The plant is very vigorous and healthy, there being no trace 
of disease about It that we have ever seen. Season of ripening medium early. It is a dark scarlet in color, and 
very productive. Its strong plants, with an abundance of long roots, which penetrate the soil deeper than most 
varieties, enable it to withstand drought remarkably well. Price, 25 cts. per doz., 75 cts. per 100, $4 per 1,000, 
HALL’S FAVORITE. 
"Plant very strong-growing, with foliage heavy enough and thick enough to protect blossoms from frost and 
for mulch in winter. I have seen the vines stand 12 to 18 inches high on ordinary land, and, upon opening the 
vines, found as fine fruit as any one would wish to see. The season of ripening is from early to medium, and the 
whole crop ripens in a very short time. The berries are large, perfectly formed, of uniform shape, coloring 
evenly to deep, rich crimson, equal to the best in quality. They present a beautiful sight when crated; also keep, 
ship and sell well. The plant is a heavy cropper, even in old beds of ordinary soil. It is better in quality than 
Bubach by far, and as a grower the Bubach is no comparison.” Price, 25 cts. per doz., 75 cts. per 100, $4 per 1,000.
