GANDY'S PRIZE—The best late strawberry yet introduced and the leading late variety with fruit growers all over the country In size and firmness it is all that can be desired, and in vigor of plant and growth it is eminently satisfactory.

Sanborn & Co. Berlin, July 4, 1895.—I was in Philadelphia in June and purchased some Gandy strawberries; they were the finest I ever saw, some as large as guinea eggs, and selling readily at three times the price of Sharpless; they were solid, good color, good flavor and extra good shipper. H. F. Harmonson, Proprietor of Atlantic Hotel, Berlin, Md. MARSHALL—Perfect bloomer. The plant is large and strong with an abundance of healthy foliage and very prolific. The originator said he had counted 110 berries on a'sin- gle plant in a matted bed, and by actual and careful management it had produced 3000 quarts on one third of an acre.
