This Is The Time To Grow More Fruit
Strawberry prices were the best last season that I have ever known them, and the
prospects are for even higher prices this season. Pittsville is one of the largest straw-
berry shipping stations in the country, and I am sure there were not onetenth as many
plants set in this section last spring as there has been in the preceding springs, and
from the reports that I have received this was the case all over the country. There were
several causes for this: scarcity of labor to set the plants, and the growers did not know
whether they would be able to get what they already had growing picked or not; the
railroads were so overtaxed with freight that it looked as if they would have very poor
and slow deliveries, even if they could get them picked. All in all, there certainly was
not much encouragement to plant a very large acreage, but when picking time came every-
thing was exactly the opposite of what was expected; there were plenty of pickers,
transportation was the best in years, and ideal weather the season through. And as pre-
dicted in my last season’s catalog, we cleared the most money per acre that we have ever
done. If the weather is favorable at picking time I can’t see why prices will not be
higher this season than they were last. I also look for very good prices for the next
two or three seasons at least. Plants are very scarce and nurserymen have not anything
like enough to supply the demand there will be for them this season. The extremely dry,
hot, windy weather last summer was the hardest on plant growth that I have ever experi-
enced. While I increased my acreage I will not have 50 per cent. of a crop of plants, but
what I have are the best rooted that I ever saw; they have had plenty of room to grow and
took advantage of it.
This shortage of plants, with increase in cost of labor, fertilizer and all that enters
into the growing, digging and packing of the plants has forced me to charge higher prices
for them this season, but I promise you that just as soon as it is possible the price will be
lowered. At this writing I have orders booked for more than half my entire stock of
plants, and could have sold all of them at wholesale but did not think it fair to my regu
lar customers to do so. If you expect to set a patch of strawberries this spring order your
plants just as early as you know what you will want—don’t fail to do this, whether you
place your order with me or some other grower. Last season I had to return lots of orders
because they were received after I had sold out of the stock ordered, and the supply is even
less this season that it was last; but while I advise you to set plants this season don’t
set more than you can properly care for. We need all the focd that we can grow, and any
planting stock that is wasted cuts our food supply that much.
Since writing the above peace has been daclared. This will mean a bigger demand for
our foodstuffs. We will now have to help feed the peoples we have been fighting, as they
are not in a position to grow enough to feed themselves. This should cause even higher
prices than formerly.
Yours for a Successful Year,

Strawberry Plants
CHESA PEAKE— One of the very best mid-season to late varieties.
Description of Varieties
nye
“ AMANDA.
varieties grown; the plants are vigorous, healthy,
large and upright in growth; blossoms are perfect.
Growers wishing an extra-large, good-quality berry
should plant some Amanda. It is also a very heavy
fruiter and a berry that should bring top prices on
any market which appreciates large, faney fruit.
AROMA. One of the best late varieties. Plants are
large, very vigorous and healthy; fruit large to very
large, roundish, of a bright glossy red, of excellent
quality and one of the most productive late varieties.
Can always be depended on to bear a good crop of
fine” berries.
~ BEDERWOOD. A good early variety for home use
or market. It is a splendid grower, making a large
number of strong runners. It has a perfect blossom
and immensely prolific. Fruit of good size, light red,
medium firm, and good quality.
BUBACH. Its large and uniform size, fine form
and color, unsurpassed productiveness and great vigor
combine to make it one of the leading market sorts.
BRANDYWINE. A
vigorous, perfect-blooming
' plant; tall fruit-stalks; broad, heavy dark green fol-
iage. Plants productive, having four and five stalks
heavily loaded with large to very large berries.
Medium red, somewhat like Gandy, only a little more
dull; large yellow seeds on surface Flesh red clesr
through, firm, somewhat acid, but with sprightly
flavor; ripens medium to quite late. Does best on
heavy loam or heavy clay.
One of the very best largefruiting — BIG VALLEY.
“ CHESAPEAKE.
If you have a local market that
demands something extra large and fancy this will
fill the bill. A mid-season variety producing berries
of the most excellent flavor, not too acid, but just a
mild, sweet flavor. Very productive. Try it.
Undoubtedly the most popular
berry grown today and deservedly so. I have never
seen a more perfect berry; the berries are extra large
and hold up wel! to the last picking; very firm, and
I do not know of a better shipper, carrying to the
distant markets in perfect condition; flavor unex-
celled ; a heavy cropper and makes just enough plants
for a good fruiting bed, the plants are large and
healthy. If I had to confine myself to just one
variety of strawberries as a profit-maker I would un-
hesitatingly choose Chesapeake. The price of Chesa-
peake plants will never be so low as most other varie-
ties on account of it making just enough plants for
a good fruiting bed and it pays growers much more
profit to pick the berries than it does to sell the
plants. I only have a limited stock of these thi
season as they did not make more than one-half as
many plants as they usually do and I have had to
inerease my prices for them, but even at this price
I believe you will find them a good buy.
CHAMPION K. A seedling of Klondyke, which it
resembles but is larger in both fruit and plant. I
have fruited it two seasons and the more I see of it
the better I like it. I consider it a real improvement
on the Klondyke. If you have been growing Klon-
dyke, try a few Champion K. and I am sure you will
_like it.

