DAVID KNIGHT & SON, SAWYER, MICHIGAN 
Premier 
Howard No. 17 (Per.) 
We have discarded nearly all other early varieties 
because Premier is so superior to them, not only 
here but in every other section of the country where 
Strawberries are grown. Some of the outstanding 
characteristics of Premier are: Handsome, glossy 
rich red color; size large to very large and beau¬ 
tifully uniform and symmetrical in shape; quality 
delicious, unsurpassed by any other variety. Very 
firm, making it an excellent shipping berry. Im¬ 
mensely productive. No variety will yield more fruit 
to the acre, as it ripens early and continues through 
a long season. As frost-resistant as a berry can be. 
Makes a good growth of strong, healthy plants which 
produce good crops when less sturdy sorts fail. 
Should have good soil and care but will do well on 
any soil in any climate. We had the opportunity to 
be on several of the large markets when berries were 
being brought in and sold last season and there was 
scarcely a day that Premier did not bring a premium of from 
50c to $1.00 per crate over most other varieties. Premier and 
Howard No. 17 are very similar if not identical, although the 
variety was first introduced under the latter name. You can 
order either Premier or Howard No. 17 with the assurance 
that you will receive the best early Strawberry ever known.

Knight’s Wonderful Midseason 
Gibson (Per.) 
Has Made More Money for Fruit Growers Than Any Other 
Variety Ever Grown. 
No better midseason Strawberry has ever been grown than 
Gibson. It was our privilege to introduce this variety about 
fifteen years ago and we have always considered it one of our 
greatest achievements. Gibson will grow and produce won¬ 
derful fruit over a wider area of country and more diversified 
soil and weather conditions than any other Strawberry we 
know. Canning factories, as 
well as the housewife, prefer it 
on account of its beautiful dark 
red color, large size and excel¬ 
lent quality, and it daily receives 
a higher price in the market. 
Whether you are growing only 
a small patch in your garden or 
several acres for commercial purposes, you should plant 
heavily of Gibson for, in its season, it will give you more and 
better berries than any other variety. We supply hundreds of 
thousands of Gibson plants to our customers every season 
and the fact that they are so 
largely and widely grown is 
proof of their value. We have 
a large and excellent supply 
of Gibson plants this season, 
carefully grown, healthy, true 
to name and priced right. Let 
us have your order. Price on
