ANNOUNCEMENT 
 
 OK more than fifteen years we have made the ^frowing of 
 hiph grade nursery stock a specialty. 'We aim to keep in 
 stock eveiything for the planter, all graded to the best 
 standard, which is now well known to the trade. Through 
 our immense business and wide acquaintance we have es- 
 tablished a reputation for accuracy in varieties, grading to 
 the highest standard, and promptness in filling orders of 
 which we are proud, and which it will always be our aim 
 to deserve, r<*alizing that a satisfied customer is our best 
 advertiser. We have a large home trade here, as well as 
 shipping trade, selling thousands of dollars worth of nurs- 
 ery stock to farmers in this vicinity, who drive into our 
 grounds and take the stock with them, often in large loads. 
 For the benefit of our customers living at, or in the vicin- 
 ity of Baroda, we have established a branch nursery on 
 our farm one mile east of that town, known as the Baroda 
 Nursery. My son, Jesse J. Dunham, is manager there. He thor- 
 oughly understands the business, and any one wishing to buy 
 from there will get as prompt attention and stock as good as can 
 
 be furnished. 
 
 We make a specialty of grape vines and have grown the largest this season we have 
 ever grown heretofore, especially in Concords one and two years old. They have made a 
 large growth and are strong, thrifty vines, and will give satisfaction to the planter. Our 
 prices will be found as reasonable as good stock can be sold. We cannot extend credit 
 at these prices. We guarantee our stock to be graded to the standard, and should anything 
 be received not well graded we will be willing to make it good as far as we can. 
 
 Ordering. — In ordering give specific directions as to whether the stock is to be shipped 
 by freight or express, giving route. Where there are no directions given, we ship to the

 tion or express office our responsibility ceases. 
 
 Orders. — ^Write your order on sheet separate from letter, please. It Is much handier 
 for us. Order while our list of varieties is complete. In case we are out of a variety we 
 w'ill substitute another of equal merit, unless you say not to, always taking care to 
 please you and labeling true to name. 
 
 Por the protection of our customers, the nurseries have been inspected in accordance 
 with the state laws, and a certificate issued, showing that our stock and premises are en- 
 tirely free from obnoxious pests or diseases. 
 
 Fumigation. — Our stock will be fumigated with hydrocyanic acid gas, so there w’tll be 
 no danger of scale or insects.

 to reach customers in good condition, if sent by mail or expre.ss.

 DWARF 
 PEARS 
 
 We have the Dutch- 
 ess d’Andonleme and 
 Louise Bonne on the 
 dwarf stock, which 
 two varieties do the 
 best as dwarfs. Dwarf 
 pears are grown on 
 quince stock, and 
 come into bearing 
 sooner than the standards. 
 Strict attention to them, and 
 high cultivation will result 
 in a magnificent yield of 
 fruit. The size of the tree 
 makes them valuable on ac- 
 count of the ease of collect- 
 ing the fruit and spraying. 
 Price of Dwarfs are the 
 same as Keiffer and Garber.

PEACHES 
 
 HERRIEN OOTTNTY ELBERTAS. 
 
 The peach requires a well drained soil, a 
 warm sandy or gravelly loam Is well suited to 
 preserve a healthy growth, and should be ferti- 
 lized and kept In cultivation. Ashes, potash, 
 and bone are excellent fertilizers, though the 
 tree will respond excellently to any fair dress- 
 ing material. Each year's growth should bo 
 shortened after the wood Is ripe, to make the 
 tree stronger, better shape and more vigorous. 
 In trimming trees to plant use a sharp knife, 
 cut all bruised roots off, making a clean cut. 
 Trim side limbs off three Inches from tree; cot 
 tree off about three ft., from the bud or 
 ground according to the height you like.