CAMPBELL’S EARLY —Said to be the best early berry grown in New Jersey.
CAMPBELL’S EARLY. This is a new extra-early
variety of great promise. In New Jersey where it
originated the growers are very enthusiastic over it.
One leading grower says: ‘‘Campbell’s Early comes
in ahead of them all, growing from such large,
‘healthy plants with a light green, waxy, upright
foliage protecting the great crop of large, beautiful,
rich red berries. They have a beautiful green calyx
and come second to none in flavor. One of the most
wonderful features of the Campbell’s Early is that
practically all grow to full size and no knotty, ill-
shaped berries; they ripen perfectly all over with no
green ends. They are fine, vigorous growers, have
perfect blossoms, and will retain their firmness in
carrying to distant markets.
CHARLES FIRST. The introducer claimed this
would ripen nearly a week earlier than Michel’s Early,
but with me it ripens at about the same time. Every
season excepting one since I have been growing it I
have sold out of plants very early. It is a very popu-
lar seller and must have some extra good qualities.
The berries are very large, regular in form and of
good quality.
CORSICAN. A favorite home and nearby market
variety in many sections. It is one of the very
largest, holding its size well through the season,
beautiful dark crimson color, rich and _ delicious.
Plant a strong grower with good healthy foliage, pro-
ducing large crops.
DORMAN. A big and reliable producer of extra-
large heart shaped berries of a bright red color and
high quality. Claimed to sell for more on the
Chicago market than any other variety. A good one
for the home table as well as for market.
DR. BURRILL. A new variety that is growing
very popular, somewhat resembling Senator Dunlap
in appearance. The berries are large and beautifully
formed. The surface of the berry is a deep glossy
red, the meat is solid and rich. As a canner it sur-
passes Warfield. In flavor it is milder and more
delicious than Senator Dunlap. The berries are ex-
cellent shippers and good keepers. An ideal berry for
either home use or for the market.
ETTERSBURG No. 80. Very productive of fine red
berries, that are of large size and have a large, clean-
cut green calyx or hull. The blossoms are very large
and the runners very strong. The plant is extra
vigorous and deep rooting and the foliage leathery.
In the fall of the year the foliage is of a bluish cast.
The fresh fruit is of fine dessert quality, and for
flavor as a canned berry it is the very best, a deli-
ciousness found in no other variety. It is red and
red to the center, and will not break up in processing.
EARLY JERSEY GIANT. Ripen with the very
earliest. Berries very large, brilliant scarlet-crimson,
conical with pointed tip, colors all over at once, has
delightful and rich mild wild strawberry flavor. Large
light: green calyx or ‘“‘cap,’’ hence exceedingly showy
and attractive. Blossoms large, perfect, rather late,
thereby missing the late frosts. Plant is a strong
grower with large leaves on long pliant stems and a
heavy yielder. I have never had enough Early Jersey
Giant plants to supply my demand for them.
DR. BURRILL—Sure to grow and bear.

