CHESAPEAKE. 
This is a large, handsome berry that, as soon as it becomes known, is going 
to take the place of Gandy with a great many growers. It is better than Gandy 
in every respect; superior to it in color, quality, and firmness; also superior, 
inasmuch as it will grow and produce a good crop on soil that will not produce 
Gandy. This is one of the prize berries for which I paid One Hundred Dollars 
($100.00) in gold for one dozen plants. The Chesapeake is as late as Gandy, 
more productive on lighter soils, and equal to it on Gandy soil. Its shipping 
quality far excels that popular standard variety, and in eating quality there is 
no comparison, as in this respect it equals such varieties as Wm. Belt, Brunette, 
and others of that class. The plant is a strong, upright grower, with thick 
leathery and very dark green foliage, leaves almost round and entirely free from 
rust. The stems or fruit stalks are usually strong, holding almost the entire 
crop from the ground. I believe as soon as the Chesapeake becomes known it 
will be one of the most popular varieties ever sent out, whether grown for 
home use or for market. The health and vigor of the plants is extraordinary, 
standing out prominently and distinguished looking among most other varieties. 
I am so positive of the value of this berry that I set every plant that I 
could procure of it last season, except what I sold at $15.00 per 100 ; the result 
is that I have a fine stock of plants this year, and hope to have enough to go 
around even at the very low price of $10.00 per 1000, which will enable every 
grower to get a good supply. 
The illustration was taken from the berries themselves, and is an excellent 
likeness. To be fully appreciated, the Chesapeake must be seen and sampled, 
as no illustration can do it full justice. 
The price of plants for 1907 will be 50 cents per dozen; $2.00 per 100 by mail post¬ 
paid. $1.75 per 100; $6.00 per 500; $10.00 per 1000, and $40.00 per 5000 by express, 
receiver to pay charges. 
GOOD LUCK. 
This is a new prize winner that I am offering this season for the first time. 
It took second prize in 1904 contest over more than one hundred competitors. 
The plants are rank and healthy, making long drouth resisting roots. The 
berries as can be seen from colored print are simply beautiful, and they are as 
good as they look; firm enough to be a good shipping berry, and good enough 
to present to your best friends. I have not the slightest doubt that those who 
invest in this variety this season will indeed consider themselves in Good Duck 
as the name implies You will certainly be in Good Duck to be one of the first 
to get this variety. It is large and handsome, of a blood red color, with no 
green tips and very productive. In season it is three or four days-earlier than 
the Gandy and Chesapeake. I have a good supply of plants this season. 
1 am pleased to offer them at $1.00 per dozen; $5.00 per 100 by mail postpaid. 
$5.00 per 100; $22.50 per 500, and $40.00 per 1000 by express, receiver to pay charges.
