Ohio Boy produces immense crops (see page 17 ) 
Marshall ( Norwooc *)« A fancy old variety and 
AYidiaiia.11 known to most Strawberry-growers. 
It is one of the largest berries on the market, not 
quite so productive as some others, but its large 
size, fine quality and handsome appearance make 
it popular with those who want to produce the very 
finest fruit. It is a berry that finds a ready sale at 
top prices on any market. There have been lots of 
plants sold for Marshall that were not Marshall. 
We can assure you that our stock is exceptionally 
fine and strictly true to name. 
NEVER PLANTED 
FINER PLANTS 
I want to thank you

oiui. q Ua iity. The plants make a strong, 
healthy growth, with plenty of runners, and are 
very productive. We have picked several quarts of 
this variety, twenty-seven filling a quart basket 
heaping full. It is a good variety, and most custo¬ 
mers will be pleased with it. Season of ripening late. 
Missinnarv certa i n sections of the South, 
dd uiidi y . government authorities, as well as 
prominent growers recommend Missionary as the 
only variety that should be grown. It is a good 
standard market variety for all sections of the South. 
It is a variety that ranks with the Klondyke, and is 
preferred to that great old variety by a good many 
growers. Dealers recommend it highly on account 
of its handsome appearance in the package and its 
good shipping qualities. Succeeds everywhere. See 
illustration, page 13.

mucneii s tariy. planted in good soil> should 
be kept thinned for best results. For eating from the 
vines, after it is fully ripe, there is probably no early 
variety that is better, and until the Excelsior came 
it was the leading early berry for market as well as 
for home use. It is still very popular in many sec¬ 
tions, its high quality making it a favorite wherever 
grown. 
Npw York Many housekeepers in this country 
new 1 Uilv. f ee j t h e y canno t have a Strawberry- 
bed for the home garden unless they have some New 
York, as its quality is seldom equaled. It is very 
prolific and bears through a long season. The berries 
are large and the seeds are so near the color of the 
berries and deep-set, that they are scarcely notice- 
I able. Its excellent quality and large size make it a 
very popular Strawberry for the home 
garden and local market. 
FINE! FINE! 
The plants purchased from 
you last spring have given me 
more satisfaction than any¬ 
thing I have ever grown. I am 
simply delighted with results. 
Now picking fruit from the 
Ever-bearing Strawberry 
plants. I also notice that some 
of the new runners are in blos¬ 
som. Have given 
them good care, 
but the start in 
the nursery has 
made later success 
possible. I am 
recom mend ing 
you to all my 
friends. — A. H.