TU
GANDY-— One of the oldest and best very late berries on my list.
A
“ EDMUND WILSON. A unique variety. On good
soil the plants attain a height of twelve to fifteen
inches with a spread of fully a foot and are enor-
mously prolific. The berries are very large, globular
or bluntly heart shape, of deep maroon color with
smooth surface and quite firm. Perhaps the richest
in sugary lusciousness of all. Ripens in mid-season.
EKEY. A vigorous growing variety that produces
an abundance of large conical berries. The berries
are of good quality and are firm enough to ship. The
blossoms are perfect and produce an abundance of
pollen. If you ship berries to the Philadelphia mar-
ket you should plant some Ekey; it brings a premium
over other sorts. Also good for home market.
-— GLEN MARY. Probably no variety of strawberries
will produce more quarts per acre than Glen Mary.
It is very popular throughout the northern half of the
United States and especially in Pennsylvania, New
York and New England. Firm enough for distant
shipping. It is of handsome appearance and good
quality. The fruit is of large size and dark red in
color with prominent seeds of bright yellow. The
meat is so rich and juicy and of such high flavor
that, when once eaten, more is wanted. Glen Mary
is a strong grower which makes large, healthy plants,
with an abundance of dark green foliage. Not only
is Glen Mary a heavy cropper, but the berries are of
such quality and attractiveness that they bring top
prices on the market.
GANDY. One of the universal favorites, and as
a ‘‘money-maker’’ hard to beat. A good grower with
tall healthy foliage, and produces large, dark crim-
son berries, that when fully ripe, are of excellent
quality. It is a splendid berry and always brings
fancy prices. ._A free plant maker and a good
grower, while its extra firmness makes it keep on
the vines longer than almost any I know. Late. If
you grow late strawberries you need Gandy.
GOLD DOLLAR. Produces a heavy crop of large-
sized, highly colored berries that are perfect in shape.
It has perfect blossoms, every one of which matures
a good berry.
Ripens medium early.
~ HUSTLER. It is a vigorous grower, making a few
large, strong plants rather than many small ones.
The fruit averages large in size, is quite uniform,
and firm enough to ship to a distant market. The
berries are a rich scarlet in color, most excellent in
quality and altogether one of the handsomest berries
that I know. The blossoms are imperfect. With its
big green cap, it is a variety that attracts the atten-
tion of buyers and nearly always sells at a premium.
HOWARD No. 17. A new variety from Connecti-
cut. Described by a reliable Connecticut grower as
follows: ‘““The earliest fancy variety that I have ever
seen. The first fruit to ripen is fully as large as
Chesapeake, fully as firm and the quality fully as
good. It is of the same cone shape and the color
much the same, possibly not quite so dark but glossy
and handsome. Will yield three times as much fruit
as Chesapeake and is on the job a week before Chesa-
peake begins to ripen. So great is my faith in this
variety that more than one-half of all I set the com-
ing spring will be Howard No. 17. This variety has
come in competition with hundreds of competitors on
the grounds of the Connecticut Agricultural College
and vanquished them all, not only for one or two
years, mind you, but for ten years.’’ I have never
fruited it except on plants set spring, but they were
fine and so favorably impressed was I with them that
I expect to set a nice lot of them this spring for
fruit. How many do you want? I only have about
twenty thousand to sell, so get your order in early.
LL“ HAVERLAND. Exceedingly productive. Fruit
large and fine. One of the most popular of the well-
tested varieties. It will stand more frost than most
any other variety, often bearing large crops when
others are killed. We can always depend on a large
crop. Few varieties will produce more fruit per acre
or sell for more money. The demand for plants is
always great.
Y HERITAGE. A long season variety— from quite
early until quite late. The berries are large, many
of them very large, and the yield is heavy. The
quality is fair and the texture firm. The plants are
vigorous and healthy, and yield so bountifully it has
much value.