 The Stearns Peach — This peach was originat- 
 ed in the heart of the great Fruit Belt of Mich- 
 igan by James N. Stearns, of South Haven. 
 Mich., and Introduced last season by the Central 
 Michigan Nursery. Mr. Stearns needs no Intro- 
 duction to the fruit growing public of Michi- 
 gan, for the long, faithful, and valuable ser- 
 vice he has rendered the Michigan Horticul- 
 ,tural Societies. The Farmer’s Institutes, his 
 origination of the Kalamazoo peach aira other 
 
 STEARNS. 
 
 noteworthy efforts, have made his nam^ famil- 
 iar, and his Judgment and ability recognized 
 throughout the borders of Michigan and other 
 states. The Stearns Peach, after having been 
 thoroughly tested. Is introduced with every as- 
 surance from the originator that it surpasses 
 any other variety yet given to the public. Pos- 
 sessing the size and firmness of the Elberta, 
 the quality and flavor of the Crawford, the 
 hardiness and prolificness of the Kalamazoo, to- 
 gether from the fact of its being perfectly free 
 from curl leaf, bespeaks an immense sale for 
 this new variety of trees. No one can sing too 
 loudly the praise of the Stearns Peach, for Us 
 remarkable qualities cannot fall to make It 
 herculean among the varieties of peach trees 
 now under cultivation. As a commercial sort, 
 its equal has yet to be introduced, and we 
 heartily recommend Its planting by all peach 
 growers who are Interested in the dissemination 
 of such varieties as will 
 bring them the greatest finan- 
 cial returns. Note the words 
 from the pen of the originator 
 who says: “The Stearns fruit 
 brought from 50 cents to $1.00 
 per bushel more than other 
 standard sorts,” and contrast- 
 ing it with the Elberta he 
 states over his own signature 
 that, “it is four times as har- 
 dy as that variety.” or in oth- 
 er words, he gets four crops 
 from the Steams where he gets 
 one from the Elberta. 
 
 What does this mean to the 
 peach growers of the United 
 States? It means this, that 
 where $1.00 is made fi*om a 
 standard variety like the Rl- 
 berta. The Stearns will make 
 at least $5.00. and this contrast 
 is made with a variety that 
 has been planted far and wide 
 throughout the United States 
 during the past few years.

 Plums need care and attention, but they will 
 pay for it all very liberally. The Japan plums 
 bear younger than the Kuropeans, and are very

CHERRIES 
 
 GOV. WOOD. 
 
 SWEET CHERRIES 
 
 Sweet cherries are of rapid growth, with 
 large glossy leaves, forming fine pyramid shap- 
 ed heads, and producing large crops of luscious 
 sweet fruit. Sour cherries generally produce 
 acid fruit, and do not attain so large a size. 
 They are well adapted for dwarfs or pyramids. 
 Are hardier and better adapted for shipping to 
 market, we know of nothing in the fruit line 
 that has been giving or promises to give in 
 the future larger returns than cherry orchards. 
 Few markets are ever over supplied.

CURRANTS 
 
 Hardy, easily cultivated, standing neglect 
 well, and liberally responding to cultiva 
 tion and generous treatment; Indispensable 
 for Jelllee, table use. etc. No garden Is 
 
 complete without them, and large quantities 
 ire required for market. Set four feet 
 
 ipart In rich ground, cultivate well, or 
 mulch heavily; prune out old wood so tha; 
 each remaining shoot will have room to 
 grow. If the current worm appears, dust 
 with helebore. 
 
 Cherry. — ^Berries sometimes one- 
 half Inch In diameter, bunches 
 short, vigorous and productive, 
 when grown on good soil and well 
 cultivated. 
 
 Fay’s Prolific. — The leading 
 market variety. Extra large stems 
 and berries. Uniform size, easily 
 picked, exceedingly productive; no 
 variety ever made as quick a 
 jump in popular favor, the de- 
 mand being. In most seasons. In 
 excess of the supply. 
 
 Victoria. — L a r g e , light red. 
 bunches extremely long. Berries 
 medium size of excellent quality 
 Ripens late. 
 
 Red Dutch. — An old well known 
 sort. Good quality, berry medi- 
 um, long bunch, very productive. 
 
 Whit© Grape. — ^Very large, yel- 
 lowish white; sweet, or very mild 
 acid. Excellent quality and val- 
 uable for table. Very productive. 
 
 Dee’s Prolific. — T his Is a 
 black currant: extra quality, 
 
 strong grower. Productive. 
 
