Strawberries 
PREMIER (Early) 
THE MOST POPULAR BERRY —No strawberry in recent years lias gained the pop¬ 
ularity that has come to Premier. It has given more general satisfaction than any 
variety ever introduced—as a market berry it has outclassed all others, though not 
so well suited for long distance shipping as some other varieties. 
When you come to earliness, size, shape, attractiveness, and quality it is hard to 
beat. 
One essential in having a big crop of berries is to have good healthy foliage, 
without this no variety can produce a good crop. You will find the foliage on Premier 
just as green at the end of the picking season as at the beginning. 
If Premier has any fault it is this: Many have difficulty in getting sufficient 
plants to make a wide row. They should be planted very early to overcome this dif¬ 
ficulty. 
We have a large acreage of Premier plants and you will make no mistake in 
planting liberally of this variety. 
PRICE: 25 for 30c; 100 for 65c; 1,000 for $4.00. 
SENATOR DUNLAP (Mid-Season) 
THE DARK COLORED BERRY —Senator Dunlap has been a household word for 
many years. It is referred to as “That dark red berry .” It is not, however, planted 
so extensively as it was a few years ago, but when it comes to quality and color no 
other berry can equal it. 
Those who wish to grow berries for use in the home can find nothing that equals 
Dunlap. 
The fault with this variety is that it is too productive of plants and in dry weather 
the berries have a tendency to become small as the season advances. 
The plants should be planted much farther apart than such varieties as Premier, 
Cooper and Gibson, and the rows kept narrowed down by cutting off the new plants 
after the row is of sufficient width. 
If you have never grown strawberries try Dunlap. You can not fail with them. 
We have a fine stock of plants of this variety. 
PRICE: 25 for 25c; 100 for 50c; 1,000 for $2.75. 
GIBSON (Mid-Season) 
THE HEAVIEST ROOTED PLANT —Gibson is another of the old favorites. They 
make a wide row of dark green plants, the leaves look like they had been varnished. 
The berries are very large, handsome in appearance and very sweet. They are valuable 
for canning and preserving. The berries grow on very short stems, and should be 
mulched with straw so they may be kept clean. 
No plant produces such long roots as Gibson, and they can be planted very late 
and will produce a fine fruiting row. They do exceptionally well on heavy ground. 
PRICE: 25 for 25c; 100 for 65c; 1,000 for $3.50. 
BEAVER (Early) 
Beaver is a new variety which was originated in Wisconsin. It is a very hardy 
variety, producing a good fruiting row. The berries are of good size, bright red and 
very firm. It resembles Premier in many ways. In fact it is a cross of Premier and 
Dunlap. The plant growth resembles Dunlap, while the berry has all of the character¬ 
istics of the Premier, but not quite so large. It is a much better plant maker than 
Premier. 
PRICE: 25 for 25c; 100 for 65c; 1,000 for $3.50.
