STRAWBERRIES 
For field culture, plant in rows four feet apart, with the plants one foot apart 
in the row. For garden culture, plant three feet by one foot. Should the 
ground not be prepared for planting on receipt of plants, they should be care- , 
fully heeled in, in a cool, moist, shady place. Do not sprinkle the foliage, as it ' 
causes a moisture to collect, which is very injurious to the crowns, causing them | 
to rot. In setting the plants be careful to have the crowns even with or a little 
above the surface of the ground, and to have the trench or hole in which the ! 
plants arc to be set deep enough to allow the roots their full length. Some I 
varieties of Strawberries have pistillate or imperfect flowers. These must | 
have perfect-flowered varieties planted every fifteen or twenty feet among them, I 
or they will produce imperfect fruit. The pistillate varieties are marked (P). !

Climax. This very prolific strawberry originated with Henry W. Gra- j 
ham, of Maryland. In 1900 he had 1,100 plants, which he set on less than a 
quarter of an acre. In 1901 he shipped 6,300 quarts, or about 20,200 quarts 
to the acre. Medium early. We would advise all our patrons to give it a 
trial, if only a dozen plants. Dozen 35 cents ; 100, $2.00; 1000, £8.00. 
Gandy. One of the best late Strawberries. Large, uniform size, rich crim¬ 
son. Is a vigorous grower and good cropper. Late to very. late. 
Echo. Superior to other varieties in both flavor and sweetness. Fruit 
brilliant red, of medium size, second early. Very productive. 
Nick Ohmer. Exceedingly large, beautiful color; conical in form, uniform 
and regular ; quality unsurpassed. Very productive ; strong grower. 
Palmer. Extra early. Fruit large; rich, dark, glossy red; of the highest 
quality. Plant strong and robust; produces two to four well-filled fruit 
stalks to each plant. Dozen, 33 cents ; 100, $2.00 ; 1000, $8.00. 
Sample. (P.) A fine berry of very large size; crimson color clean through 
to the core. Long in bearing, solid and good. It is quite late to ripen. 
Seaford (/’). Color deep, glossy red, and quality fit for a king. A vigorous 
grower, ripening its crop fast and early. 
Stevens’ Late Champion. Originated in New Jersey. Plants of more than 
ordinary vigor; a good runner; perfectly healthy; color bright. A fine 
looking berry. Ripens after most other varieties have gone. We consider 
it the best late strawberry we grew last season. Dozen, 35 cents ; 100 $2.00; 
1000, $8.00. 
VicR's “Uracle Joe” 
Its fruit is perfect in form, of a dark, rich glossy color, of firm 
flesh, monstrous in size, combined with flavor not usually found 
| in fruit of its size. The “ Uncle Joe ” Strawberry embodies every 
J requirement to place it in the first rank with strawberry growers. 
Its berries are most 
uniform in size and 
shape, and are rarely 
malformed. A m o n g 
oilier attractive features,, 
its early and continuous 
yield during the season 
is attributable to its 
strong, healthy and robust 
growth. It is of the per¬ 
fect flowering class. 
In Productiveness 
Vick’s “Uncle Joe” 
is Unsurpassed 
While its rich dark green 
foliage sets the large 
berry off to perfection. 
You will find this 
peerless strawberry a 
veritable treasure in its 
adaptability to yield even 
under most unfavorable 
conditions.