 Wilder. — One of the strongest 
 growers, and most productive. 
 Bunch and berries very large; 
 bright, attractive red color, even 
 when dead ripe. Hangs on the 
 bushes in fine condition for han- 
 dling, as late as any known va- 
 riety. Compared with the cele- 
 brated Fay’s. It Is equal in size, 
 with longer bunches; better in 
 
 WILDER. 
 
 quality, with much less acidity. 
 Ripens at same time, continues on 
 bush much longer, fully as pro- 
 lific, in some trials, largely out- 
 yielding It. 
 
 London Market. — For many 
 years this variety has been fruit- 
 ing in Michigan where It is now 
 planted extensively and regarded 
 as the best market variety of 
 ihat great fruit state. Plant is 
 extremely vigorous, with perfect 
 foliage which it retains through 
 the season, an enormous cropper. 
 Ripens with Victoria, is larger In 
 both bunch and berry, a better 
 bearer. For any use — home gar- 
 den or market— one of the best. 
 
 North Star. — The strongest 
 grower among the red varieties; 
 should be given plenty of room 
 and ground kept well enriched; 
 bunches average 4 Inches in length 
 and are freely produced. Com- 
 bines extreme hardiness, vigorous 
 growth, extra quality and great 
 productiveness.

 Dear Sir: — Please send me your 
 fall catalogue of 1908 and spring 
 1909 now. or as soon as it Is 
 ready. In am Intending to buy 
 some strawberry plants to set out 
 next Spring, and I think I shall 
 send for them to you, as I have 
 had some good recommendations 
 of your plants and trees. 
 
 Tours truly,

 ASPARAGUS 
 
 No garden is too small to have a bed of this 
 earliest and finest of spring vegetables. Pre- 
 pare ground by trenching to depth of two feet, 
 mixing each layer of soil as turned over with 
 two or three inches of well rotted manure. This 
 is one of the most profitable crops to grow, 
 and one that Is easily handled. A field well 
 planted will last a lifetime. Plant rows from 
 three to four feet apart. 12 to 15 inches apart 
 In a row. Do not cut for use until the plants 
 have grown two seasona 
 
 Palmetto. — This is a new sort, which is be- 
 
 coming quite popular. It produces shoots of 
 the very largest size. It Is very early, w'hlch 
 makes It very valuable for market or home use. 
 
 Conover’s Colossal. — A standard variety of 
 large size, tender and of excellent quality. 
 
 2 years, 30 cents per 12; $1.00 per 100; $6.00 
 per 1000. 
 
 1 year. 25 cents per 12; 75 cents per 100; $5.00 
 per 1000. 
 
 Send for special prices in large lots of sev- 
 eral thousand. 
 
 RHUBARB 
 
 A deep, rich soil is indlspensible to secure 
 large, heavy stalks. Plant In rows four feet 
 apart, with the plant three feet distant. Set 
 so that the crowns are an inch below the sur- 
 face. Top-dress annually in the fall with sta- 
 ble manure and fork under In the spring. 
 
 Queen. — Strong, vigorous grower, producing 
 extra large stalks of finest quality, of a de- 
 
 cided pink color. For canning or cooking In 
 any way, its quality is unsurpassed. 
 
 .Myatt’s Linnaeus. — Popular, and the best for 
 general use. Early, very large, productive, ten- 
 der, and delicately flavored. Requires less su- 
 gar than other sorts. 
 
 Price, each, 10 cents; dozen. 75 cents; one 
 hundred, $4.00. 
 
STRAWBERRIES 
 
 Strawberries will succeed in any soil that 
 is adapted to ordinary farm garden crops; 
 soil should be thoroughly prepared to a good 
 depth, well drained and enriched. In field cul- 
 ture set the rows from three to three and a half 
 feet apart, 15 to 18 inches in rows; for garden 
 15 inches apart each way, leaving pathway 
 ev&ry third row. To produce fine large fruit, 
 heap in hills, pinching runners off as soon as 
 they appear. Ground should always be kept 
 clean and well cultivated. In winter, a cover- 
 ing of leaves, straw, or some kind of litter, 
 will protect the plants. Do not cover them 
 until ground is frozen, or so deep as to smother 
 the plants, and remove covering before growth 
 starts in spring. Mulching will keep the fruit 
 
 clean and the soil In good condition through 
 the fruiting season. The blossoms of those 
 marked with a (p) are destitute of stamens, 
 and are termed pistillate, and unless a row 
 of perfect flowering variety is planted at in- 
 tervals not exceeding a rod, they will produce 
 Imperfect fruit, and but little of it, but when 
 properly fertilized, as a rule, they are more 
 prolific than those with perfect flowers. Our 
 stock is pure, each kind kept by Itself, culti- 
 vated entirely for the production of plants: 
 they are carefully graded, handled and packed, 
 and certainly give the best of sati.sfaction. 
 
