THE BEST VARIETIES IN 
STRAWBERRY PLANTS 
FRUIT, SHADE AND 
ORNAMENTAL TREES 


LEAMON G. TINGLE 


PITTSVILLE 
MARYLAND 


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, 


LEAMON G. TINGLE, Pittsville, Md. 


BEFORE ORDERING READ THIS 


TERMS. Payment invariably, cash in advance. TRUE TO NAME. We use every care to have plants 


Remit by Money Order, Registered Letter or Draft. 


HOW TO QRDER. Send me your order as soon 
as convenient, then I will reserve the steck for you 
and ship when wanted. Be sure to write your name 
and address plainly, and state how goods are to be 
shipped ; whether by Parcel Post, Express or Freight, 
and state plainly to what point you want them sent. 


AT PURCHASER’S RISK. The ownership of all 
goods sold by us passes to the purchaser on delivery 
by us to the carrier, and the issuing of a receipt 
by the carrier ends our responsibility. Any claims 
for damage should be made promptly to the agent 
at the point of delivery. Under no conditions may 
I be held responsible for safe delivery. 

PACKING. I make no charge for packing and de- 
livering to station at prices in this catalog. 

SHIPPING SEASON. I begin filling orders about 
October lst, sometimes a little earlier, and continue 
digging and shipping during the entire fall, winter 
and spring until May lst. We are sometimes delayed 


in January and February and early part of March 
by freezing weather, but usually able to ship at times 
during these months.

sum egreater than the original cost of stock should 
any prove not true to name. 


CLAIMS, if any, must be made on receipt of gocds, 
and if just, will be made satisfactory. I send out 
only good stock in good condition, carefully packed 
in all cases, but success or failure depends in so large 
a dezree upon the care and management after re- 
ceived that I do not, because I cannot, undertake to 
guarantee stock to live. 


SUBSTITUTION. Late in the season we usually 
run short of some varieties listed herein; therefore, 
when you order late, please state on order sheet if 
you do not want me to substitute should I be sold out 
of the variety you order. If we substitute will give 
you a variety as near like the variety you ordered 
as possible.

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. 


LEAMON G. TINGLE, PITTSVILLE. MARYLAND.

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 
popular all through the South. 
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. 


is proving very 
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.

. UMMM) 


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. 


STEVENS’ LATE CHAMPION. This valuable 
variety makes strong, vigorous plants which yieid 
beavy crops ot fruit. The fruit is large, long, 4 


little flattened, and sometimes slightly creased, but 
generally smooth. 
flesh is also red, but lighter. 
protected by prominent seeds.

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. 


SUCCESS. 
the home garden. 
bright searlet or flame color, 
uniform in size, color. and shape. Plants are vigor- 
ous, healthy and most prolific. Though the berries 
are not firm enough to endure long shipment, it is 
ome of the most profitable strawberries for local mar- 
ket and very desirable for the home garden. 


One of the finest early varieties for 
Berries round or slightly elongated, 
quite large and very 


TWILLEY. Large in size, well colored and ex- 
ceedingly firm. The eating quality is excellent. 
Makes a large, vigorous foliage of healthy, rich, 
lig at green foliage. One grower says he clears more 
money per acre from Twilley than from any other 


variety he grows. 


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 
healthy and a strong grower; the berry is medium berries, but the berries are of large size and very 
to large in size, firm, uniform shape, bright red handsome. It resembles the Chesapeake so much that 


through and through. The plant when loaded with some persons have mistaken it for the Chesapeake. 
berries is a beauty. The berries have the wild straw- The Superb is not only a good fall-bearing sort, but 
berry flavor, and I consider it the best flavored of one of the most profitable varieties to plant for a 
all strawberries. I have the nicest lot of Americus regular season crop. : 


plants that I have ever grown. : 
TOP NOTCH. A wonderful ever-bearing variety. 


IDEAL. One of the newest of the ever-bearers and It is a strong, luxuriant grower, leaves are round, 
also considered ome of the best. The plant resembles dark green, very tough, and not affected by any 
both Progressive and Superb. The berry resembles leaf spot. One of the most productive of the ever- 
Progressive but larger. More productive than Superb bearers. Its fruit being fully as large as that of the 
but not as productive as Progressive. Makes runners Superb and much more productive with me. If you 


freely. Worth a trial. want something extra cood try Top Notch. I only 
i é f have a few hundred plants for sale this season and 
PEERLESS. A _ new ever-bearing variety intro- not more than 25 to any one person. Price, 10 


duced by Samuel Cooper, of New York. Mr Cooper plants $1.25, 25 plants $2.50. 
also introduced Superb, and in comparison he says: 
‘Peerless is better than Superb, being a more vigor- 
ous grower, more productive of somewhat larger fruit 
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.

grown. Fruit-growers are realizing this 


more and more, and enormous profits are being realized from young orchards.

Splendid for home garden or market. 


The plants are very easy to grow, and a bed

As a field crop, asparagus is very profitable, and there is seldom an over-supply in the 
city markets, the prices remaining high throughout the season. 

Any good garden soil will give excellent crops, but it should be manured freely.

ST. REGIS. Red. This promises to be the most 
valuable addition to the list of Red Raspberries. It 
succeeds upon all soils, whether light and sandy or 
heavy clay, and the canes are absolutely hardy always 
and everywhere. The canes are of a stalky, strong 
growth with a great abundance of healthy, dark green 
foliage. The only variety known that gives a crop 
of fruit the same year planted, and two crops a year 
thereafter. Plants set in early spring will give a 
small crop of fruit the fall following, and the next 
spring a big crop equaling that of any red Raspberry 
known. The berries are large, beautiful and attract- 
ive. If you have failed with every other variety of 
Raspberry, either North or South, plant St. Regis 
and succeed.

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

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.
