Klondyke. A gold nugget for the southern grower 
MEDIUM-EARLY STRAWBERRIES, continued 
Early Woodrow. } Vc f [ ui ‘ ed thi . s last v ear 
■--- for the first time and it 
proved to be quite productive. The berries are large 
in size, highly colored, and exceedingly firm. We 
advise our customers to get a few plants of this 
variety and try it out. Wherever it succeeds we 
believe it will make a great shipping berry. The 
introducer claims that it brought a premium over 
all other early varieties and that in an actual test, 
side by side with Klondyke, it kept longer in perfect 
condition. We consider Early Woodrow worthy of 
trial. Price, $3.50 per 1,000. 
Ewell’s Early. Almost as ear ly as Excelsior 
—-— -— with somewhat larger fruit. 
It is immensely productive and has large green caps 
and a brilliant color that are most attractive. One 
of our customers in Ohio, who has tested out over a 
hundred varieties, says that Ewell’s Early has not 
had a square deal and deserves to be grown more 
generally. Price, $3 per 1,000. 
GOLD DOLLAR. Aft ? r ha f ving fruit ? d this 
—- variety tor several years 
we are highly pleased with it. The plant is a strong, 
healthy grower and produces a very heavy crop of 
fruit. The berries are of good size, highly colored, 
and perfect in shape. It has perfect blossoms, every 
one of which matures a good berry. They have 
bright green caps of medium size, which with their 
unusual uniformity and perfect shape make them 
most attractive in the package. In firmness Gold 
Dollar is the equal of Excelsior and will stand ship¬ 
ment to distant markets. We predict that it will 
be quite widely grown. Price, $4 per 1,000. 
James E. Produces a good crop of large, highly 
-1 colored, good-quality berries that 
are very attractive in appearance. It originated in 
Virginia and is grown extensively there for nearby 
markets. Price, $3.50 per 1,000. 
KLONDYKE. P° ss j bI y , excepting Senator 
- Dunlap, this is the most widely 
grown variety in 
the United 
States. Hun¬ 
dreds and hun¬ 
dreds of acres 
are planted 
throughout the 
South. It is one 
of the best ship¬ 
pers and will 
carry almost 
any distance. It 
demands top 
prices in the 
market and 
often brings a 
premium over 
other varieties, 
which show up 
better in the 
field. This is 
due to its good 
carrying quali¬ 
ties and to the 
fact that the 
berries ripen 
evenly and are 
uniform in size.
