BRUNETTE (Per.) The Brunette is a delightful berry. In color it is a deep rich red like port wine, not only all over the surface, but all the way through, and when you break one in two the fragments of the torn tissues sparkle in the sunlight like splinters of ruby crystals. It is a shapely berry, too, of uniform dome-like outline. If a few Brunette berries were mingled promiscuously with a large number made up of various other kinds, the Brunette could readily be picked out, their beautiful dark red color and symmetrical outline distin- guishing them from the rest.

If you are after an extra fine berry for j'our own family or select customers, where quality ranks first, then by all means plant Brunette. Price, 25c. per dozen; Toe. per lUO; $ per 1,000.

The plant, with its habits of growth and productiveness, is faultless. Fruit large, rich, uni- form size, and handsomest berries we ever saw of the strawberry. Price, 30c. per doz.; 75c. per 100; $ per 1,000 niCHIGAN. The originator claims that "it is the latest berry grown an
