ALFRED —The Mammoth New Blackberry—Practically Coreless 
HIGHEST QUALITY—LARGE JET BLACK BERRIES—EXCEEDINGLY PRODUCTIVE 
These are a few characteristics of the New Alfred Blackberry. This New Variety is taking first place in 
the plantings of the best commercial growers, producing larger crops of finer fruit than Eldorado, Blower and 
the other old reliable kinds. 
For the Home Garden, Alfred is the ideal Blackberry. Think of a bush loaded with tremendously big jetty 
Blackberries from 1% to 1% inches long, practically free from seeds, coreless and with a pulp fairly burst¬ 
ing with juice. That’s Alfred. Price of heavy plants* $1.25 per dozen, postpaid; $3.00 per 10O; $22.50 
per 1000. 
150 bushels of '‘Scarff’s Fruiting Strain 
Early Harvest" from one acre sold as 
high as $4.00 per crate. The earliest to ripen and the most productive 
of the early sorts. There are a number of different strains of Early 
Harvest Blackberries, all alike in appearance of wood and growth, 
but vastly different in productiveness. We noticed this peculiarity 
soon after its introduction, and have, by careful system of selec¬ 
tion, selected a strain that is simply marvelous for great 
yields of luscious fruit. We have not only increased the 
productiveness, but size as well, and now 
have an early variety that cannot be ex¬ 
celled, as it ripens so early that it always 
sells at enormous prices. Price, Scarff’s 
Fruiting Strain Early Harvest $1.00 per 
dozen, postpaid; $2.50 per 100; $9.00 per 
500; $16.00 per 1000. 
ELDORADO 
This is one of the 
most valuable varie¬ 
ties for market and home use. It is a 
strong, upright grower and the fruit is jet 
black, never coloring red after picking; 
fully as large again as the average Snyder 
berry. The flavor is excellent, imparting a 
rich aroma, melting and juicy with but little 
core. Highly recommended everywhere. 
Eldorado is unquestionably one of the 
best commercial blackberries grown. Price, 
$1.00 per doz., postpaid; $2.50 per 100; 
$10.00 per 500; $17.50 per 1000. 
BLOWER The Blower has been an 
outstanding favorite among 
fruit growers for several years. It is de¬ 
serving of this high esteem for several rea¬ 
sons, namely; it produces very large fruit 
almost the size of Dewberries; berries are 
jet black color and delicious flavor. Blower 
is one of the most productive varieties in 
cultivation, begins ripening in July and 
continues until September. It always sells 
for highest market price. If you do not 
have this valuable variety we hope you 
will try it. This variety is very popular 
among New York growers. Price, $1.00 
per dozen, postpaid; $2.50 per 10O; $17.50 
per 1000.
