Basket of Everbearing 
Strawberries — Progressive. 
Giiiuly. Large and firm berries, of uniform 
size and shape. On heavy, rich loams the plant 
is a marvel of vigor and fruitfulness. The best 
shipping, long-keeping strawberry, as late as 
the latest of well-tested sorts. 
Ararsliall. Berries are beautiful and average 
very large. Invariably captures the prize 
wherever exhibited. Although of great size, 
the fruit is rarely ever misshapen. Color is a 
rich glossy crimson. It will not yield as large 
a number of berries as some varieties, but 
when measured in quarts or bushels, will be 
above the average. The plant is faultless, a 
strong grower, often standing 20 to 22 inches 
high, rooting deeply and standing drought well. 
The large, luxuriant foliage is sufficient to pro- 
tect the blossom from late frosts. 
■Sample. I’. An old variety that has scored 
such success in many places that no progress- 
ive grower can afford not to plant it. The 
successful man is he who tests all really prom- 
ising varieties and quickly finds those the most 
perfectly suited to his own soil, climate, etc. 
Steven’s Late Champion. One of the best 
and most popular late varieties grown. Makes 
.strong, vigorous plants which produce an 
abundance of fruit. Sends out a great many 
runners that take root quickly and cover the 
ground if not restrained. Fruit and blossoms 
well protected by abundance of foliage. Fruit 
large, long, slightly flattened. Color is a deep 
red. the flesh being also red. It ripens all over 
and is very firm, holding up well after picking. 
Fall or Everbearing Strawberries 
I’i'ogrcssive. A genuine everbearer. We con- 
sider the best of everbearers. Fruit of medium 
size, dark red and extra quality. Young plants 
begin to bear about four weeks from setting; 
but to obtain good plant beds the blossoms 
should be kept cut off. especially during the 
early part of the season. 
.Superb. Another of the fall-bearers. Plants 
do not produce fruit the first season. The sec- 
ond season it produces fruit the same as any 
other variety and in the fall gives a full crop. 
Fruit is large, dark red; good quality. 
STU.VWBKHKIKS — ( oiitimicd. 
Medium 
Will. Belt. The standard for 
quality wherever known. For 
fancy market or home table it 
is indispensable. 
Btibach. P. A sterling old 
sort that combines many excel- 
lent qualities; great and uni- 
form size, rich color and 
quality, extraordinary vig- 
or and fruitfulness, fine 
foliage that endures 
the hottest suns. 
Early to medium. 
Boriian. or Vnclc 
Jim. A western 
strawberry that is 
attracting much at- 
tention for its su- 
perior merits. Plants 
robust, with large, 
healthy foliage. A 
remarkable drought 
resister and a reli- 
able producer of 
extra large berries 
of a bright red color 
and of high quality. 
Glen Mary. One 
of the best, if ex- 
traordinarily large 
size is wanted; good 
quality and heavy 
cropper. Cannot be 
surpassed for home garden and nearby mar- 
kets. Berries broadly heart-shaped; color 
dark, glossy crimson; fairly firm and excel- 
lent quality; plant strong and healthy. 
Havcriand. P. An old standard variety. 
Does well everywhere. Neither rusts nor 
shows blight. Is enormously productive. 
Should be mulched, as the fruit stems are not 
able to hold the fruit off the ground. Berries 
long and conical. 
Jessie. Under right conditions is one of the 
most sati.sfactory varieties produced by com- 
mercial growers. Extra heavy yielder of high 
quality fruit and a good pollenizer. 
New York. Originated in the State of New 
York by Miss Yates. Berries are strictly fancy; 
large, bright red color; excellent quality; very 
productive. Seedling of Bubach and Jessie. 
Nick Ohmer. Medium late; a strong, perfect 
blossom and productive of rich, dark red ber- 
ries, colored all the way through; flavor deli- 
cious; berries nearly round; a good shipper, and 
suitable for fancy trade and table use. 
I’arsoii's Beauty. A new early berry; sym- 
metrical and handsome in appearance; dark 
red color; foliage strong, rank, spotless and free 
from rust; heavy bearer; good market variety. 
Senator Dunlap. This variety is recommend- 
ed for the average person who wishes to grow 
.strawberries and has had little experience. It 
is a very vigorous grower and the berries are 
of good flavor, good canners and excellent ship- 
pers. If given only ordinary care the yield 
will be large and the quality of fruit fair. If 
the runners are thinned and high culture is 
given, some of the finest fruit possible to grow 
can be produced on this variety. 
Wilson. An old standard variety. Very pro- 
ductive of medium large berries of good qual- 
ity. Good maker of large plants. 
Late 
Brandywine. One of the reliable fruiting 
sorts that can be depended on for heavy 
crops on a variety of soils. Berries very large, 
broadly heart-shaped, bright red to the center; 
firmly fleshed and finely flavored.