 Aroma. — This is our best and most profitable 
 late strawberry. It cannot be beaten for quan- 
 tity of fruit produced, or in quality of fruit. 
 Plants .show no weakness of any kind. Fruit 
 very large, roundish conical rarely mishapen, 
 glossy red, of excellent quality, and produced 
 in abundance. Same .season as Gandy. 
 
 Beder Wood. — This variety was originated 
 by Beder Wood of Illinois. We have fruited 
 it for many years, and found it to be a very 
 heavy bearer, of good size, roundish fruit. 
 Does well on nearly all soils. Season early, a 
 good stamina to fertilize early varieties like 
 Crescent, Warfield, etc. The plant is a good 
 healthy grower, and sends out a number of 
 large runners. Beder Wood Is very deep root- 
 ed and will stand .drouth beKer than most va- 
 rieties. 
 
 Biibuch <P). — By far more plants of this va- 
 riety are used than any other sort. Its large 
 
 and uniform size, fine form and color, unsur- 
 passed productiveness, and great vigor, com- 
 bine to make it the leading market sort. The 
 plant Is very large and fine looking, but a slow 
 plant maker. 
 
 Burton’s Kolipse (P). — A good standard sort, 
 but has been overlooked by some; one of the 
 best for field crops, a splendid grower and a 
 heavy ylelder, of large size, good color, and 
 highly flavored. Early to mid-season. 
 
 Baldwin’s Pride of Michigan. — We have not 
 as yet fruited this variety. We bought our 
 stock of plants last spring of the Introducer. 
 Below is his description: 
 
 We call this variety Baldwin’s Pride of Mich- 
 igan as there was a Pride of Michigan intro- 
 duced by the Kellogg Company about the same 
 time, that we knew nothing about when we 
 named our berry. 
 
 We place this variety first on our list be- 
 cause this is where it should be. It’s the best 
 thing we have. Baldwin’s IVide of 31ichigan Is, 
 without doubt, the best and most profitable 
 variety of strawberry ever introduced in the 
 Pnite<l States. 
 
 This grand variety was introduced by us two 
 years ago. This summer we again found our 
 Pride of Michigan to be our most profitable 
 strawberry. It cannot be beaten, at least, is 
 not beaten by any variety that we have seen, 
 and we have fruited over one hundred kinds. 
 
 Wo firmly believe that when fruit growers 
 throughout the country try this berry they will 
 want a quantity of them. It is certainly a 
 beauty from every standpoint. 
 
 Plant is perfect and berry is perfect. Here 
 arc the qualities that make it a most valuable 
 variety. 
 
 Productiveness — Will outyield any other 
 
 strawberry. 
 
 Color— Dark glossy red (all through). 
 
 Season of Ripening — Second early (ripens with 
 .Senator Dunlap.) 
 
 — .\bout like llaverland and Glen Mary. 
 
 Shipping (hiiility — 'Hie best. Very tough 
 
 skin, and a firm berr>’. 
 
 Shape — Rjitlier oblong. Resembles, Haver- 
 huid, never misshapen. (See picture.) 
 
 Blossom — Perfect. (A strong fertilizer.) 
 
 Plant — ^\’ery vigorous and healthy. (A good 
 plant maker.) 
 
 Fruit Stems — .Vre strong, stand up well and 
 there are plenty of them. 
 
 What more could <»ne ask for in the way of 
 qualifications of a perfe<’t strawberry? 
 
 Last year many of you were disappointed 
 in not being able to get our Pride of Michigan. 
 We were .sold out early and could have .sold 
 nearly two hundred thousand more If we had 
 had the plants. 
 
