NEW STRAWBERRY—HERITAGE St. LiOniS. Early, Perfect. An exceptionally strong growing extra earl)' variety, claimed to be the largest extra early yet produced, it having been grown so that twelve selected berries filled a quart basket. The fruit is of a bright flame color, firm and of high quality, and borne on long, stout stems. 75 cents per dozen ; per 100. The Cardinal. Late, Pistillate. No strawberry ever sent out seems to have received the endorsement of the leading experts so fully as The Cardinal. They agree that it is as nearly faultlessas a strawberry is ever likely to be. The plants are strong, healthy and free growers, the fruit stalks tall and stout, making the picking an easy matter, berries of large size, perfect in shape and coloring and of delicious flavor and aroma ; it has been tried over a wide area and seems to do well everywhere ; it was illustrated in colors in the Year Book of the Agricultural Department, and a photo reproduction shown in the Experiment Station Bulletin of its native State— Ohio—unusual honors, which it seems to deserve. We have no hesitation in recommending it for extensive planting. 75 cents perdoz.; ^ per 100. The Fendall. Mid-season to Late, Pistillate. One of the largest if not the very largest berry yet introduced, and unlike most very large fruiting varieties it has a delicious flavor not usually found in big berries. It begins to ripen early in the season and continues to bear a succession of delicious, beautiful, high colored berries until late in the season, yielding almost double the quantity of fruits produced by other standard varieties. A most promising variety which we recommend for extensive trial. ;^ per dozen ; ; per 100. Collections of 'Ne^xr Straivberries. The testing of new strawberries is always in
