SENATOR DUNLAP (Mid-Season) 
THE DARK COLORED BERRY —Senator Dunlap has been a household word for 
many years. It is referred to as “That dark red berry.” It is not, however, planted 
so extensively as it was a few years ago, but when it comes to quality and color no 
other berry can equal it. 
Those who wish to grow berries for use in the home can find nothing that equals 
Dunlap. 
The fault with this variety is that it is too productive of plants and in dry weather 
the berries have a tendency to become small as the season advances. 
The plants should be planted much farther apart than such varieties as Premier, 
Fairfax and Dorsett, and the rows kept narrowed down by cutting off the new plants 
after the row is of sufficient width. 
If you have never grown strawberries try Dunlap. You can not fail with them. 
We have a fine stock of plants of this variety. 
PRICE: 25 plants 25c; 100 for 60c; 1,000 for $3.00. 
FAIRFAX (Mid-Season) 
Fairfax, one of the new berries introduced by the Department of Agriculture, is 
meeting with considerable favor, especially in the East. The quality of the berry is 
fine, with healthy foliage. It is well suited for home use, but not quite firm enough for 
long distance shipping. Fairfax should be tested in every home garden. 
PRICE: 25 plants 25c; 100 for 75c; 1,000 for $4.50. 
DORSETT (Mid-Season) 
This is another of the new varieties; it is a berry of high quality, healthy foliage, 
large in size, rather light in color and well suited for commercial growers. It is one 
of the heaviest producers, having yielded over 6,000 quarts per acre in the East. You 
should try a few of these newer varieties—they might just suit your soil and climate. 
PRICE: 25 plants 25c; 100 for 75c; 1,000 for $4.50. 
CATSKILL (Late) 
Berries average about as large as Fairfax. Will hold their size well to the end of 
the picking season. Makes a fine, vigorous plant growth. Leaves are the largest we 
have ever seen on any Strawberry plant. Fruit stems are thick and grow upright. Ber¬ 
ries ripen mid-season, and quality compares with Premier. It was introduced by the 
New York Experiment Station several years ago, and we have great hopes for it. Plants 
are still quite scarce and our supply is limited. 
PRICE: 25 plants 25c; 100 for 75c; 1,000 for $4.50. 
GEM (Everbearing) 
Gem plants are usually medium to small, but make a very vigorous growth. Care 
should be taken to set Gem plants early and under good conditions. Once started they 
grow vigorously and make lots of plants. Our records for two years show Gem about as 
productive as Mastodon in 1936 and considerably more productive in 1937. The berries 
average in size, are light in color, very showy, attractive and firm enough to ship. 
Quality is somewhat tart but fine when stweetened. They sell for top prices. 
PRICE: 25 plants 25c; 100 for $1.00; 1,000 for $6.00.