 Clyde. — A strong growing, perfect blooming, 
 healthy plant, with light green foliage. Ev- 
 erywhere tested, it proved to be exceedingly 
 productive, of large, globular, perfectly form- 
 ed, always inclined to overhear. Some plants 
 have more fruit stalks than leave stalks. A 
 light application of nitrate of soda. In early 
 spring before fruiting will stimulate greater 
 foliage growth, and so help the fruiting of this 
 remarkable variety. 
 
 Crescent (P).— A standard of productiveness 
 all over the country: succeeds every w'here. 
 Stands neglect best of any; plant small, berries 
 fair size, bright and attractive. Not very 
 firm. Many growers consider this the most 
 profitable berr>' for market. 
 
 Glen Mary. — Berries large to very large, often 
 flattened, bright deep red on surface; light red 
 to center. Sweet, rich, good flavor. Season, 
 medium to late. One of the most productive 
 and holds its size w’oll to the end of the sea- 
 son. Plants very vigorous, and one of the best 
 for home use and nearby market. 
 
 10 
 
ilaverland (P). — A fine grower, very produc- 
 tive; one of the best of the leading early mar- 
 ket sorts. Berries uniform, long, medium size, 
 and good quality. 
 
 Michel’s Karly. — Plant a strong grower. Ber- 
 rie.s medium size, roundish, bright crimson, fair 
 quality. One of the first berries to ripen. Is 
 a strong plant maker and does well on light 
 soil. 
 
 Fooonioke. — The berry is round, conical, and 
 resembles the old ‘Wilson, but is much larger, 
 and one of the best varieties in existence, not 
 only for Its enormous productiveness, but on 
 account of Its beauty. Adapted to all soll.-». 
 Its large, deep red color, firmness and high 
 flavor make It one of the most profitable ship- 
 pers. 
 
 Senator Dunlap. — A well tested, wonderfully 
 productive variety, one of the safe sorts to 
 plant everywhere and sure to take a high place 
 among the prominent standard sorts, plant re- 
 sembles Warfield, rampant runner, should be 
 restricted in its production of plants; fully 
 equal to Crescent and Warfield in its ability to 
 succeed under all circumstances. P''ruit good 
 size, regular form, beautiful bright red, glossy, 
 firm, splendid keeper and shipper, excellent 
 quality, one of the best for canning. Ripens 
 early, and continues a long time. It promises 
 to stand at the head In its wonderful ability 
 to ripen a good crop under almost any con- 
 dition of drouth or neglect. 
 
 Sample (I*). — One of the very best berries, 
 and It seems to succeed nearly everywhere. 
 Plants strong, large and healthy, producing in 
 profusion large, dark colored berries, of uni- 
 form size and color. Firm enough to ship well, 
 one of the best standard sorts for home use 
 and market. Season, late. 
 
 Tennessee l*roli!lc. — One of the good medium 
 early varieties. Barge size and productive. It 
 Is a very vigorous healthy plant, with never 
 a spot of rust. It has a strong staminate 
 blossom, and is especially valuable as a pol- 
 lenizer. 
 
 I’nole Jim. — Plants are large and free from 
 rust, berry is large, regular form, and season 
 is very late. 
 
 Warfield (I*). — Its greaty beauty, firmness 
 and earliness, good flavor, productiveness, and 
 vigor, makes it especially popular. Ripens 
 with Senator Dunlap, which makes a good fer- 
 tilizer to plant with It, as the shape and color 
 of the berries are the same, and look a great 
 deal alike when picked together. 
 
 Win. Belt. — A large, handsome, productive 
 berry for market or home use. 'Vigorous, thrif- 
 ty, heavy plants, producing large crops under 
 good common matted row culture. Berries ex- 
 tra large, conical, quite uniform in shape, bright 
 crimson red, ripens all over without green tips, 
 good quality, carries well to market, and brings 
 highest price. One of the best late varieties. 
 Making it on© of the best perfect flowering va- 
 rieties to fertilize late pistillate varieties, such 
 as Sample and Bubach. 
 
