PREMIER 
PREMIER were first put on the market in 
1915 and plants of this fine variety spread 
over the country like wild-fire. It is a berry 
without a fault and with perfect satisfaction 
wherever grown. 
One week earlier than any other variety 
in most localities. With us last year the 
Clermont Variety was the first Strawberry 
ripe. The Premier berry in Medium dark, 
large size, above the average and very firm. 
Solid color, bright and glossy. They are 
beauties in a quart box. This famous variety 
is practically frost proof. Has a record of 
728 16 Qt. cases per acre. Under natural 
conditions over $1,000.00 can be made from 
an acre of Premier. This cannot be done 
from any other farm crop. 
Premier may be grown in any part of the 
country. A profit-making commercial Strawberry and a world-wide favorite of proven success. 
Actually more Premier plants have been sold the last few years than any other variety. Growers 
know the value of Premier and the consumers demand it. It is a mortgage lifter for any grower. 
Plant our original heavy fruiting strain, 100% true. This means a lot at fruiting time. Our 
PREMIER are all certified plants by the State of Michigan. Plant this variety on the best ground 
that you have. Your profits will be 100% greater than the cost of the plants. Make your plans

FAIRFAX 
Fairfax was also introduced by the U. S. 
Department of Agriculture. Parentage prob¬ 
ably from Premier. Fruit stalks are strong 
and upstanding. Fruit matures in clusters. 
Size very large. The Fairfax has the rich¬ 
est flavor and is very sweet. Flesh dark 
red, juicy. Dessert quality very high. Good 
shipper. Medium early. Fairfax will not 
make as many runner plants as Dorsett. 
But makes a good fruiting row. With us last year Clermont and Fairfax had a few more cases 
of berries per acre than Dorsett. With us it fruited 100 per cent. We are more than pleased. 
We find Fairfax very disease resistant. So you can take your pick from whatever variety you 
may choose, you can not select a poor Strawberry from this catalog. In our 18 years of Straw¬ 
berry growng and with over 25,000 customers we soon hear if a variety is poor in general the 
country over. Still sometimes one variety will do better on some soil than another. This is also 
true to climate. We try to grow the best and discard the rest. We have discarded the Washing¬ 
ton, and Redgold, as our tests show other varieties are better. By all means plant FAIRFAX 
this spring. They appeal to any buyer in the market for Fancy Strawberries. Protect yourself.
