in color, and firm enough to stand 
shipment in good shape. The blos¬ 
soms are imperfect and extremely 
hardy, which is an important point 
in some of the northern states. 
Among the very best varieties to 
plant with Haverland are Big Joe, 
Ekey, Senator Dunlap, Aroma, 
Three W’s, Longfellow, and Twil- 
ley. Haverland should be well 
mulched, as the fruit-stems are not 
able to hold the immense loads of 
berries off the ground. When given 
proper care, the bright red, juicy 
berries lie in great heaps around 
the plant. A field of Haverland 
properly cared for is a good invest¬ 
ment and we can safely say that no 
berry is more satisfactory to those 
who have tried it than the Haver¬ 
land. It is a good one to tie to.

by some growers. We have not a 
large stock of this variety this year, but think we 
have enough for those who know it best and want 
it. Its strong points are its large size, attractive 
appearance, good quality, firmness, and productive¬ 
ness. Blossoms are perfect. Plants strong, healthy 
growers. Price, 50 cts. for 25, 90 cts. for 50, $1.20

ALL BUT SIX PLANTS LIVED 
Our berries did well last season. Out of 7,500 plants 
we didn’t lose more than 5 
or 6 plants. Hope we will 
have as good luck this year 
as we had last year.—