JOE JOHNSON~— Will make you big money
HUNDRED DOLLAR. A very valuable and mid-
season variety. The introducer’s claim that ‘there is
not another variety of strawberry that will outyield
this giant or surpass it in quality’’ has to a large
degree been fulfilled. The plant is a strong, vigorous
grower, and among the most prolific. The berries
average very large indeed, the color is bright scarlet
and the quality mild, sweet and luscious. t is not
very firm—not firm enough for long shipment. There
are indeed few varieties more valuable for nearby
markets or for the home garden.
JOE JOHNSON (BIG JOE). This is one of the
best berries on the list. Above medium in size,
almost perfect in shape, very solid, bright red in color,
and a good heavy bearer for so large a berry. The
fruit is borne on long stiff stems, well up from: the
ground. Plants are very large and deep-rooted.
Strong grower, dark green in color. A bed of Joe
Johnson in fruit is about as handsome a sight as
one often sees and it is a money-maker for both
nearby and distant markets. Don’t fail to plant
Joe Johnson.
KELLOGG’S PREMIER.
introducer’s description:
I am giving a part of the
“Kelloge’s Premier is dis-
tinectly in a class by itself. In productiveness it is a
wonder. The berries are mammoth in size, beauti-
fully formed, bright, rich red through and through,
delicious in flavor, and a splendid shipper. In one
word, every berry is a show-berry and a prize-winner.
It is the money-making king of all early berries.
Last year the Premier began ripening berries fully
a week earlier than any other variety, and continued
to fruit heavily for more than four weeks. And the
last picking was as good as the first. Another quality
in which the Premier excels is that of a pollenizer
for pistillate varieties, a characteristic of unusual
value because of its long blooming season. If you
believe you have already seen the greatest early berry,
but as yet never seen Kellogg’s Premier, you still
have something worth while to discover in the straw-
berry world. And if you would grow strawberries
that will sell at your own price, no matter how many
other berries are on the market, the Premier is the
variety for you to choose.”
KELLOGG’S PRIZE. A pistillate variety with a
very long fruiting season. It thrives in soils of every
class, and yields immense quantities of large, perfectly
formed berries, highly colored from center to circum-
ference, its golden seeds lending a gloss to the sur-
face of surpassing brilliancy and beauty. There is no
other berry having a flavor of greater delicacy. Foli-
age large and healthy; calyx large and green. One
of the heaviest fruiters I have ‘ever grown, and I
recommend them to you for trial.
KELLOGG’S BIG LATE. The introducer says of
Big Late—It has been thoroughly tested for three
years and each year it has outyielded all of the old
standard late varieties. When it comes to quali:y
and flavor, its berries are in every way superior to
the berries of any other variety with which we are
acquainted. The originator says that the berries are
so firm that they carry to remotely distant parts
and arrive in prime condition. It is a strong, vigor-
ous-growing pistillate with large healthy leaves, and
it roots very deeply. The berries are produced in
clusters on long fruiting stalks. The color of the
berries is a deep scarlet, seeds bright yellow, calyx
bright green, and fruit stems are large, making a
combination which attracts the attention of the buyer,
no matter how many other berries are offered in
competition.
KLONDYKE. Berries uniform in shape and size,
dark red, mild and delicious, very handsome. Plants
make a remarkable growth, are tall and compact,
stalks strong, leaves light green, makes abundant
runners and an unusual number of crowns. One of
the very best paying early varieties, and is such a
good shipper that its appearance in the market causes
it to be eagerly bought by those who are ready to
pay good prices for fancy fruit. Plant Klondyke for
more trade and more profit.
LADY CORNEILLE. Claimed by many to be better
than Klondyke. It makes plenty of plants on any
soil. Blossoms perfect. The fruit is large, conical,
rich dark red, covered with golden seeds which adds
to its firmness. It is more productive than Klondyke
and adapted to light or stiff soils and is extensively
planted in a great many sections,
LATE JERSEY GIANT. Plants are very large and
vigorous. Fruit is heart-shaped, uniform in shape
and size; exceedingly productive, firm and of the
very best quality. A rather new variety, but is ex-
tensively planted by all that have given it a trial.
The berries are produced in clusters on large strong
fruit stocks.
LUPTON. The introducer describes it as follows:
The plant is healthy and long-lived, foliage heavy,
dark green, fruit stalks short, berries set under the
leaves and well protected; flower perfect, berry large,
bright red, glossy, and doesn’t turn dark after being
picked. Its season is about five days ahead of the
Gandy, from which it is a seedling and lasts nearly
as long. I have grown all the leading varieties by
the Lupton, but have never found one that would
produce with it. It sells for the _ highest market
prices and is especially recommended by commission
merchants for long distance shipment on account of
its firmness and good keeping qualities.

