TRUE-TO-NAME STRAWBERRY PLANTS 
Premier is one of the very best very early Strawberries 
EXTRA-EARLY STRAWBERRIES, continued 
and a prize-winner. It is the money-making king 
of all early varieties. Last year the Premier began 
ripening berries fully a week earlier than any other 
variety and continued to fruit heavily for more 
than four weeks. And the last picking was as good 
as the first. Another quality in which the Premier 
excels is that of a pollenizer for pistillate varieties, 
a characteristic of unusual value because of its long 
blooming season.” We have fruited this variety 
only one season, but, judging from that, we agree 
with the introducer that it is one of the most wonder¬ 
ful very early varieties that we have ever seen. 
Whether you are growing for home use, local market, 
or distant shipment, you should have some Premier. 
We intend to plant heavily for our own fruiting 
and we very strongly advise and urge all those who 
own a plot of ground, or can rent a plot, to do the 
same. Price, $5 per 1,000. 
ci. f For the home table or local market 
—I-- St. Louis is great. It is a native 
of Arkansas and, as grown here, it makes a strong, 
healthy plant, which is very productive of large 
berries, about the same shape and color as the 
Haverland. They are excellent in quality but not 
good shippers. Price, $4 per 1,000. 
Somerset. 
We fruited Somerset for the first 
time last year. The berries were of 
good quality, of uniformly large size, and firm enough 
to ship. In some sections this is very highly thought 
of as an early market berry. Our plants last year 
did not produce quite so heavily as we thought they 
should, but the berries we had were very fine and 
brought good prices. Price, $3 per 1,000. 
Wilrlwnrwl This is another early variety 
vvimwoou. suited especially for the h?me 
garden. As the name suggests, it has a delicious 
wild-strawberry flavor, and we are sure it will please 
everyone who wants early berries for the home 
garden. The berries are medium in size, bright scar¬ 
let in color, and are borne in great profusion. The 
blossoms will produce some pollen, but when planted 
beside some variety like Mitchell’s Early, St. Louis, 
or Premier, it will give a larger crop of better fruit. 
Price, $4 per 1,000. 
Campbell’s Early. 
sively in some sections of New Jersey. Those who 
have grown it are very much pleased with its 
behavior, and we would suggest that you try it out. 
Price, $5 per 1,000.
