Unexcelled Production: A pint per plant the first season, doubled to a 
quart or more the second season under proper growing conditions. 
Unsurpassed as a freezing berry; firm and deep red clear through; 
does not mush-up when thawed. Being honey sweet, it requires little 
additional sugar. Red Rich can be frozen whole! You can make an im- 
portant test with Red Rich by slicing the berry through and noticing the 
deep red color that runs clear though the core. It is the only Strawberry 
that will not mush-up when thawed.

The Vermilion is an early variety, producing fruit early, about the same 
as Premier. The harvesting season extends about two weeks in length. 
The berries are well formed throughout the season. The fruit is medium 
to large, round-conic in shape, smooth and very glossy, evenly dark red 
colored and very attractive in appearance. The fruit is medium in sugar 
content and is more aromatic and higher quality than most other 
varieties. 
The plant itself is a very vigorous grower and has proven in numerous 
tests in the University of Illinois, to be red stele resistant, as well as 
resistant to leaf spot, leaf blight, etc. The flowers are perfect. 
It is proven to be a very prolific and a very profitable variety for 
commercial growers as well.

A new June bearing variety released by the Missouri Experiment Sta- 
tion, has proved superior to standard varieties with which it has been 
compared in .seven years of trials. It continues fruiting over a long 
period and leaves a good row for following year’s crop, It rates the 
equal of Premier quality. Not only does it have superior handling and 
shipping qualities but it has shown up as more productive on old land 
than any of 60 other varieties. 
Che CNew VALENTINE Rhubarb 
A splendid new Rhubarb that will replace all other varieties 
in very short order. Valentine is the latest and best of the red- 
stemmed Rhubarb introductions. It has the best flavor, the 
best color, and requires the least amount of sweetening. It 
produces dark red stems which are dark red clear through to 
the heart. When cooked, makes a tempting looking dish of the 
sweetest and finest flavored, most beautiful red sauce. The 
plant grows fast and produces an immense amount of stems. 
Stock is not too plentiful of this novelty, but six divisions 
are enough for the average family. Also remember that 
Rhubarb is what might be called a lifetime plant. Therefore, 
buy the best. A few cents more spread over many years does 
not mean anything. Will produce stems for use first year. 
Each $1.25, Three $3.05, Doz. $9.50