MAGIC GEM—Truly a gem and a heavy fruiter of extra fancy berries. Try it.
MAGIC GEM. A mid-season-to-late variety origi-
nated by Edward Vance of Idaho. Because of the un-
usually large size and high quality of the berries
and its long fruiting season, Mr. Vance has con-
trolled the strawberry trade in his local market.
The berries are not only large and abundant but
they also are beautifully formed and are distinctly
cone-shaped. The berries are highly colored, being
dark red with a glossy surface, and bright yellow
seeds which are imbedded in the surface just deep
enough to produce a beautiful contrast. The flavor
of the fruit is mild and delicious. The calyx is a
dark, rich green, which adds to the beauty of the
berry. The berries are very firm and ship exceed-
ingly well.
MATTHEWS. A new variety of the Klondyke type
that has given great satisfaction where it has been
grown. The berries are uniform in size, light in
color, and of firm texture, resembling the Klondyke ;
but the fruit is larger and more pointed and has a
more attractice cap than Klondyke. Most important
of all, it produces more berries per acre. If you are
growing berries for distant markets, you should try
the Matthews.
MESSENGER. The fruit begins ripening with the
early varieties and continues for a long season. The
berry is of- extra large size, well colored, and very
firm, making it a good shipper, excellent flavor, a
good market or home table berry. The plants are
exceedingly vigorous—the strongest of any early
berry I ever saw. The foliage is clean and healthy,
almost, if not quite as rank as the Chesapeake, which
it resembles very much. I believe this berry will prove
a money-maker to those who plant it and I advise
you to secure enough of the plants to give it a
thorough test.
MARSHALL. Too well known to need any ex-
tended description. This is a berry that has been
so popular in the New England market for years,
where the grocers are always delighted to get it on
account of its rich dark red color, that it is bound
to attract and please customers. It is one of the
richest flavored strawberries grown. It is a strictly
fancy berry. Mid-season. I have the finest and larg-
est stock of Marshall this year that I have ever
grown.

MISSIONARY. A _ variety that

making plants freely; early to mature, coming in
right after Excelsior, and very productive. The
berries are well colored, firm, large, and hold their
size well throughout the season. It is a good shipper,
haying a tough skin not easily broken by handling.
MICHAEL’S EARLY. An old favorite. For eating
from the vines after it is full ripe there is probably
nothing better. Those who have a garden or a good
local market for an extra early berry will find the
Michael’s just what they want.
McKINLEY. Unrivalled as a strawberry of high
quality. Berries large, handsome and freely produced
on strong growing, healthy plants. Ripens in mid-
season and is too tender in texture to endure ship-
ment. It is pre-eminently a variety for the home
garden.

It is a strong grower,
McALPINE. Here is a very fancy mid-season to
late berry if you will not let the plants get too thick
in the bed. It is a very heavy fruiter and I never
saw more perfect berries, large and every one as near
alike as it is possible for a berry to be. The berries
bring the top prices on the markets.
NEW YORK. This is the strawberry that was
awarded a prize of $100 which was offered for the
best and largest variety. The plant is an unusually
robust grower, making but few runners, throwing its
strength and vigor into the magnificent berries,
which are produced in great abundance and are of
immense size. In form they are very handsome and
recular, of a roundish conical shape. Color a crim-
son-searlet, dark, rich and inviting, coloring all over
and leaving no green tips. The flavor is deliciously
rich and melting. For a family strawberry it is one
of the best, but its large size and delicate texture
would possibly prevent the berries from arriving in
good condition in distant markets. This berry is so
popular it has been introduced under many different
names.
NORWOOD. Medium early, the plant is strong
and healthy. The quality is unsurpassed, and the
size unequaled, some attaining enormous size. Color
rignt red all the way through, growing darker with
age; firm, a good keeper, and will ship well.

