Mr. Wright is well known as the pomologist of the Columbian Exposition. 
He was invited by friends to go and see this berry and he bought 30,000 plants 
on the spot for his own planting. 
This is the most talked about new variety in the East, where the sale of 
plants is no doubt greater for a new variety, than any ever introduced. We had 
a large supply last year, but after resetting we were again sold out, except a 
few plants in our plat reserved for fruit. With this small showing we were 
well pleased. It seems to be “all right,” as so many have proclaimed. We 
have a good supply for 1906 for those who could not be supplied last year, if 
they order early. It is said to be the largest early berry, and the most pro¬ 
ductive early berry that is large. 
P)p\X/pf ( Im P er fect.) A seedling of the Bubach and Parker 
VJCllCi cil W cl Earle introduced by T. C. Kevitt, of New Jersey, as the 
latest to ripen, the healthiest and tallest grower, the most drouth resisting of 
' ,_) varieties on his farm, and the most productive, with imperfect blossom, and 
the greatest stooling berry on the market; producing the finest berries with a 
beautiful gloss, as if each had received a coat of varnish. With once fruiting 
this appears to be a good variety; good healthy plants and productive of large 
sized, bright glossy red berries of good quality, ripening from medium to late. 
[ HtP^t (Im P erfeCt ‘) from S. H. Warren, of Massachusettes, in 1902. 
The Eatest is a cross between the Jewell and the Belmont. Mr. 
Warren says: 
I have grown it six years, and have been growing strawberries 49 years, and this 
seedling is one of the most productive I have ever grown, and the latest I know of. In 
l.>00, I picked a few berr es the second day of August. This seedling was awarded 
first premium in 1899. at the Massachusetts Horticultural Exhibition with large compe¬ 
tition. I have refused $2.00 apiece for the plants 
The demand for this w’as more than our supply last year and we had none 
left to fruit, but in 1904 it was among the largest on our grounds, some of them 
as large as any we had ever fruited. It was very late and extraordinary 
productive; not firm enough for shipping, but good quality and very attrac¬ 
tive. A berry for the home garden or a nearby fancy market. The plants are 
large and stocky with healthy, dark green foliage. 
Mirlniaht (Perfect.) This is G. H. Hale’s latest. Claimed by him to be 
iVllUIllgiU the latest ever offered. The plants are good growers here. 
The fruit large, of good form, color and quality, but the season was too wet 
for it. Needs further trial. 
IVIprlr [-lanna (Perfect.) Plants from M. T. Thompson, of Virginia, in 
****** *^ * ldlllld 1902. A seedling of the Bubach. Not so large as Bubach, 
but firmer and much more productive. Plants healthy and more vigorous. 
Fruit good to large size, bright red, firm and of good quality. MidseasOn. 
Challpnap ( perfe ct.) Introduced by M. Crawford, of Ohio. We find the 
V^ildllCIlgc Challenge all that has been claimed for it. The plants are good 
growers, with clean, healthy foliage. Fruit large to extra large, long, broad and 
flattened as a rule, of bright, glossy red color and very handsome when crated, 
but with more or less white on the underside of the largest berries unless mulch¬ 
ed to keep them from the ground. It is a good cropper and the season is medium 
to late. A good variety. 
NirhnU ( Perfect ) The berries are large in size, perfect in 
vjiauvine shape, color when fully ripe a very dark glossy red: 
solid and of delicious flavor, fresh or canned; ripens medium to late, holding 
up well in size. It has a perfect blossom and is a good fertilizer. Fruit stems 
and leaves tall, bearing clusters well up from the ground, remaining firm on the 
vines for some time after ripe. Plants vigorous, healthy and productive. 
Prof. W. J. Green, of the Ohio Experiment Station, says: 
ix- « t ,i s a V. 0r , ry for horne U8e or for canning, holding its shape when 
Warfield or Enhance, and is superior to either in quality. Again in 
he says: I have not seen a better berry for home use or for canning. 
Ca mprnnQ Farlxr (Perfect.) Introduced by D. Brandt, of Ohio, in 1902, 
v^amci Ullb L-aliy with an offer of $100.00 for 100 plants of any variety 
which was earlier and better. Mr. Brandt says: 
its list be ihJn iiiinJ h V a r lie ‘^ 0f ,^ n 8tr awberrlcs. It was full of ripe berries and at 
Hnr hirHos ^ F<irl y , Excelsior and other early sorts commenced to-show a few 
npe berries Mr. A. Warner, of Iowa, says: Cameron’s Early was ready for bu^inoss 
two weeks before any other variety. * oumness 
canned equal to
