EARLY VARIETIES 
HOWARD No. 17 (Special Strain) (Perfect)—This variety, 
called Premier by some growers, has been the leading Northern 
strawberry for over twenty years. 
The Howard produces a very large crop of well sized, well 
shaped berries, starting as early in the season as any, and 
while growing smaller in size at the end, will be bearing berries 
almost as long as the late varieties. 
Howard’s popularity comes largely from the fact that on 
almost any type of land or with any kind of weather, it will 
produce a large crop. No other variety can match it in de- 
pendability. 
Our strain of Howard has been improved by years of plant- 
ing of selective stock. 
We recommend that a large proportion of your strawberry 
bed be of this variety whether you are a commercial grower 
or have a home garden. 
PATHFINDER (Perfect)—This variety is growing in 
popularity rapidly. It will bear an immense crop of very large 
and attractive berries. It is an exceptional plantmaker and, 
in our opinion, is next to Howard in profits for commercial 
growers. It is rated as being resistant to Red Stele disease 
and we recommend it to all growers who have had this disease 
on their farms. 
DORSETT (Perfect)—This is one of the sweetest berries 
grown. As it makes a nice lot of plants, it is a fine variety to_ 
use in the home garden along with Howard and some late 
variety. It starts to bear a few days after Howard and general- 
ly lasts about ten days. 
MIDLAND (Perfect)—This is rated as being one of the 
best of the new varieties of strawberries. The berries are 
large, with a glossy shine and will stand up well when shipped. 
The plants are reported as being very productive. Supply 
limited. 
SUCCESS (Perfect)—This variety is popular in certain 
local section. Produces good sized berries very early which 
are somewhat uneven in shape. Does best on light, well drained 
soils. Supply limited.
