EVERBEARING STRAWBERRIES

We are making a specialty of growing Everbearing Strawberry Plants ; believe we have one of the best fields of these to be found in the country; our plants are genuine, we have about 1,000,000 of the Superb and Progressive. The Americus do not do well with us, the Productive is almost worthless, so we are not offering either of these.

Progressive Adth us this has proved to be the best of the Ever- bearers as a fall cropper ; they are so persistent in producing berries that many of the runner plants send out fruit stems before they do roots ; this variety will yield a heavy crop the same year the plants are set. Berries are medium in size and of excellent quality, their flavor is superior to most of the June varieties. There have been a great many plants sold as Progressive which proved to be Senator Dunlap. Genuine plants of this variety are scarce. Per dozen, 40 cents; per 100, $1.75; per 1,000, $12.00.

Superb. This is one of the most profitable Strawberries to grow and next to Progressive, the best of the fall-bearing varieties ; it does not produce as many quarts of berries in the fall as the Progressive but the berries are large as the very largest spring varieties, and almost perfect in shape ; as a spring cropper it is one of the most productive berries ever introduced, and is well worth the price charged for the plants for its spring fruiting qualities alone. 40c doz.; $1.50 per 100; $10.00 per 1,000.
