Gold Mine. Prodaces an abundance of strong, healthy fol¬ 
iage. The plants are very productive and the berries are beau 
ties. They are large, bright red in color, with a handsome bright 
green cap, which makes them very attractive. The quality is 
very good. The fruit is similar to Big Joe in many ways. We 
have quite a few of them this year and they were one of our best 
money-makers, mostly because of their productiveness and the 
high price which they commanded. Price, $10.00 per 1,000. 
HAVERLAND. A very popular standard. This fruit is oi 
large size, i ather light in color and firm enough to stand shipment 
in good sh\ pe. Blossoms are imperfect and exceedingly hardy, 
making it \ *y desirable where late frosts are likely. Dunlap, 
Big Joe, Eke., and Magic Gem are all good to pollenize Haver- 
land. The plants should be well mulched, as the fruit stems are 
not able to hold the immense loads of berries off the ground. 
Price, $8.00 per 1,000. See illustration, page 16. 
LUPTON. One of the largest and most handsome berries 
we have ever seen. The plant is a vigorous grower and produces 
strong, healthy foliage. They are very productive, and as 
stated above, the berries are beautiful—they are uniformly 
large, bright red in color, with a large green cap which makes 
them doubly attractive. The quality is poor, but the berries 
are firm and will carry as well as any variety we have ever seen, 
not even excepting Klondyke and Twilley. On the large markets 
the appearance of berries is more important than quality —this 
being true, we believe the Lupton, by reason of its large size, 
handsome appearance and excellent shipping qualities, is de 
stined to be one of the best money-making strawberries on oui 
list. It is sold at the station for the highest price of any berries 
we had last year. Will sell in wholesale market with Chesapeake, 
is easier to grow and will yield more quarts than Chesapeake. 
Growers who ship fancy berries, try Lupton. Price, $10.00 pei 
1,000. See illustration, page 20. 
Magic Gem. A vigorous grower with leaves and stems very 
thick and tough, which makes it most resistant to insects and di 
seases. The berries are borne in great abundance and are very 
large in size, with a large, green cap and bright yellow seeds, mak 
ing them very attractive. Price $8.00 per 1,000 
New York. Vigorous grower. Quite productive of large 
dark red berries. It is the sweetest berry we grow and very pop¬ 
ular for home garden planting. Price $10.00 per 1,000. 
Chesapeake—None Better.
