STRAWBERRY PLANTS 
TWO NEW EARLY STRAWBERRIES 
FAIRFAX AND DORSETT 
These two new varieties were developed by scientists in the 
U. S. Dept, of Agriculture and were selected from thousands of 
seedlings as being outstanding in quality, rigor, productiveness, 
size and appearance. Stock of these two varieties is limited and 
we suggest that you place your order early for delivery at the 
proper time as they are sure to be sold out before the end of the 
season. 
Dorsett. No other berry, except Fairfax, has the fine dessert 
quality of Dorsett. This quality is probably taken from the 
English variety Royal Sovereign, which is one of its parents. 
There are some differences of opinion as to whether Dorsett or 
Fairfax is of the better quality, but all are unanimous that these 
two varieties stand head and shoulders above all others. Dor¬ 
sett berries average very large in size, are firm and rather light 
in color, while the flavor leaves nothing to be desired. The 
berries are beautiful in appearance; the light color, bright green 
cap, large size and attractive shape make them very desirable 
and should appeal to every grower of Strawberries. Once tasted 
this appeal becomes doubly strong. 
Fairfax. No other berry, except Dorsett, can equal Fairfax in 
quality. It probably takes this outstanding quality from the 
Royal Sovereign parentage, which has been famous in England 
for years; it is impossible to describe it; to be appreciated it 
must be tasted. Fairfax berries average very large and firm 
and picked at the proper time are a bright red with a light green 
cap; as they become riper they become darker and then very 
dark red; they maintain their firmness and flavor even after 
they become very dark. 
Price of the above two new varieties, 25 for $1.00; 50 for $1.50; 
100 for $2.50; $15.00 per 1000. 
STANDARD EARLY VARIETIES 
Premier (Perfect). Enormously productive, commencing early 
and bearing through a long season, the flavor is delicious. 
Senator Dunlap (Perfect). This grand Strawberry will please the 
most critical person. One of the first to yield and continues well 
into the height of the season. 
MID-SEASON VARIETIES 
Big Joe (Perfect). The merits of this splendid variety are great 
rigor of plant, splendid root system, exceptional productiveness, 
large size of fruit, excellent flavor and length of bearing season. 
LATE SEASON VARIETIES 
Chesapeake (Perfect). The berries are handsome in appearance 
because of their large size, rich color, glossy surface, uniform 
shape and bright green cap. 
Gandy’s Prize (Perfect). One of the best late sorts, very large, 
solid and of a beautiful crimson color; especially good for family 
garden planting. 
William Belt (Perfect). The plant is rigorous, though not a ram¬ 
pant grower; succeeds on all soils, invariably yields heavily, and 
continues for a long period; the berries are always of large size 
and highest quality; deep crimson in color and very firm. 
Price of the above in layer plants, 25 for 75c.; $1.00 for 50; 
100 for $1.50; $10.00 per 1000.
