{ 
NEW ROBINSON 
Alse Known As Scarlet Beauty 
New Giant, Long Season Strawberry 
This variety was found here in Berrien County, Mich- 
igan, several years ago and has been thoroughly tested 
and by this time known as the best late strawberry to 
grow. Robinson is a very large, round, shapely, dark red 
berry which topped the market last summer. Robinson 
is the largest berry we have ever seen, in fact we have 
seen 30 berries fill a quart box, the color is a cardinal 
red; berries have a firm tough skin, and are honey-sweet 
in flavor. Very good plant maker in most any kind of 
soil, Plant Premier and Robinson and you will have 
berries over the entire season. Robinson starts fruiting 
soon after Premier and continues through the late berry 
season, matchless in beauty, flavor and quality. Price: 25 
plants $0.90; 50 for $1.60; 100 for $2.65; 250 for $5.75; 
500 for $8.50; 1000 for $15.00. For larger amounts ask 
for special prices. 
i DUNLAP 
The King of the Canners 
If you love shortcake, you will appreciate one made 
with Dunlap, and a can of them during the winter 
months is a treat. Both the canning factories and the 
housewife demand this variety on account of its splendid 
flavor and dark, rich, beautiful color. During the past 
two decades Dunlap has made more money for the 
Strawberry growers than any other variety. The plants 
are medium in size, long rooted, very prolific and will 
more than hold their own under any rough-and-tumble 
method of cultivation. The best berry for the beginner, 
the easiest Strawberry to grow. Bears early, very pro- 
ductive. Perfect flowering. Prices: 25 plants, $0.95; 50 
for $1.40; 100 for $2.15; 250 for $3.75; 500 for $6.50;

| PREMIER 
EXTRA EARLY --- FROST 
PROOF 
Premier is the greatest 
extra early strawberry of all 
times. It ripens ahead of all 
other varieties, the fruit is 
rich in color, fine in texture, 
excellent in flavor, and of 
unusual quality for shipping. 
Foliage is tough and healthy, 
covering blossoms and ber- 
ries and protecting them 
from frost and scalding sun. 
The plants are sturdy, and 
long rooted, a good drought 
resister. While Premier rip- 
ens early, it is very resistant 
to frost and matures its 
heavy crop of berries so 
that they can be marketed 
while prices are the highest. 
No other variety will give 
you more pleasure, satis- 
faction and profit. Perfect 
flowering. Prices: 25 plants, 
$1.15; 50 for $1.90; 100 for 
$2.85; 250 for $6.35; 500 for 
$9.25; 1000 for $16.00; 2000 
for $31.00; 5000 for $68.00.