PITTSVILLE—This new berry will make you money. Plant it.
PARSONS’ BEAUTY. One that may be depended
upon to produce a large crop of fruit every season.
The plants are splendid growers on any soil and
without a sign of disease. The fruit is large, conical,
uniform shape, dark red and fair quality. Largely
planted by commercial growers on account of its vigor
and productiveness.
PITTSVILLE. A new mid-season variety begin-
ning to ripen about the same time as Senator Dun-
iap, which it resembles in some respects but is not
as dark a color and is very firm, making it a good
shipper. Will stay firm a long time after being
picked. Has a beautiful double green cap. Holds its
large size from first ripening until the last pieking.
The plant is large and healthy; very deep rooted,
making it a good one to plant in dry soils.
PAUL JONES. This is one of the best varieties
ever introduced. It always produces a large crop of
the finest fruit on any soil and in any weather. The
fruit is of the larger size and holds its size to the
very last, is of even size and shape and of the finesi
flavor, a splendid keeper and a variety you will make
no mistake in planting.
RYCKMAN. Its great size and productiveness,
thrifty growth and delicious flavor makes it one oc
the most valuable berries ever grown for business
purposes. Many extensive growers say that it pro-
duces even larger crops the second year than it does
the first. It is also noted as an extremely valuable
variety for poor soils and for fruiting continuously
on the same ground for several years. It ripens in
mid-season and is a perfect flowered variety.
SAMPLE. One of the very best strawberries and
a money-making late variety. Sample produces a
very heavy crop of nice, showy berries of large size
and fine quality, continues a long time in fruit, the
berries being large to the last. It will yield as many
berries as Haverland and will average as large as
Bubach. Colors all over at once—fruit vnerfect,
foliage perfect.
SHARPLESS. The standard of quality. Plants
vigorous and _ healthy. Berries very large, light
colored, irregular in shape, but of the very finesi
flavor, sweet and delicious. I have the largest stock
of Sharpless plants that I have ever grown, but the
demand for them is always great, so place your
order as early as possible.

SENATOR DUNLAP. The Dunlap is a variety
that beginners who know practically nothing about
strawberries can succeed with. The foliage is tall,
upright with a long leaf, and hes more than the
ordinary power of developing a heavy crown system.
It has an extra long flowering season; the bloom
is handsome and exceedingly rich in pollen, which
makes it very valuable to plant with such pistillate
kinds as ripen in its season. Its long roots go down
into the sub-soil for moisture, and a severe drought
has less effect on it than most others. The fruit is a
dark red, with a glossy finish, shading to a dark
searlet on the under side, with prominent yellow
seeds that look like gold embedded in highly colored
wax. The meat is bright red all through and exceed-
ingly juicy. For a medium size, very productive, mid-
season berry, don’t hesitate to plant Dunlap.

WM. BELT. A king among strawberries. ‘The
plant is vigorous and succeeds upon a great variety
of soils, and invariably yields very heavily. It begins
to ripen quite early and continues almost to the close
of the season. It is firm and a good shipper and
gives large pickings for a longer period than most
varieties.
WARFIELD. A well-known standard. shipping and
canning berry. Plants very vigorous and productive,
Fruit large, nearly round, dark, glossy red, firm and
of good quality. It seems as if this old variety
gets better all the time.
(4 WARREN. Originated by Mr. S. H. Warren, of
Massachusetts, the well-known strawberry judge who
spent most of his life in growing fancy strawberries,
and he claimed this the best he ever grew. The
fruit is so large and handsome it is one of the first
to sell at a good price, even in a glutted market; it
also is an extra berry to stand up after being
packed, therefore a good shipper.

Fall or Everbearing Strawberries
Another year has proven that fall bearing strawberries are the most valuable addition
to the strawberry world that has ever been known. All over the country people are begin-
ning to realize their possibilities, and those who a year or two ago were skeptical are
now enthusiastic.
Outside of the labor of keeping the blossoms off the first year, their care is no different
than that given the spring sorts, and the returns they will give you the first year alone
will be worth many times the money and labor expended on them.
If you desire to raise fruit for market these fall-bearing varieties will give you an op-
portunity to sell when the strawberry supply is limited. Fall bearing strawberries have
opened up a new field for the commercial grower.
They are no harder to grow than the “June only” kind. For full crops in autumn it
is best to remove all blossoms until about the first or middle of July. In all other respects
they should be given the same treatment as other varieties of strawberries.
Don’t forget that Fall-Bearing Strawberries produce a crop the same year as set. What
is just as important, they produce a big crop the following June the same as the standard
varieties, and then bring another crop in the fall of the second season.
AMERICUS. The plant of the Americus is very system of growing; nor does it produce as many

