TO LOVERS OF STRAWBERRIES. 
We are in position to otter you tlie largest and most profit- 
able collection to the grower, and one that should he tried 
hy all. While there are a great many varieties on the mar- 
ket, yet there are none with such a reputation as the Big 6, 
also the Big 3. We will combine them and make it the 
Big 9, or you can order either collection. Price and quality 
considered, this is the greatest otter yet made to any person 
interested in strawberry culture. 
MARSHALL STRAWBERRY. 
The following is what the originator has to say of this 
wonderful berry; “ Three thousand baskets of berries picked 
from one-third of an 
acre last season. The 
berries are very large, 
fourteen filling a bas- 
ket. Color very dark 
crimson throughout: 
fine ttavor, fine grain, 
very good keeper, with 
aroma of the native 
wild strawberry, from 
which it is supposed to 
have sprung. It is un- 
doubtedly the finest 
variety ever grown in 
in this country. The 
plants are veiy strong and vigorous ; the foliage very 
healthy, and thick enough to protect the blossoms from 
late frosts. This is truly a variety of great promise.”
