INTRODUCTION. 


EK HAVE pleasure in again sending to our friends 
and patrons our Handy Pocket Price-List, which 
has met with such general approval as being 

concise and easy of reference. (Anyone desiring full 
and descriptive catalogue can obtain it on application 
to us. ) 

Never before in the history of the Nursery trade 
has there been an opportunity to purchase stock at 
such low prices as we now offer. All have thus a 
chance to plant orchards at a merely nominal cost; 
and what improves an estate or farm so much as a 
good orchard? No better investment can be made, 
even without considering the health-giving influence 
of the abundant use of fruit. 

Our stock for fall is unusually fine, having had one of the 
best growing seasons for many years. We can therefore 
guarantee that no better stock can be had anywhere, or 
more carefully grown. We further guarantee our stock to 
be up to grade, free from all diseases or obnoxious insects, 
carefully handled, and packed in the best manner to insure 
arrival in good condition. 

Of our recent introductions of fruit, we can specially 
recommend the Eldorado Blackberry and the 
Star Strawberry, both of which have fully borne 
out our claims. In order to have these sterling small 
fruits more generally planted, we have considerably 
reduced the prices. We also offer many other valuable 
varieties, new and old. 

Estimates cheerfully furnished at lowest possible 
prices, and correspondence invited from intending 
purchasers.

TERMS AND ADVICE. 


CASH WITH ORDER. Address all Mail to Reid’s 
Nurseries, Bridgeport, Ohio; we have a_ special 
pouch from the Post Office. Remit by Post Office or 
Express Money Order, or Draft on New York or 
Chicago. 

C. 0. D. We will send stock in this way, provided 
one-fourth the amount is sent with the order, and the 
purchaser pays return charges on the money. 

ORDER EARLY. You have everything to gain by 
sending in your order early. Don’t delay, as some 
stock is apt to be exhausted before the season ends. 

ESTIMATES will be cheerfully furnished on large 
orders. In many cases we can quote less than cata- 
logue rates where our stock is in surplus. 

OUR PRICES include packing. Orders are delivered 
free to the forwarders here, when our responsibility 
ceases. In case of delay, we will do our utmost to 
expedite delivery. 

SHIPPING FACILITIES. No Nursery in the country 
has better means of transportation than we, as we can 
reach every point in the land over the following roads 
and connections: B. & O.; P., CC: & Shoo eee 
W. & L. E.; C, L. & W. (which is run by the 
Big Four in connection with the L. S. & M.S.), and 
the Ohio River Railroad. We can also ship by the 
Ohio River steamers, which are very handy, and their 
freight rates are low. 

FORMER PRICES are set aside, as this list abrogates 
all previous prices. 

GUARANTY. All our stock is true to name and 
carefully labeled; yet, while we exercise the greatest 
care to do this, we will not be held responsible for 
any sum greater than the cost of stock, and when 
varieties become exhausted we reserve the right to 
substitute others of the same class and value, except 
when orders are marked ‘‘ No substitution.’’ 

PACKING SEASON. We commence packing about 
the ist of October, and continue till the ground 
freezes — usually about the 15th of December.

Fruit Trees. 


FALL} PLANTING. ‘Those who 
contemplate planting trees in the near 
future will do well to set in the Fall. 
} This is the best time to set all kinds of 

Wi nursery stock that is hardy and will 
stand the Winter. It is not only the best, but can be done 
to better advantage than in the Spring. The ground is in 
better condition, you are not so rushed for time, and the 
work can be more thoroughly done. Still further, a tree 
set in November will make twice the growth the following 
Summer of one set in April. 

There is no necessity for a planter who understands the 
art of setting to miss a single tree. We recommend Fall 
as the best time in the year to set trees, 


Apples. 


The first fruit, both in importance and general culture, 
is the Apple. Its period, unlike that of other fruits, 
extends nearly or quite through the year. By planting 
judicious selections of summer, autumn and winter sorts, 
a constant succession can be easily obtained of this fruit, 
so indispensable for family use. There is no farm crop 
which on the average will produce one-fourth as much 
income per acre as will a good Apple orchard. Prices 
as follows, except where noted. Boxed and baled free. 


Thousand rates on application.

Pears. 


The Pear, like most other things highly desirable and 
valuable, cannot be had without attention, labor and skill. 
The relative price of the apple and Pear being about as 
I to Io, shows at the same time the superior value of the 
latter, and the greater skill required to bring it to perfec- 
tion. Summer Pears should be gathered at least Io days 
before they are ripe, and autumn Pears at least a fort- 
night. Winter varieties, if they will hang so long, may 
be left until the leaves begin to fall.

Peaches. 


The Peach tree requires a well-drained, moderately 
rich soil ; a warm, sandy loam is probably best. To pre- 
serve the continued healthy growth of the trees and the 
fine quality of the fruit, the trees should have the shoots 
and branches shortened every year, so as to preserve a 
round, vigorous head with plenty of young wood; and 
the land should not be seeded to grass, but kept in con- 

Rope cultivation in hoed crops. 

