ExcelsiorâThis variety has given first ripe berries the past season. It bears a great number of medium sized berries dark red and very tirm. Mr. J H Hale savs this is the berry for most mon- ey wherever an early berry is wanted. We think he is right if the grower cares e nough for his bed to keep d wn the excess of plants. In fact we don't believe this ber ry has just shown what it really can do under favorable conditions. No one can afford to leave this out of their straw- berry list. Price 15 cents per dozen, 30 cents per 100, $ per 1000. Excelsior is described in 1899 Bulletin of Michigan Ex- periment Station. It being along with Sample and Margaret, the only berries specially recommended as follows: Excelsior.âPerfect flower. The plants are very vigorous and healthy in growth and foliage. Berries large, long conical, or poirted round conical in form, and a bright scarlet color. The flesh is bright, juicy, of fair quality and firm. This variety was the first to ripen fruits and the plant3 were productive. The season was shortened by the dry weather and the last fruits were small. A very promising early berry. Sample (Imp) -Fruited for the first time last Spring this Derry gives great promise. Strong spotless foliage luxuriant growth Extra heavy setting of fruit, colors promptly and all over a fine red go 3d uniform size, but needs good land and heavy feed
