TIPPECANOE. One of the best growers, making a very large plant, but we have 
not fruited it, hence we cannot report production. 
The originator describes it as follows; “Quite productive for so large a variety ; hand- 
some and very large, with a bright glossy color. Flesh highly colored ; fine in flavor, and 
stands the drought much better than most varieties.” 75 cts. per doz., S4 per 100, $25 per

WALTON. (P.) From New Jersey, and is being extensively planted by commer- 
cial growers. The introducer speaks of it as follows : 
“ The plant is a very vigorous grower, with healthy foliage, and perfectly hardy ; fruit 
stalks are tall and stout, producing an enormous crop of large berries. Inclined to be ob- 
long, conical shape of good quality. Very uniform in size, and selling in preference to other 
varieties. The berries arc brilliant scarlet and handsome; good shipper and keeps well; 
medium to late. From what I know of this berry I think it has very essential points 
which constitutes a first-class berry. 
“ The Walton was awarded the first prize , as being the hest seedling strawberry, by the 
Moorestown Agricultural Society at its strawberry fair in June, 1889, in competition with 
several other seedling berries. 
“Plants of this new variety were first put upon the market by me in September, 1S89, 
and will be sold for the spring of 1890 at the following low prices : $1 per doz., $3 per 100, 
$20 per 1,000.” 
General List of Strawberries. 
Warfield No. 2. (P.) After fruiting the 
pastseason withus, we were more pleased 
with it than ever, so we cannot but give 
it its former place on the list. All things 
considered, it is of the very best. Simi- 
lar in color and some other respects to 
Wilson — being very firm — it can be ship- 
ped a long distance. In going through our 
beds this season while in bloom, we failed 
to find one plant that did not set; this can- 
not be said of many sorts. Size large; 
plant very productive. 25 cts. per doz., 
75 cts. per 100, $3.50 per 1,000, $3 per 1,000 
in 5,000 lots. 
Haverland. (P.) A native of Ohio, but 
does not lose its reputation by going into 
other states. This is the most productive 
berry on the market to-day. Size large ; 
color light; will not stand long shipments, 
but for near markets is one of the best. 
We cannot recommend the Haverland too 
highly, as it has good foliage, is a strong 
grower, and fruits abundantly. Some 
growers claim 1,000 bushels per acre for 
it; we do not make any such claims, but 
will say it will come as near to it as any 
other variety. 25 cts. per doz., $1 per 100, 
$4 per 1,000. 
Bubach No. 5. One of the best. Quite large ; 
plants very robust; color, dark green; 
has never shown signs of rust or blight. 
We fruited it this season on four different 
soils and see no diffei-ence; it did well on 
all. We can recommend it for field cul- 
ture, as well as for the garden; it is one 
of the best paying varieties. The fruit 
commands the highest prices. We think 
more of it each season. 25 cts. per doz., 
75 cts. per 100, $3.50 per 1,000. 
Gandy's Prize. Large and very late ; holds 
its fruit well from the ground. This is 
the best late berry we have growing, 
all points considered. Very firm, and 
when put upon the market, brings the 
highest market price; it is also valuable 
as a fertilizer, to use with early varieties, 
making the latter end of the crop more 
perfect. We have received five cents per 
quart more for Gandy than for other 
varieties, owing to its size, beauty and 
firmness at this late date of ripening. 25 
cts. per doz., 75 cts, per 100, $3. 50 per 1,000. 
Burt Seedling-. We value this very highly 
for growing on deep moist soil; it has 
been a good producer with us; of good 
size, very firm and productive. We do 
not hesitate to recommend it for fruiting 
for profit. 25 cts. per doz., 50 cts. per 100, 
$3 per 1,000. 
Monmouth. Early ; firm ; quality fair, but 
like many other varieties, not as produc- 
tive as we would like. Its merit lays in 
firmness, earliness and color. We think 
asmuch of itas of Jessie. 25 cts. perdoz., 
50 cts. per 100, $3 per 1,000. 
Logan. Size large to very large; color 
good and true; a good grower. We still 
think as well of it as last season ; it is one 
of the berries that attract the attention 
of the buyer, and we highly recommend 
it to our customers. 25 cts. per doz., 
75 cts. per 100, $(i per 1,000. 
Pearl. A vigorous grower; fruit very firm 
and attractive. It is claimed by many to 
be of great value, but we see no point over 
some given above, yet it is worth trial, as 
we have no fault to find, and on other soils
