PERFECTION 
A distinct and very 
superior variety; produc¬ 
ing large, long clusters of 
large, bright sparkling 
red berries of mild, su¬ 
perior quality in great 
profusion. Awarded 
many prizes and medals. 
The editor of the old re¬ 
liable American Agri¬ 
culturist says: “In re¬ 
ality it is all its name 
indicates. It is simply 
the most beautiful and 
perfect Currant thus far 
introduced.” 
It has proved an un¬ 
qualified success at Mon¬ 
mouth and I am receiv¬ 
ing flattering reports of 
it from all parts of the 
country. I do not hesi¬ 
tate to recommend it as 
the finest and best Cur¬ 
rant upon the market. 
I think so well of it that 
I have several thousand

CARRIE 
A variety from Minnesota and claimed to possess 
“more valuable points of excellence than any other 
Gooseberry”; because “It is the most productive, the 
easiest picked, the most attractive, the most saleable, the 
most profitable, the hardiest, the healthiest, the freest 
from mildew, the earliest bearer”; and further “it is of 
good size, it is of deep maroon color, it is of highest 
quality and the most valuable for jams, jellies and 
canning.” Carrie is claimed to be a cross of the Industry 
and the Plough ton, taking the stocky growth and large 
foliage of the Industry and the vigor, freedom from 
mildew and increased productiveness of the Houghton. 
I have now had the Carrie for three years and have 
fruited it two seasons—proving with me every claim made 
for it. It is a beautiful grower and its yield is simply 
enormous. The berries are of fair, though not of large 
size, (about double the size of the Houghton), of a 
bright maroon color and of excellent quality. In my 
humble opinion it is much the best Gooseberry, all 
things considered, to date and is destined to become the 
Gooseberry of the future. See illustration of branch.
