center. double. 
King of the Belgians. Bluish gray. Profuse Mrs. Frank Penn. Deep rich pink. Glorious 
bloomer. trusses. 
Namur. Soft pink. Lovely for cutting. Saturn. Light blue. A glorified Climax.

ites of mine, I will send one plant of each of above six 
kinds for $2.50. When writing, please refer to G. M.

Extra-fine healthy vigorous plants. Will produce a full crop of luscious strawberries next 
June if you plant in August — the sooner the better. Why wait two years ? 100 plants will

so little space. All standard varieties, $6 per 100. Our new Hybrid Strawberry , Buckbee , 
the latest and finest evolution in Strawberries, is without a rival for size, color, flavor, and 
productiveness. $5 per dozen. $35 per 100. (Customers pay transit). Early orders as- 
sure strongest plants.
