SOUTH MICHIGAN NURSERY, New Buffalo, Mich. 
BLAKEMORE 
(EARLY) 
The United States Department of 
Agriculture Recommends It. 
This wonderful new creation called the 
BLAKEMORE (U. S. D. A. No. 659',, 
was originated from a cross of the Mis- 
sionary and the Premier in the year 1923 
by the United States Department of Agri- 
culture. The berries are much firmer than 
the Premier, Missionary or the Klondike. 
The BLAKEMORE are slightly blunted 
conic with broad shoulders and slim neck. 
The shape of the Blakemore might vary 
some in different localities. Easy picking 
and hulling qualifies. The berries are a 
beautiful bright glossy red color, with 
tough skin, firm flesh, with wonderful 
mild flavor. Plants make runners freely, 
and you are sure of getting a good fruit¬ 
ing row. They should be set about 24 
inches apart. If set closer than that they 
will get too thick. It has been tried out 
and found to be one week earlier than 
Premier. It is a wonderful market berry. 
Why wouldn’t it be? Think of it—one 
week earlier than Premier. 
Prices: 25 for 35c; 50 for 50c; 75 for 
65c; 100 for 75c; 200 for $1.20; 250 for

berry, and produces fancy berries with the 
Aroma, which is a late berry. Plants are

GIBSON 
(MEDIUM LATE) 
Gibson has long been a favorite with commercial 
growers everywhere. It is not only a heavy cropper 
but a sure cropper—in fact during our many years’ 
acquaintance with Gibson we have never known it 
to fail to produce a profitable crop. The plants 
are large and healthy; foliage strong, upright and 
abundant. Fruit is of the very finest color, quality, 
flavor and appearance, selling well on any market 
and mighty fine for home use.

CHESAPEAKE 
(VERY LATE) 
The best and most perfect late June-beaung 
variety of Strawberry grown. Like Premier, it is a 
profitable berry, because it is late and when the 
Chesapeake comes into bearing all other Straw¬ 
berries are either gone or are so small that buyers 
will not look at them. Berries are as dark as the 
Senator Dunlap. All berries are well above the 
average in size. Wonderful, mild, sweet flavor. 
Chesapeake is a wonderful keeper. Plant some 
Chesapeake this spring and be convinced. 
Prices: 25 for 45c; 50 for 60c; 75 for 70c; 100 
for 85c; 200 for $1.40; 250 for $1.60; 500 for 
$2.65; 1000 for $5.25. 
PREMIER 
The Most Popular Berry Ever Introduced 
If you plant STROMER’S PREMIER 
you will get the first berries on the mar¬ 
ket. They will be bearing heavily before 
other varieties begin. Your biggest pick¬ 
ing will be when berries are in good de¬ 
mand and are bringing top prices. Prem¬ 
ier will grow anywhere. The plants ar( 
sturdy and long rooted, a good drought 
resister. The berries are very large, and 
hold their size to the last picking. The 
flavor cannot be beaten. 
In Premier we offer you the greatest 
early Strawberry of all time. However, 
the early ripening of this variety is only 
one of its many good features. It is im¬ 
mensely productive, and unlike other 
early ripening Strawberries, the fruit pro¬ 
duced by Premier is of the very finest 
quality, color, texture and flavor; and last 
but not least, every berry is large in size 
and uniform in shape. For every purpose 
that a Strawberry is wanted, Premier is 
supreme—eating, canning, preserving, dis¬ 
tant and local market—no o^her variety 
can give you any more pleasure, satisfac¬ 
tion or profit. Premier succeeds every¬ 
where and never fails to give a big crop 
of the very finest berries. The foliage is 
tough and healthy and grows tall and 
rank, covering the blossoms and berries 
and protecting them from frost and scald¬ 
ing sun. 
Prices: 25 for 45c; 50 for 60c; 75 for 
75c; 100 for 85c; 200 for $1.50; 250 for 
$1.50; 500 for $2.50; 1000 for $5.00. 
Less discounts for early orders. 
PEARL 
(LATE) 
This extra late variety completes the circle—a 
late Strawberry that can be depended upon to pro¬ 
duce quality and quantity. Whether you are 
growing Strawberries for home use or for market 
a long fruiting season is desired. Because of its 
late blooming season Pearl is the ideal variety for 
frosty locations. The immense foliage gives ample 
protection to both the bud and fruit. The berries 
are large, uniform, solid and red clear through, and 
verv attractive, with excellent flavor. 
Prices: 25 for 45c; 50 for 60c; 75 for 75c: 100 
for 85c: 200 for $1.30; 250 for $1.50; 500 for 
$2.50; 1000 for $5.00. 
Senator Dunlap 
(MID-SEASON) 
SENATOR DUNLAP IS AN OLD STANDARD 
VARIETY. It has made more crates and more 
dollars for berry growers than any other one variety. 
Requires very little attention. It’s the toughest 
variety known. Plants are healthy, fast growers, 
and make plants freely. Should be set 24 inches 
bv 36 inches apart in rows. Berries very dark red 
Wonderful canning berry; great for preserves. 
Senator Dunlap is sometimes sold under the name 
of Dr. Burrill. We can see no difference between 
these two varieties, exceot the cost of the plants. 
Prices: 25 for 35c: 50 for 50c; 75 for 65c 100 
for 70c: 200 for $1.10; 250 for $1.25; 500 for 
$2.00: 1000 for $4.00. 
Kentucky Aroma 
(VERY LATE) 
This late Strawberry has long been a favorite 
market variety in Kentucky, Tennessee, Missouri 
and Arkansas, but is grown with equal success in 
every other part of the country. Usually command¬ 
ing premium prices on all markets, it is one of 
the greatest of long distance shippers, owing to the 
supreme quality of the berries. It is also highly 
desirable and suitable for home use as there is 
something indescribably rich and pleasant about 
thp flavor. 
Prices: 25 for 45c; 50 for 60c; 75 for 75c; 100 
for 85c; 200 for $1.30; 250 for $1.50; 500 for
