. Dreer's midsummer list 1927 . The Berries You Grow in Your Own Garden are Always Better than Any You Can Buy. Big Joe (Mid-season). This variety is highly recommended by reliable growers, and our own experience with it justifies us in endorsing all that has been said in its favor. The plant is unusually vigorous, with a mass of large, healthy foliage; the fruit is large, of great substance, exquisite flavor and produced freely on strong stems held well above the ground. We do not know any variety that promises to give more general satisfaction. $ per doz.; $ per 100; $ per 1000.

All growers are unanimous in their praise of this magnificent berry, and it is considered one of the finest mid-season to late-fruiting sorts. We do not know that is has a single defect, plants of extra strong constitution and growth doing well everywhere. The fruit is extra large, heart-shaped, color bright, rich red, and the flavor leaves nothing to be desired. A grand variety for preserving, retaining its flavor in a wonderful degree when canned. It always pro- duces satisfactory crops, and will always be found in the front rank of high-grade berries. $ per doz.; $ per 100; $ per 1000. Chesapeake (Late). A most reliable berry, which is giving perfect satisfaction in all parts of the country. It is not a variety that sets an immense quantity of fruit, but every blossom makes a berry, every berry being well developed and strictly fancy, of good color without any green tips and of the highest quality. A berry that we can recommend for all soils and conditions. $ per doz.; $ per 100; $ per 1000. Early Jersey Giant. (Early). This has been well called "The early Strawberry without a fault," it is one of the late Dr. Van Fleet's hybrids, the result of crossing some of the finest European varieties with the best American sorts, resulting in a variety which ripens with the earliest. Berries very large, brilliant,
