and holds its size well to the end of the sea- 
son. Plants very vigorous, and one of the best 
for home use and nearby market. 
Ilrtverland (P). — A fine grower, very produc- 
tive; one of the best of the leading early mar- 
ket sorts. Perries uniform, long, medium size, 
and good quality. 
Pm*omoke. — The berry is round, conical, and 
resembles the old Wilson, but is much larger, 
and one of the best varieties in existence, not 
only for Its enormous productiveness, but on 
account of its beauty. Adapted to all soils. 
Its large size, deep red color, firmness and high 
flavor make it one of the most profitable ship- 
per.s. 
Senator Dunlap. — A well tested, wonderfully 
productive variety, one of the safe sorts to 
plant everywhere and sure to take a high place 
among the prominent standard sorts, plant re- 
sembles Warfield, rampant runner, should be 
restricted in its production of plants: fully 
equal to Crescent and Warfield in its ability to 
succeed under all circumstances. Fruit good 
size, regular form, beautiful bright red, glossy, 
firm, splendid keeper and shipper, excellent 
quality, one of the best for canning. Ripens 
early, and continues a long time. It promises 
to stand at the head In its wonderful ability 
to ripen a good crop under almost any con- 
dition of drouth or neglect. 
Sample (P). — One of the very best berries, 
and it seems to succeed nearly everywhere. 
Plants strong, large and healthy, producing in 
profusion large, dark colored berries, of uni- 
form size and color. Firm enough to ship well, 
one of the best standard sorts for home use 
and market. Season, late. 
Tennessee Prolific. — One of the good medium 
early varieties. I.,arge size and productive. It 
is a very vigorous healthy plant, with never 
a spot of rust. It has a strong staminate blos- 
som. and is especially valuable as a pollenizer. 
I’nele .lini. — A new variety of much worth. 
The Uncle Jim resembles the New York, Mar- 
shall. and varieties of that class; but in quality, 
firmness and productiveness It is head and 
shoulders above them all. I'nlike many berries 
of somewhat similar type it has a red flesh 
when fully ripe, and Is a good canner on that 
account, as well as for Its firmness and su- 
perior quality. It is wonderfully productive, 
and the fruit Is large. The fruit stalks are ex- 
ceedingly stout; but when borne down the ber- 
ries do not lie and rot on the underside, like 
some large sorts, before they are ripe enough to 
pick. They are firm, and will bear handling 
equal to the Gandy. It begins to ripen a long 
time before the Gandy, hut lasts about as long. 
It is pre-eminently a variety for the home gar- 
den. where highest quality is desired with lots 
of fruit for the amount of space. 
(iianily. — This Is one of the leading late vari- 
eties with fruit growers all over the country. 
The plant is a strong grower, fruit is large and 
firm, but does not yield as heavy as some; re- 
quires strong soil and fertilizers to do its best. 
It always brings top prices; it is very late and a 
big showy berry. 
Brandywine. — This fine late strawberry was 
Introduced by M. Crawford. Is late, good shape, 
good quality, good size, firm and productive. 
If you are looking for a No. 1 canning berry or 
for table use we would recommend Brandywine. 
It is extra dark in color, fine flavor, and Is an 
extra good home use and canning berry, besides 
l>eing a good shipper and profitable market va- 
riety. Try them. We have a good stock of ex- 
tra fine plants. 
WuHIeld (P).— Its great beauty, firmness 
and earliness, good flavor, productiveness, and 
vigor, makes it especially popular. Ripens 
with Senator Dunlap, which makes a good fer- 
tilizer to plant with it, as the shape and color 
of the berries are the same, and look a great 
deal alike when picked together. 
Wm. Belt. — A large, handsome, productive 
berry for market or home use. Vigorous, thrifty, 
heavy plants, producing large crops under good 
common matted row culture. Rerrles extra 
large, conical, quite uniform In shape, bright 
<*rlmson red. ripens all over without green tips; 
good (juality. carries well to market, and brings 
highest price. One of the best late varieties. 
Making it one of the best perfect flowering va- 
rieties to fertilize late pistillate varieties, such 
as Sample and Hubach. 
Myers Seedling. — Originated on R. I. Myers’ 
farm south of Si. Joseph. Mich. The plant is 
a good grower; berry is large size, productive 
and one of the best shippers; medium early and 
brings be.st prices on the market.