‘Peerless is better than Superb, being a more vigor-

and fully equal to Superb in quality.’’ After fruiting
Peerless one season I find it all Mr. Cooper claims
for it, especially in the quantity and size of the
fruit. If you are growing Superb, try a few Peerless.
PROGRESSIVE. A wonderful fall-bearing straw-
berry and considered the best by many growers. The
spring-set plants not only produce a big crop of
berries the same season, but the runner plants com-
mence to bear fruit as soon as set, and quite often
you will find a runner plant full of blossoms and
berries before it has made any roots, and in this
way Progressive vields a crop of fruit the first year
that is truly wonderful. The fruit of the Progressive
is of good size, smooth, of good color and appearance.
The plant is a good grower and healthy.
STANDPAT. This would be the best of the fall-
bearing strawberries if it would only make more
plants; the berries are large, and it is one of the
most prolific of them all; very fine flavor and firm.
For the “hill system’’ of growing it is ideal after you
once get the plants. I have only a few hunderd of
the plants, and will supply you as long as my stock
lasts. Price, 10 plants $1.25, 25 plants $2.50.
SUPERB. Some growers consider the Superb the
best of the fall-bearing sorts, but I find the Progress-
ive the best with me. The Superb is not as good a : f
erower as the Progressive, but is ideal for the hill TOP NOTCH~— Big, sweet and productive.

Apple Trees
The apple is easily the first in importance of all fruits, the growing of which is today
one of the leading enterprises of the United States.
It will thrive on any well-drained
soil, its period of ripening extends over a longer period than any other fruit, and by
careful selection of varieties, a constant succession can be obtained.
For family use no fruit is more indispensable or as healthy as the apple.
No one
who has a place to plant should hesitate to plant an orchard, or at least a few trees for
family use.

Everybody delights in the flavor of a fine, juicy peach.
They succeed best on high,
dry and well-drained soil, and are a sure crop if planted on northern or western exposure.
Peaches are borne on wood of the previous season’s growth, and it is essential that
they should be pruned some almost every season to let in light and air and remove dry
branches. Keep your trees in good shape.

growth with a great abundance of healthy, dark green
foliage. The only variety known that gives a crop

thereafter. Plants set in early spring will give a
small crop of fruit the fall following, and the next

CUTHBERT. Red. This is a strong grower with
healthy foliage, and on good soil it is very productive.
Cuthbert is one of the old standard, reliable sorts
that will give a good crop of large red berries of very
fine quality, and it is probably more largely grown
than any other variety.
PLUM FARMER. Black. Berries thick-meated,
firm, with a bloom similar to Gregg; large in size
and attractive when picked ready for market. Matur-
ing its entire crop in a very short period makes it
one of the most profitable of the early market sorts.

