BLAKEMORE 
Our “Number One” berry this 
year. We will have a larger sup- 
ply of this variety than any other 
to offer you, and we feel that we 
have concentrated on the “Num- 
ber One” where quality and pro- 
ductiveness are concerned. The 
Blakemore has been successfully 
grown from Maryland to Califor- 
nia. Ninety-nine per cent of the 
berries shipped from White Coun- 
ty, Arkansas, the second largest 
berry growing district in the coun- 
try, are Blakemore. 
The Blakemore is firmer than 
either of its parents. It will not 
puff and become soft during hot, moist weather. It will not bleed unless given unnecessary abuse and, un- 
like many other early berries, it retains its bright red coloring long after picking. This fact, coupled with 
its earliness, gives it a great advantage in the wholesale markets. 
As a plant maker, a shipping berry, and a prolific yielder, it has not been surpassed, and added to these 
qualities is the fact that it will grow and yield a fair crop under conditions unfavorable to berry culture. 
Where other varieties of early strawberries will grow and yield, we firmly believe that the Blakemore will 
grow better, yield more berries of a better quality than the other varieties. The Blakemore is a tart ber- 
ry of the Missionary type. It is slightly blunted at the point, conic-shaped, with broad shoulders. Its 
bright green cap curls upward when the fruit is ripe, making it easy to pick and cap. 
Our customers come back year after year with nothing but praise for the Blakemore. We have fruit- 
ed it ourselves for a number of years, and we recommend it to all growers, both for home use and com- 
mercial purposes. Give us your orders, large or small. We are prepared to fill them. Special quotations on 
25,000 or more. 

PROOF OF WALLER’S NEW GROUND PLANTS 
FAITRMORE 
A cross of the Fairfax and Blakemore and noted for its high quality in firmness, in shipping and very 
productive. The plant growth is very vigorous, making large, but fewer plants than the Blakemore does in 
this section. The leaves are very large, dark and glossy green. Fruit is more uniform in shape than the 
Fairfax. It ripens about the same time as Blakemore. It is recommended for North Carolina and all 
southern states. 
SENATOR DUNLAP 
A favorite with most northern growers, and is well Known wherever strawberries are grown. It is a 
great plant maker and for this reason should not be planted too close together as plants will become to 
thick. Fruit is a bright red, good shipper, and excellent quality, mid-season. 
IMPROVED KLONDIKE 
This sure-cropper is third on our list only for the reason of its scarcity this year. It is the leading 
berry in the East. That it is a favorite is shown by the fact that we sell millions of this old variety even 
after years of testing and improving other varieties. In dessert quality, shipping and plant making, this 
berry cannot be surpassed in climates suitable to its culture. It is the leading berry in North Carolina and 
South Carolina, and is also a leader in California and other extreme Western States. In Louisiana, it ranks 
with the Klonmore as a leading variety. It yields a heavy crop of fancy fruit, and is adapted to a wide 
range of soil conditions. WALLER BROTHERS’ Klondike plants are true-to-name, vigorous and healthy.
