New French Everbearing Strawberries 
NEW “ST. JOSEPH" STRAWBERRY 
French fruit culturists have been working 
up everbearing strains of strawberries, and the 
“St. Joseph” is their latest and best introduc¬ 
tion. We received our original stock direct 
from the world-renowned firm of Vilmorin, 
Audreux & Co. They put out strong runners 
very early in the season as shown in the cut, 
and these very soon throw up blossoms and 
fruit, and where weather conditions are favor¬ 
able, will continue to fruit all summer. The St. 
Joseph is wonderfully prolific. Fruit large, 
beautiful crimson color and of fine flavor.

New Twice=Bearing “Louis Gauthier” 
Strawberry 
This new French variety will create a sen¬ 
sation among berry growers assoon as its merits 
are known. It has enormous size and a twice- 
bearing habit by means of its runners. It is 
vigorous in every direction. Its dark green, 
thick, tough leaves resist disease and enable it 
to hold out against droughts. It is enormously 
prolific, a hundred and sixty berries having 
been counted on one plant. In color, a light 
rose, which is rare among the large sorts. The 
runners, like the St. Joseph, are produced early 
in the season, and quickly come to maturity, 
producing, under favorable circumstances, a 
second crop of fruit about the month of Sej>- 
tember. These are perhaps not quite so large 
as those produced in early summer, but are of 
equally fine flavor and will prove most accept¬ 
able at that season of the year.
