THESE DESCRIP-1 1 TIONS I Z Of Strawberries are E H from careful notes; 2 ta!<en in the field at r S fruiting- time, and it z ~ is believed are more S r accurate than any E : ever before pub- - = lished. = VARIETIES AND PRICES OF STRAWBERRIES. (Here are the Early Ones.) Dayton. A very vigorous plant, with broad, heavy, pale green foliage ; perfect flower ; very productive of very large, conical, pale scarlet ber- ries, with yellow seeds, white flesh, especially at the center; very sweet and mild, but not high flavored. One of the earliest to ripen. Not till the advent of this variety did we have any very pro- ductive, large sized, extra early, perfect-flower- ing variety. But we have it in the Dayton ! A grand market variety, and good enough for the choice family plot. Fine to pollenize Haverland, Bubach, Sunrise, and other early pistillate varie- ties. There is a superb picture of this in the Biggie berry book. Price, 25 cts. per doz., 75 cts. per 100, $3 per 1,000. Sunrise. A very vigorous growing plant of the Crescent type, although having broader, thicker leaves ; imperfect blossom ; wonderfully product- ive of medium-sized, obtuse conical berries ; dark glossy scarlet, with white flesh; moderately firm, subacid, of high flavor. Fully as productive as, and averaging one-third larger than, Crescent. Came to us without flourish of trumpets, but for three years now has proved itself a won- der of productive- ness. Anyone who was ever satisfied with Crescent would be more than happy Siiiiiimiiiiniiiimiiiiii: with a bed of Sunrise. You must get up early to beat it ! New varieties have always, when first'offered, been put at a high price ; our stock is very limited, but while it lasts we are going to book orders at a price that will pell us out long before the end of the season.
