Plant in rows four feet apart and set eighteen inches apart in the row. This spacing requires about 7300 plants to the acre. The plants are well-rooted layers from the open ground. from every section of the country shows its standing with berry growers. It is of uniform smoothness, and every specimen is perfect in shape, even when they begin to run small at the end of the season. The berries are large, long, conical, rather light color, but very at- tractive and good quality. Very productive under proper treatment. Plants of good size and will get plenty thick in the row. Lady Thompson—The plant is a vigorous, healthy grower, entirely free from rust, and has great drouth-resisting qualities. The fruit carries well to distant markets, and then shows up to better advantage than most other vari- eties, hence its great popularity in sections where it is necessary to ship to a distant market. I find the berry quite productive, of regular form and large size, though no/t the largest. McKinley—An excellent variety which has been thoroughly tested and is pronounced a very superior sort. The berries are large, bright crimson in color, flesh very firm and of most excellent quality; plant a heavy yielder, vigor- ous and healthy, ripening about midseason. No better variety could be selected for the family garden. Nick Ohmer—A new and very promising variety. Thoroughly tested by the leading strawberry growers, who are enthusiastic in its praise. The plant is a large, strong grower, sending out an abundance of runners, and probably not surpassed in health, vigor and productive- ness by any other variety. Fruit of large size, uniform, and of a rich, glossy crimson, firm and excellent in quality. Rough Rider—A new strawberry from New York. Seedling of Eureka. Fertilized
