STRAWBERRY PLANTS OF QUALITY

DORSETT 
Heavy Yields - Large Size - Better Quality - Greater Profits 
Dorsett was originated by the U. S. Department of Agriculture and altho was not in¬ 
troduced until 1933 lias made such wonderful strides in this short time that it is now con¬ 
sidered by many growers the “leading” variety in the strawberry family. To attain this 
leadership in such a short time it must have exceptional merit and prove on a dollar and 
cent basis that it will make growers more money than any other variety. That is just 
what Dorsett has proven many times and in many sections that it will do. The combin¬ 
ation at the top of this page is the reason. 
Dorsett is a heavy yielding variety producing large crops of fancy fruit and the ber¬ 
ries, with the exception of Fairfax, have the finest dessert flavor of any variety ever in¬ 
troduced ; in size they rank with the largest being exceeded only by Fairfax, are bright 
red in color, and like Blakemore, hold their bright color some time after being picked, 
making them have that fresh, just picked appearance, which with their bright green cap 
makes a beautiful appearance in the package and makes Dorsett especially in demand by 
buyers and when tasted the flavor will make them buy again and again. The season of 
ripening is usually as early as Premier but a much larger early crop is produced which 
means you get a larger number of quarts the first picking or two when they bring the 
highest prices. In plant growth Dorsett is a vigorous grower making a heavy matted 
row which may need thinning for best results. The vigorous dark green foliage, like 
Fairfax, seems to radiate vigor and they keep this healthy condition until the fruiting 
season is entirely over. Dorsett, while not as firm as Fairfax and Blakemore, is a fine 
shipping variety and is equally good for home garden, local market or roadside stands. 
Commercial growers have found “Dorsett pays” and are planting heavy to it. I believe 
you too will find Dorsett a “Profit Bringer” and urge you to give it a thorough trial. 
PREMIER 
For Many Years The Most Popular Early Variety 
The berry that has paid off more mortgages than any other variety and is just as good 
today as it ever was. Has been, and with the exception of Dorsett and Fairfax, is still 
the greatest money-making early variety grown. Premier really staged a “come-back” 
last season selling more plants than I have sold since the introduction of Dorsett and 
Fairfax with hardly enough plants to go round proving that it is still one of our best 
and most popular varieties and for home gardens, local markets or for shipping mod¬ 
erate distances it has out classed them all. Premier will grow and thrive most every¬ 
where, except in the far south, and will make good fruiting beds on most all kinds of 
soil. Plants are vigorous growers, keeping their healthy green foliage clear thru the 
fruiting season and is one reason they can produce such an enormous crop of fruit, for 
taking year after year, under all conditions, no other variety will produce such big crops 
of large bright red berries that most always bring good prices due to their large size, their 
bright red color which extends clear thru to the center, and their handsome appearance. 
Their bright green cap, which stays green to the end of the berry season, even in dry 
weather, adds just the right touch of beauty to the fruit and makes for higher selling- 
prices. Ripens early and produces thru a long season. A sure cropper, almost frost proof, 
never having failed to make a crop of fruit in this section since it was introduced and is 
another reason why Premier will keep you on the profit side of the ledger, there being no 
crop failure and no off years. I have a nice stock of Premier plants this season that I 
am sure will please you and have them listed at prices that will save you money on this 
quality of plants. 
KLONDYKE A vigorous grower, makes plants abundantly. Berries uniform, 
of fair size, color rich dark red, very juicy and handsome. Sells 
quickly at top prices; very firm and an excellent long distance shipper. A favorite with 
canners and preservers. Klondyke has been a favorite with growers all thru the south 
and I have listed it again because I have calls for it but it is only moderately productive 
and I still believe that Blakemore will make them more money. 
MT^^TON ARY A standard early variety that is very popular in the south- 
iiiooiwiwt.ii x ern states especially in Florida where it is practically the 
only variety grown as it seems to be better adapted to soil and climatic conditions than 
any other variety. Plants are strong growers making plants freely, aie \ei,\ piocuciie 
of medium to large size berries that are dark red in color with large green caps that 
make them very attractive in appearance and always sells for good prices, vciy n 
therefore a good shipper and keeper and a favorite with the cold pack or juice men.
