T HE above strawberry was originated at Norwood, Mass. It was named by, and awarded first prize, by the Massachusetts Horticultural Society. 
The above is an actual photograph from nature, the berries run as large as 3 inches and more in diameter. Four such berries would fill a quart 
basket heaping full. The originator expects to produce three berries this season (1908) that will heap a basket. We believe it the most promis¬ 
ing strawberry proposition of the day, and have purchased the entire stock which is only (^-th) one fortieth of an acre at present. We think $ro 
invested in these plants now, will return the investor a hundred fold. Like Bubach, Marshall and Glen Mary, it is bound to be in great demand for 
years to come. A few dollars invested in either one of these berries, when they first came out, would have made a small fortune for any good business 
man. A word to the wfise is sufficient. 
THE IDAHO RED RASPBERRY (New) 
This new berry comes from Idaho. The plants are ideal growers, making a stocky growth and branching naturally without trimming. It will 
stand the very coldest weather. The berries average ^ larger than Cuthbert or Loudon and sell as high as 30c per quart, averaging 5c per quart better 
than all others, throughout the season. The stock is limited and no more than 12 plants sold to any one party this spring. Those Who Invest in 
Either the Idaho Raspberry or the Norwood Strawberry Need not Fear a Surplus of Plants and Low Prices, as soon as they get 
a stock, as the supply of either is very limited and Prices will not be Made Low for Several Years to Come. 
THE PLUM FARMER RASPBERRY 
The greatest money maker of the day. Yielded 3900 quarts, or at the rate of $471.3010 the acre. Read the following letter: — 
North Stonimc.ton, Conn,, March 7th, 1907. 
Frirnd Farmer:— I feel very grateful to you because you introduced the Plum Farmer raspberry. I bought 100 of you three years ago, and have fruited it twice and have an acre 
of them to fruit this year. It is the greatest raspberry on earth, I believe, and I have no use for any other. I had the Kansas, Cumberland and Palmer, and have given them all up and 
shall set nothing but Plum Farmer this spring. I intend to set two acres of them. They are the best paying of anything in the fruit line I ever struck; pay me much better than straw¬ 
berries. I sold, this past summer, from 64 square rods of Plum Farmer, $187.53 worth of fruit. They averaged me a little over 12c per quart. 
Sincerely yours, 
CHARLES C. CHAPMAN, 
Chairman Board of Education and Trial Justice for the Town of North Stonington, Conn. 
We never sold so many dollars worth of any fruit plants as we are selling of this variety of Black Caps, as high as 8000 plants to one paity in the 
black cap evaporating sections. No Fruit Grower or Nurseryman can afford to do without this grand black cap. It was named for us (my nickname is 
Plum Farmer) and I stake my reputation upon its meiits. We sold nearly 250,000 of these plants, spring of 1907, and have fully half a million nicely 
rooted plants to offer this spring. We are not permitted to name prices here, but can quote them quick by mail. 
OUR CATALOGUE describes everything we have in the berry line and is free to any one interested. Write for it to-day. It may give you 
some ideas how to prepare a good catalogue yourselves, address,
