EVERGREEN LODGE. 
The varieties we offer this year are all first-class. A judicious selection from 
our list will give fruit from the earliest, period of the strawberry season until late 
in the Summer. Orescent and Henderson are Rood early varieties, Bubach and 
Haverland have no equal for mid-season, and Gandy is the best late. We will 
make a selection from the following lot at$5.00 per 1000 to parties intending to plant 
largely, or will make special price on large lots upon application 
CRESCENT. 
This is beyond question a wonderful

berry. Has yielded as high as8.000 quarts 
per acre. In size it is medium to large; 
in color brilliant and handsome. 1 he 
fruit colors on all sides at once, so that 
all red berries may be gathered, a quality 
appreciated by all growers. It bears im- 
mense crops, even in weeds and grass. 
It is an "iron-clad” for the sun or rain, 
cold or heat. The great trouble with 
most growers is that they allow the ( res- 
cent to spread too much. In order to 
produce best results the rows should not 
be allowed to get over twelve to fourteen 
inches wide, and then it the plants get 
too thick in the rows, take a hoe and cut 
out some of the plants, allowing each 
plant three inches of ground. By so 
doing you will get better fruit and more 
quarts to the acre. 25 cents per dozen; 
75 cents per hundred.

in quality it is as good as Sharpless and

ut the same time, as early as the earliest, 
with a perfect blossom; and for vigor, 
hardiness and productiveness it surpas- 
ses other varieties; originated in Ken- 
tucky. The originator claims it is as 
fruit of the Lady Rusk has been shipped 
all over the northwestern states, as far 
as Winipeg. Manitoba, in perfect condi- 
tion ; the nature of the fruit after stand- 
ing for ten days or two weeks is to dry 
up. having the appearance of evaporated 
Raspberries or Blackberries, very good 
points in its favor during wet seasons at 
picking time. It does not melt down or 
rot. like other varieties, but dries up; the 
fruit is of large size, several days earlier 
than the Crescent, and is its superior m
