BERRY PLANTS, Continued 
STRAWBERRIES, Continued 
Hyde Double Nick — A “built-up” strain of 
the Nick Ohmer which we introduced to 
the west years ago. One of the best com¬ 
mercial money-makers. A heavy cropper 
of large shiny berries of remarkable keep¬ 
ing quality. The best variety for eastern 
and long distance shipping. 
Klondyke — The standard early variety for 
California. We have a built-up strain cer¬ 
tified. 
New Oregon Improved—Large, deep red of 
finest flavor. Thrives best in dark, rich loam. 
Marshall—A standby for both coast and in¬ 
terior sections; healthy foliage and of long 
life. 
Magoon — We offer an improved strain of 
this standard home variety. Immense 
berries of superior quality sometimes set¬ 
ting up to 300 blossoms and fruit at one 
time. Prefers adobe qr heavy soil. Not a 
good keeper but unexcelled for home use 
and near-by markets. 
Oregon Plum—Our introduction to Mr. Ta- 
tsiguchi at Florin in 1895. We have the 
original strain. Is similar to New Oregon 
but better suited to warmer districts. 
Progressive Improved—With the exception of 
the coast sections, this is perhaps the most 
consistently everbearing variety. The Ban¬ 
ner and Magoon are longer croppers on 
the coast. 
Dorsett—A newer variety of great promise, 
both for home and field planting. Extreme¬ 
ly healthy and long-lived foliage of strong 
vigor and “well set-up.” Berries large, of 
good color and plentiful. A heavy bearer 
and good money maker; better than the 
Fairfax for dry conditions. 
Fairfax — Of same parents and similar to 
Dorsett, but berry is perhaps a little firmer 
and darker with more flattened ends. Very 
showy fruit.
