The Klonmore should be given a trial by growers, espe- 
cially by Klondike growers here in Southern California, 
as it might prove superior to Klondike for conditions here 
as it has in Louisiana, where Klondike has previously been 
the leading variety as it is here. 
MARSHALL STRAWBERRY 
This has been for years the leading variety in 
the Pacific’ Northwest, Oregon, Washington, I[daho, Utah, 
etc., as well as in parts of California, a beautiful berry 
of delicious flavor and very desirable both as.a fresh mar- 
ket variety and for quic, freezing, for which it is used 
extensively. It is a little soft for long distance ship- 
ping. 
The plants we offer of this variety are grown from Qer- 
tified plants from the best planting of Certified Marshall 
‘in Oregon, and are very fine plants, disease-free, thrifty 
and vigorous. 
TENNESSEE BEAUTY, SHIPPER AND SUPREME STHKAWBERRIES 
While these varieties have proven very superior in Ken- 
tucky, Tennessee, etc., a trial of them in Central Calif- 
ornia did not do well. They may do well in other parts of 
the West, and would be worth testing. 
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA STRAWBERRIES 
These varieties, Shasta, Sierra, Lassen, Donner, Tahoe 
and 467.1 have become very popular in California, being 
extensively grown in Central and Northern California and 
to a considerable extent in Southern California, as well 
as to some extent in Oregon. Some of them have done well 
at Oxnard in Southern California as well as in Orange Co., 
etc. We have an order from an Oxnard grower for 170,000 
Shasta, Donner, Lassen and 467. 1. In Orange Co the favor- 
rte of these varieties seems to be Sierra. 
See items on Shasta and Sierra in our 1947-48 catalog, 
and see B 690 describing Shasta, Sierra, Lassrn, Donner 
and Tahoe; B 690 can be obtained by writing for it to

467.1 is said to be superior in quality to some of the 
University varieties, early, medium size, good medium 
light color, very good quality, one of the heaviest pro- 
ducers. 
The plants we offer are grown on land which was fumiga- 
ted before planting and is entirely free of insect pests, 
nematodes, weeds and grass, and are the best plants to be 
had,
