500,000 Strawberries 
Fresh Dug as Ordered 
We are this year attempting- to have a special force on packing and 
digging Strawberries so that no plant will go out more than six hours from 
digging time. 
We have an excellent field of 500,000 Ohio-grown plants on a northern 
slope where the breezes of Lake Erie make the plants hardier and heavier. 
We honestly believe our plants are worth $2.00 per 1000 more to plant than 
most nurseries. 
By mail, postpaid: 25 for 25c; 100 for 85c; 250 for $1.85. 
Express, collect: 100 for 75c; 500 for $3.25; 1000 for $6.00; 
5000 for $25.00. 
Senator Dunlap 
SENATOR DUNLAP IS AN OLD STANDARD VARIETY grown for a 
good many years. This variety has made more crates and more dollars for 
berry growers than any other one variety. Requires very little attention, 
and beds last for years if you keep the grass out. It’s the toughest variety 
known. Plants are healthy, fast growers, and make plants freely. Should 
be set 24 inches by 36 inches apart in rows. Berries very dark red. Wonder¬ 
ful canning berry ; great for preserves. 
Fairfax 
Fairfax is the QUALITY berry. It is considered by most everyone who 
has tasted them to be by far a better flavored berry than Premier, and 
other good flavored berries. FAIRFAX like DORSETT, was introduced by 
the United States Department of Agriculture, and is supposed to be a cross 
between the Premier and the Royal Sovereign. 
The foliage, like that of Dorsett, is of a very good quality. Good foliage 
means a good fruiting berry. 
Fairfax is also a very productive berry, having produced at the rate of 
5120 quarts per acre. The size of the berries averages large. They will aver¬ 
age with the CHESAPEAKE, and that is going some. Fairfax is a little 
more firm than Dorsett, and is fully as firm as Blakemore. This makes it a 
wonderful shipping berry. The color of the Fairfax is light red, with yellow 
seeds, and a nice green hull. You should by all means try some Fairfax this 
spring. 
New Dorsett 
This new variety was originated by the United States Department of Agri¬ 
culture. It is a scientific cross between the PREMIER and the Royal 
Sovereign. 
Dorsett is one of the firmest berries known, and one of the heaviest pro¬ 
ducers, having produced at the rate of 6640 quarts per acre in the East. The 
foliage is a very dark green and holds this fine color way through the fruiting 
season. Dorsett berries average very large in size, even a little larger than 
Premier. Color is of light red, and will hold this light red color long after 
picking. This probably will be a big factor on the wholesale markets as that 
is what the wholesale fruit buyers are looking for. Light red berries always 
appear to be in better shape than do dark red ones. Try a few of these 
plants this year. 
Catskill 
Extra-large, plump, NEW Strawberry which is self-pollenizing and ripens 
mid-season. Has the MOST DAZZLING red color and RICHLY AROMATIC 
FLAVOR of any midseason strawberry. Fine in texture, firm in quality, 
and a prolific bearer—it makes an ideal dessert berry. Thrives on any good 
soil and is hardy. 
Premier 
The Premier is one of the most popular varieties that we offer and it well 
deserves all the praise that can be given it, for several reasons: 
1. Premier is the first to ripen. 
2. Fruit large size and deep red color. 
3. Firm flesh and excellent quality. 
4. Heavy yielder and makes thrifty growth. 
5. You can depend on Premier for a good crop when other varieties are 
a failure. 
6. Foliage is not susceptible to the leaf spot which has ruined many 
strawberry patches. 
We unhesitatingly recommend the Premier for either home or commercial 
planting. 
Gibson 
Strong grower with long roots and abundant foliage, exceedingly produc¬ 
tive. Berries extra large, choice flavored, dark glossy red clear through; 
follows Premier. 
Sample (Imp*) 
A standard late sort for both home and market. Large dark-colored 
berries in profusion, of uniform size. Should be planted with a “perfect” 
companion ; never alone.
