MAKE YOUR SELECTION FROM THESE 
EIGHT VARIETIES — EVERY ONE HAS 
MADE STRAWBERRY HISTORY 
(Perfect). Midseason. Ripens about three days before 
Gandy. Fruit is firm and of large size, good color and 
of a delicious flavor; no green tips, wonderfully productive; plants are 
strong growers and thrive on any soil that will produce Strawberries. 
Price: 25 for 30c; 100 for 70c; 250 for #1.45; 1000 for #4.50. 
(Perfect). Originated by the U. S. Dept, 
of Agriculture. A cross between Missionary 
and Premier. Blakemore is a great plant maker. Foliage is healthy and 
stands up well during droughts. To get all that you are entitled to 
from Blakemore, do not let them mat too thick in the rows during the 
growing season. Fruit is firm, light in color, unexcelled as a long 
distance shipping berry. In productiveness Blakemore ranks very high, 
there being only a few varieties more productive. Berries will hang on 
the vines several days in good condition. One of the outstanding va' 
rieties, and no one should hesitate planting Blakemore for commercial 
purposes. Price: 25 for 25c; 100 for 60c; 250 for #1.20; 1000 for #3.50. 
(Perfect). Late. Ripens a little earlier than 
_ Gandy. Has a beautiful appearance. Size 
extra large, even in shape and uniform. We have grown Chesapeake 
commercially for a number of years, and it will carry to the market 
equally as well as any variety we know of, and that means much to the 
fruit grower because unless the berries arrive in the market in good 
condition and appear well, receipts are not as much as is true of other 
varieties that do carry well. Plants are healthy, dark green in color, 
large and vigorous. A very strong grower but a shy plant maker. A 
very good variety, welt known and extensively planted. Price: 25 for 
35c; 10O for 75c; 250 for #1.55; 1000 for #5.00. 
(Everbearing). Fruit is reasonably large, of rich, briL 
'JClIl liant color, calyx good, and it produces a crop of ber* 
ries excelling other Everbearing sorts on our famous Strawberry Boil 
here in our own nurseries on the Peninsula. Gem is by far the great' 
est plant maker of all the Everbearing varieties we have ever propagated. 
Plants are sturdy and strong, but not nearly so large as Mastodon and 
other varieties which do not produce an abundance of new plants. 
We recommend, positively, that you plant freely of Gem, and we do 
this with no fear of grief resulting from any disappointment you will 
experience in following our recommendations. Price: 25 for 40c; 100 
for #1.00; 250 for #2.00; 1000 for #7.00.