LORENTZ. A seedling discovered in Marshall county, 

/ West Virginia, and which we carefully watched several 
years before deciding to offer to the public. We are 
now more than ever convinced that this is something 
better than has ever been offered fora Peach so late in 
the season. We have never known it to fail a crop in 
the most adverse seasons, and believe it as near frost- 
proof as any variety yet introduced. It bears craps when 
others fail entirely. Fruit is unusually large and of a 
superior flavor, especially for one so late in the season. 
It isa freestone, yellow-fleshed, and its handsome appear- 
ance has been a surprise to all who have seen it. It 
bears enormously, one foot of wood cut for photograph-

ing having as many as 25 Peaches on, and frequently 
requires thinning from overproduction. We feel confi- 
dent Lorentz is the best late Peach ever introduced; does 
not crack, is very firm, keeps well, and is a fine shipper, at 
prices double those obtained for any other late Peach on 
the market. We have a large demand for the trees 
where known, and as the stock is somewhat limited, 
would advise patrons to order early.

Plums. 


The Plum, like the pear and other finer fruits, attains 
its greatest perfection on our heavy soil, being entirely 
free from disease. The curculio, a small, dark brown 
beetle, often stings the fruit, causing it to drop off; but 
the following directions, faithfully observed, will secure 
a good crop of this splendid fruit everywhere. 

‘As soon as the blossoms are fallen, spread two sheets 
under the tree, and give the tree a sudden jar by striking 
a smart blow with a hammer upon the stub of a limb 
sawed from the tree for the purpose; the insects will 
drop on the sheet, and can be killed. Collect all the 
fallen fruit and burn or feed to swine. Repeat the 
operation every day for two or three weeks. It should 
be done before sunrise.

Cherries. 


The Cherry tree universally requires a dry soil, and is 
naturally a hardy tree, succeeding in the lightest soil or 
dryest situations. The Heart and Bigarreau varieties 
are of rapid growth, with large, glossy leaves, forming 
fine pyramidal-shaped heads, and producing large crops 
of luscious fruit; are well adapted for planting along 
streets, or in yards as shade trees.

Dut Trees. 


Nut culture is an industry that until recently has 
received but little attention. The large returns of $25 to 
$50 from individual trees, and the immense profits from 
established orchards, have stimulated the interest, and 
our foremost enterprising fruit-growers are planting nut 
trees largely for market purposes; and others who enjoy 
the nuts during winter are realizing that in order to have 
an abundant supply it is only necessary to plant the trees, 
as hardy varieties are now grown that succeed in all 
sections of the United States.

V Strawberries. 


STAR. This berry is largeand handsome in appear- 
ance, measuring 6 to 7 inches in circumference, on the 
average. It is as near perfection in shape as possible, 
somewhat resembling the Gandy, but not quite so dark 
in color. It is a beautiful glossy crimson, and colors all 
over at the same time, being an ideal berry in this 
respect. All the berries average large from first to last, 
with no small or ill-shaped berries throughout the entire 

’ season. In quality it is of the best. All who have tested 
it pronounce it the best they have ever eaten. 

In productiveness we have never seen the equal of the 
Star. It matures all its berries in a dry season, possess- 
ing the greatest drought-resisting qualities of any berry 
we are acquainted with, having matured a full crop when 
all the ordinary varieties were complete failures. The 
plant is a vigorous and strong grower, with healthy 
green foliage, deep-rooted and very prolific, being a 
staminate, or perfect variety. Season of ripening is 
second early. 


N ELEANOR. This Strawberry isa chance seedling found 
in Atlantic county, N. J., and has been thoroughly tested 
in field culture for several years. It is the earliest large 
berry and the most prolific early variety yet offered,

BISMARCK. This is a seedling of Bubach No. 5, pol- 
lenized by the Van Deman. The plant resembles No. 5 
in every way, 
only is more 
robust and 
stocky, with the 
same ironclad 
foliage. The 
berries are pro- 
duced in abun- 
dance, outyield- 
ing No. 5; shape 
obtuse conical, 
never cox- 
combed; it is 
the heaviest 
berry we have 
ever Seen or 
grown; color 
bright scarlet, 
no green tips; 
very firm, good 
flavor and ship- 
per. Season 
medium to very 
late. Blossom 
perfect. 


CHAMPION OF ENGLAND. This berry was brought 
from England by an English gardener some years ago, 
and has been kept and grown by him exclusively for 
market. The plant is one of the strongest grown, very 
large and healthy. It has also a perfect blossom, and is 
medium early. The fruit is immense in size; 14 berries 
have been picked from it that filled a quart basket. The 
berry has a bright, polished surface, and is unusually firm 


aot for so large a fruit. 

