I have not fruited this but have a small stock of plants which I will offer at Doz. 30c; hundred $; thousand $ PARSON'S BEAUTY.—Discovered in Maryland ten years ago, it became very popular in its own neighborhood, and was introduced two years ago. We believe it has the characteristics of a popular market berry. The plant is very large—about the size of the Glen Mary,—makes plants freely; is free from desease of every kind; and is probably not excelled in pro- ductiveness by any other variety on the market. The fruit is very large and showy; bright red all over, with no white tips; resembling the old Wilson in color and firmness; often corrugated, put not otherwise misshapen; and quite tart. The season is medium. The introducer, in 1899, picked 8,000 quarts from an acre before prices got too low to justify shipping, and then left ful- ly 2,000 quarts on the plants. This variety will certainly be a money-maker unless the signs fail. Doz. 25c; hundred 60c; thousand $ MORGAN'S FAYORITE.— Fruit among the very largest and of excellent flavor and scarlet color. It would be too soft for long distance shipping but extra fine for nearb} markets, being one among the best garden collections for family use. The plant is perfect, being large and stalky and makes a medium amount of runners. Doz. 25c; hundred 50c; thousand$
