New Strawberry 
Messenger” 
A new one that is bound to make money for the ones that grow it. Begins to ripen with 
the early varieties and continues for a long season. The berry is of extra large size, well 
colored, and very firm, making it a good shipper, excellent flavor, a good market or home table 
berry. The plants are exceedingly vigorous, being the strongest of any early berry I ever saw. 
The foliage is clean and healthy, almost, if not quite as rank as the Chesapeake plant, which it 
resembles very much. I have the entire stock of these plants and am now introducing it to the 
Trade. Am booking orders now. Several of the large growers have already placed their 
order. Will ship when wanted.
