Amanda, the largest berry we grow 
Mid-season Strawberries 
Amanda. 
This is the largest berry that we 
have. In fruiting season you can 
easily find berries twenty-one of which will fill a 
quart-basket. The plants are vigorous, healthy, 
large and upright in growth. Blossoms are perfect. 
The fruit is of very large size, dark red in color, and 
of good quality. It is one of 
the most productive varieties 
we have and growers wishing 
extra-large, good-quality berries, 
should plant some Amanda. 
Price, $5 per i ,000. 
Abington. 
This variety 
is a vigorous 
grower and quite 
productive of large, 
firm berries. Fruit 
is well colored, 
good enough for 
the home table, and 
firm enough to ship. 
It ripens in mid¬ 
season and has per¬ 
fect blossoms. It 
is always good and 
seems to be im¬ 
proving with age. 
Price, $3.50 per 
I ,000. 
Rradlev This is a good variety and exceed- 
mauicy* ingly productive. Large in size and 
firm enough to make a good shipping berry. The 
blossoms are perfect and the berries are of good 
color, uniformly conical in shape. It has yielded 
for us on thin land over 5,000 quarts per acre without 
fertilization. Price, $3.50 per 1,000. 
MTRfAr'H (Colossus). A fancy market berry 
DUDHUn that sells for a price above the 
average. This grand old variety has been on the 
market for over thirty years and does not seem to 
have lost any of its original vigor. We have heard 
some complaint about its not making enough plants, 
but our land seems peculiarly adapted to it and we 
seldom have any trouble in getting all the beds 
that could be desired. We believe our strain of this 
variety is as good as the original stock was thirty 
years ago. One customer says that his Bubach were 
by far the finest Strawberries and brought the best 
price in his market. Another says he^ has never 
seen its equal. The illustration will give you an 
idea of what an attractive display it makes in the 
crates. The blossoms of Bubach are imperfect and 
among the best varieties to plant with it are Big 
Joe, Senator Dunlap, Ekey, Gold Dollar, and 
Twilley. This variety is especially popular in the 
North, and if you have not already grown it, it would 
pay you to do so. It is an old standard that can be 
depended on to give a big crop of large berries 
which bring a top-notch price on any market. 
Price, $3.50 per 1,000.