DIBBLE’S RUSSET—The best main-crop potato I have ever grown.
SEED POTATOES
DIBBLE’S RUSSET
I am giving the introducer’s description, and I hon-
estly do not believe they can be beat for yield and
quality. If there is a better one, I have never
grown it.
“The vines are strikingly distinet; rich, dark green
in color; very robust and luxuriant in their habit of
growth, completely covering the ground at the height
of their development; extremely disease resistant.
The tubers are round to oblong in shape, of good size,
with pure white flesh, and covered with a russet
skin; few and shallow eyes, and a quality either
baked or boiled that cannot be excelled; they are an
excellent market variety. Dibble’s Russet is enor-
mously productive, as the tubers are as large as those
of the Carman family, such as Rurals, Carmans,
Raleighs, and the like; but where these varieties set
only three to six tubers to the hill, with us, under
identical soil and cultural conditions, the Russet pro-
duces six, eight, ten and twelve tubers to the hill.
are not uncommon, and ninety-nine out of every hun-
dred at least write of their wonderful qualities in the
highest terms.’’
If you are one of the thousands of farmers who
plan to grow only enough potatoes for their own
use, I earnestly recommend the Russet as the best
variety for you to grow on your farm. The Russet
has the healthiest foliage, it is the most productive,
and the tubers have the best quality of any main-crop
variety with which I am acquainted. If you are
growing for market and want new seed, plant Dibble’s
Russet.
Prices: 75c. per peck; $2.50 per bushel. Ask for
prices if you want a larger quantity.
IRISH COBBLER
The Irish Cobbler is the best extra-early White
Potato now grown. The tubers are uniformly smooth,
round, plump and handsome, creamy white, eyes
strong and well developed. The flesh is white and of
splendid. quality. Cobblers do well anywhere. On
Potato soil, or on clay loam or heavy land, they give
good results.
Prices: Same as for Dibble’s Russet.
“On our own farms the Russet is the best potato
we kave ever grown. Many of our customers have
written us that it has outyielded other sorts two
to one, and yields of 300 to 400 bushels to the acre
OCTOBER STRAWBERRIES
One fruit grower in northwestern Missouri has a quarter acre patch of everbearing
strawberries that were set early in April. The plants were manured very heavily; the spring
and summer months were not excessively hot and there was an abundance of rain. He began
picking berries early in July and continued picking from that field until early in November,
during which time he picked and sold $416.20 worth of berries. That is the best record for an
everbearing strawberry patch that has actually come under my observation, but I have seen
a good many other patches that have produced almost as much. From my own experience
with everbearing strawberries and from what I have seen of them in other places, I feel that
there is a great future for this new race of strawberries and that everyone who can spare the
room for them should have a few, say five hundred or a thousand plants. And the fact that
the berries come at such an ususual season of the year makes them taste so much better than
if they came at the same time as our ordinary spring kinds. The strawberry is a fruit one
never tires of eating, and to have the fresh fruit from the field in Jate summer makes them
all the more delicious. —E. H. F. in January 1919 issue of Successful Farming.

A Hedge of California Privet
California Privet
A vigorous-growing hedge, of fine habit, thick, glossy, nearly evergreen ieaves. Of all
ornamental hedge-plants, this is the most highly prized. If cut to the groynd one or two
years after planting, it makes. a very thick hedge right from the bottom, sending up many
strong shoots. The leaves are a rich green, and will remain on the plants nearly all winter,
and if they are a little sheltered they will keep green almost all winter. This is especially
the case if the hedge has attained some age and has frequently been trimmed. Though it
is a very strong grower, it can be kept to a low size by frequent trimming. Where a close,
compact hedge is required I recommend California Privet. Should be planted about 8 to
10 inches apart to give best results.

Barberry Thunbergii
A low, dense shrub, with bright green leaves, assuming beautiful tints of crimson, scar-
let and orange in the autumn, and with brilliant red berries which persist throughout the
winter. Its low, thick growth makes it a very desirable hedge plant, and as it withstands
any amount of trimming, is used extensively for this purpose; it is also used for massing
and for specimen planting. Its extreme hardiness makes this a most valuable pliant for the
North.

Why Tingle’s Plants Grow
Our Strawberry plants are taken from young beds,
fresh dug before shipment; plants are well-rooted
and not dug from old or run-down beds. These plants
are from beds that have never borne a crop and will
bring you best results. In tre fall our ground is
plowed to a good Gepth, and then we broadcast stable
iranure on top of the plowed ground, then let it stay
this way until spring; we then thoroughly pulverize
the soil, and at the same time mixing the manure
with the soil by harrowing. After the plants are set
and begin to make runners we fertilize them with
commercial fertilizers; this is repeated late in the
summer. The deep plowing with an abundance of
plant food given the plants causes them to make a
splendid growth with lots of long, fibrous roots. You
need these kind of plants, and it will pay you to get
them. Which kind of plants had you rather have,
plants that have been carefully grown and that are
full of life, which will produce big crops, or. plants
that have not been fertilized—plants that have been
grown only for quantity without a thought of quality?
If you want the kind that will make you a successful
berry grower, and that will produce you the largest
and best crops, plant Tingle’s full of life plants—
they succeed.
