STRAWBERRY PLANTS 
Delicious, fine strawberries are easy to grow if you get good plants. Set 
out only strong, freshly dug plants of the best varieties and the rest is 
easy. Merely give them ordinary cultivation to keep the weeds out, 
proper fertilization, and you will have fine strawberries. 
Our plants are fresh dug and are guaranteed to reach the pur¬ 
chaser in good condition. If any should be damaged on the way we 
will replace them without charge if notified within tivo days after the re¬ 
ceipt of the plants. 
Strawberry plants should be set out in the spring as early as the ground 
can be gotten in good condition. The rows should be ft. apart and 
the plants 12 to 18 in. apart in the rows. Complete directions for raising 
strawberries will be found in our pamphlet on the “Culture of Vegetables 
and Flowers” which will be sent free with any order if requested. 
Orders for plants will be entered at any time and the plants will be 
sent at the proper time for setting them out. We cannot agree to send 
plants to the Pacific Coast or to the Gulf Coast States as strawberry 
plants cannot be successfully transported so far and we cannot furnish 
them at the time they should be set out in these localities. Write for 
prices on larger lots. We cannot send plants into Canada.

Two Exceptionally Fine Strawberries 
These two varieties originated a few years ago by the United States 
Department of Agriculture and are the most outstanding among the 
early kinds. They are exceptionally vigorous in growth and clean healthy 
appearance. 
DORSETT. The berries are very large and firm, with a most delicious 
flavor. The color is bright red which is maintained for some time, 
making this the best kind for those who want a berry for markets where 
the bright color sells best. In our trials Dorsett has out-yielded every 
variety except Fairfax and Premier, and the berries were superior in 
size to Premier. Perfect flowers. 
Doz. 35c; 50 plants $1.00; 100 plants $1.65; transportation paid. Not 
paid: $9.00 per 1000. 500 at the 1000 rate. 
FAIRFAX. The berries are fully as large as Dorsett, and of the same 
general appearance. There is not much to choose in firmness between 
the two, but Fairfax is darker in color at the picking stage and gets 
quite dark as they get older. For those who prefer a darker berry we 
recommend the Fairfax. In our trials the Fairfax has not only out- 
yielded all other varieties, but the berries were greatly superior in size 
and quality to all except Dorset t. Perfect flowers. 
Doz. 35c; 50 plants $1.00; 100 plants $1.65; transportation paid. Not 
paid: $9.00 per 1000. 500 at the 1000 rate. 
CATSKILL. (New.) Midseason. Enormous cropper. This new variety 
developed at Geneva, has found great favor as a kind to prolong the 
season. It starts to ripen medium and lasts for a long time. The berries 
are firm, bright red in color and of very good quality. The plants are 
vigorous, with plenty of runners. You will find this variety a welcome 
addition to your strawberry bed. Perfect flowers. 
Doz. 35c; 50 plants $1.00; 100 plants $1.65; transportation paid. Not 
paid: $9.00 per 1000. 500 at the 1000 rate. 
PREMIER. This berry has long been a favorite of the early variety. 
The berries are large, deep bright red all over and are of fine quality. 
They ripen very early and the plants are strong, healthy and extremely 
productive. On account of the large size and handsome appearance the 
Premier berries are always in demand making this variety a most 
profitable one to raise for market and roadside sales. Perfect flowers. 
Doz. 35c; 50 plants 90c; 100 plants $1.50; transportation paid. Not 
paid: $8.00 per 1000. 500 or more are furnished at the 1000 rate.

Fairfax Strawberries 
Fall or Everbearing Strawberries 
You get a crop the first year! 
These varieties start to produce fruit almost as soon as the plants are 
set out. Plants set out in the Spring commence to bear ripe fruit in August 
and continue to bear until freezing weather. The following year they 
produce a crop in June, the same as the common kinds, and also another 
crop in August and September. 
Note —It is essential to set out Everbearing kinds early in the spring, 
so do not delay ordering them as they must be set early. 
When the plants are first set out the flowers should be carefully picked 
off and none allowed to produce fruit until the plants have become well 
established which will be six to eight weeks. 
GEM. An Early Highly Productive New Everbearing. This new ever- 
bearing strawberry is an outstanding variety, and is far ahead of all 
other everbearing sorts. Our experience during the past few years makes 
us think it even better than Mastodon. The fruit we picked this fall 
was of much better shape and more attractive. They are large in size, 
very uniform, bright sparkling red, and with a mild rich flavor. The 
berries are firm, stand shipping well, and sell for the highest prices in 
t he market. The plants are hardy, disease resistant, and produce great 
crops of berries as well as being prolific plant producers. We urge you 
to try some of these fine berries this year. 
Doz. 45c; 50 plants $1.10; 100 plants $1.75; transportation paid. Not 
paid: $11.00 per 1000. 500 at the 1000 rate. 
MASTODON. The Largest Everbearing. The fruit is of a rounded 
conical shape, smooth and glossy, bright red and very sweet being free 
from acidity. The plants we offer are strong and vigorous and will 
produce large yields of big berries. Crop short. 
Doz. 50c; 50 plants $1.25; 100 plants $2.00; transportation paid. Not 
paid: $13.00 per 1000. 500 at the 1000 rate.