BRUNETTE. Mr. G. Cowing, the originator, with 
whom it has fruited seven years, has described it thus: 
““Tts berries are above medium size, round, and almost 
invariably perfect ; of a dark mahogany color when fully 
ripe—a shade darker than Warfield—and without any 
white tip. The plantis astrong grower, and as free from 
rust as any variety now cultivated. Flower perfect. The 
fruit is quite firm, very handsome, and remarkable for 
its exquisite flavor.’’

50 cts. per doz., $1 per 100, $7 per I,000. 


Blackberries. 


ELDORADO. The most valuable Blackberry ever 
put on the market, and is endorsed by the strongest 
commendations from the highest authority on fruits. 
It has been cultivated 12 years, and under careful test at 
different experiment stations for four years has never 
winter-killed or failed to produce a full crop of the finest 
fruit. The vines are very vigorous and hardy, enduring 
the winters of the far northwest, and their yield is enor- 
mous. Berries very large, jet-black, in large clusters, ripen 
well together; very sweet, melting, have no hard core, and 
keep 8 or 1o days after picking with quality unimpaired.

DWARF ROCKY MOUNTAIN CHERRY. 


This is an introduction from the west which originally 
grew wild in the mountains, but 
has been much improved by 
cultivation. It is remarkably 
hardy, a sure annual bearer and 
productive, of very easy culture, 
\ bearing when two years old. 
aa) Fruit of good size, good flavor, 
/ and can be eaten fresh ; is also 
excellent for canning, and is 
more easily pitted than any 
other Cherry. Very desirable 
for the kitchen garden. Price, 
I year, 1o cts. each, $1 per doz., 
$6 per loo; 2 years, 15 cts. each, 
$1.50 per doz., $10 per Ioo. 


’ STRAWBERRY-RASP- 


DWARF ROCKY MOUNTAIN 
CHERRY. BERRY. 


One of the remarkable recent 
introductions from Japan. A beautiful dwarf Raspberry, 
seeming from its characteristics to be a hybrid between 
the raspberry and strawberry. 2 
Bush dies to the ground inthe ; 
fall; makes a handsome, low 
spreading plant, with dark 
green foliage. Fruit is early, 
stands well out from the foli- 
age, size and shape of a straw- 
berry; color, brilliant crimson; 
flavor unique. Io cts. 
each, 75 cts. per doz., $5 


J per Ioo. 


BUFFALO BERRY. 


This fruit resembles a 
small currant, but is of | 
richer taste, and literally 
covers the twigs and 
branches. Esteemed for 
pies, tarts, preserves, 
jellies, etc. 10 cts. each,

THE LOGAN BERRY. 


This berry is unlike any in previous existence—a hy- 
brid between the raspberry and blackberry. ‘The fruit 
is as large as the largest black- 
berry, and is produced in im- 
mense clusters. The color isa 
clear dark red, pleasing to the 
eye. It partakes of the flavor 
of both the blackberry and the 
raspberry—a mild, pleasant, vi- , 
nous flavor, delicious and pecu- @ 
liar to this berry alone. Excel- } 
lent for all purposes. Seeds 
small, soft and few. Berries 
very firm, and carry well. Vine 
or cane strong grower, Io feet 
and more in a season; enor- 
mous bearer. Fruit ripens 
early, just after strawberries, 
nearly all being gone before 
blackberries or raspberries be- 
come plentiful. Always sells ax 
at a high price. Color resem- ds ees aa 


bles the Se raspberry. 20 cts. each, $2 per doz. 
GOLDEN MAYSBERRY. 


The earliest Raspberry ever known. The berries are 
of a golden straw color, as large as Cuthbert, and ripen 
here a month before Hansell, before strawberries, and 
before the earliest of the standard Raspberries of the past 
have hardly awakened from their winter rest. The 
bushes are distinct from all others, growing like trees, 6 
to 8 feet high, with spreading tops, and all along the 
branches large, white, bell-shaped blossoms are pendent, 
soon followed by the great, sweet, glossy, golden, semi- 
Tae berries. 15 cts. each, $1 per doz., $6 per Ioo. 


CYDONIA JAPONICA (Columbia). 
(Edible Japan Quince.) 

This new edible fruit has been evolved from the com- 
mon Japan Quince. The introducer claims that it is very 
valuable for culinary purposes, and that his crop is en- 
gaged in advance for making jelly, which is delicious. 
Tree is very hardy, healthy, productive and free from 
disease. 30 cts. each, $3 per doz.

“ELEAGNUS LONGIPES. 


This new and valuable acquisition, a native of Japan, is 
one of our most promising new fruits, and we highly 
recommend it for more general planting. The bush 
begins to bear at two years old, and the fruit is very 
highly prized by all who have fruited it, for its peculiar 
piquancy, making a very delicious sauce, considered 
much superer to the cranberry. toc. each, $1.50 per doz.