 Myer's Seedling. — Originated on B. I. Myer’s 
 farm, on the banks of Lake Michigan, about 
 four miles north of Stevensvllle. I bought my 
 stock from the originator last spring. The 
 plant Is a splendid grower. I have not fruit- 
 ed it on my farm but have seen it In fruit on 
 Myer’s farm. He has grown It for several 
 seasons, shipping the berries to the Chicago 
 market, W'here they sold In advance prices 
 over all other varieties. It is a large size, 
 firm, bright red and very productive. It is a 
 good shipper and medium early. The plants 
 have made as strong a growth on my farm this 
 
 season as any variety 
 
 I 
 
 have. 
 
 If It 
 
 continues 
 
 to do as well as it has 
 
 it w 
 
 ill 
 
 be 
 
 a leading 
 
 market variety.

GRAPES 
 
 T 
 
 HERE is scarcely a yard so small in the country or city that room for C^om one to a dozen grape vines can- 
 not be found. They do admirably, trained up the side of any building, or along the fences, occupy- 
 
 ing but little room, and furnishing an abundance of the healthiest of fruit. Make the soil mellow, and plant 
 the vines somewhat deeper than they stood in the nursery. Plant about eight feet ’apart by the fence or 
 building. 
 
 As a commercial crop there is nothing more satisfactory. They are as reliable .as a corn crop, and as 
 staple on the market as wheat. When a vineyard is once established it will be productive for a lifetime 
 with ordinary care, and the Income therefrom can be counted on almost as certainly as the changing of the season. 
 
 Grapes do well on either gravelly, sandy or clayey soils, or on a combination of these. If planted on clay soil, it 
 must be thoroughly underdrained to secure good results. Any good, dry soil of suiRcient fertility to produce good 
 farm crops is suitable for vineyard planting, if climate and exposure are favorable. 
 
 The only necessary preparation of the soil is to thoroug.uy plow ami pulverize it to a depth of 12 to 18 inches. If 
 
 CONCORD. 
 
 in sod it should be summer-fallowed in August or September preceding plant- 
 ing, and again plowed at the time of planting. At this last plowing many 
 of our best vineyardists plow the ground into lands equal In width to the 
 distance apart the rows are to be planted, and plant the vines in the 
 dead -furrows. This saves a large amount of labor in digging the 
 holes. 
 
 If the soil is naturally poor it should be given a lib- 
 eral application of thoroughly rotted stable manure, 
 which should be plowed in at the last plowing. If this 
 cannot be had, use raw bone meal, about 600 
 pounds per acre, with about 300 pounds muriate 
 of potash, or two tons of good, unleached hard 
 wood ashes. It is not desirable to put manure or 
 fertilizers of any kind in the hole when plant- 
 ing. The roots will quickly find their necessary 
 food if it is in the soil. 
 
 Concord. — The well known standard variety. 
 Succeeds wherever grapes will grow. Most pop- 
 ular variety ever grown. 
 
 Campbell’s Early. — Medium grower. Large 
 healthy foliage. Productive. Its keeping and 
 shipping qualities are equalled by no other early 
 grape. Ripens with Moores Early. Bunch and 
 horry large, glossy, black with blue bloom; sweet 
 and juicy. Seeds few and small. Part readily 
 from the pulp. Stands at the head of early 
 grapes. 
 
 Champion. — (Talmanu) Very early. Bunch and 
 berry good size, thick skin, productive. Poor 
 quality. Profitable owing to their earllness. 
 Delaware. — Bunches small, compact, shouldered. Berries 
 rather small, round, skin thin, light red. Sweet, spicy and 
 delicious. Vine moderately vigorous, hardy and productive. 
 
 Diamond. — The leading early white grape, ripening before 
 Moore’s Early, white with rich yellow tinge, juicy, few seeds. 
 Almost free from pulp, excellent quality, above medium size, 
 adheres firmly to stem. Vine like Co.Ksord in growth, hard- 
 iness and foliage. Fine variety for both market and home 
 garden. 
 
 Moore’s Early. — A black grape, with a heavy blue bloom, 
 bunch large, berry round. Quality better than the Concord, vine 
 exceedingly hardy, and has been expos ed to temperature of 
 twenty degrees below zero without injury. It has been en- 
 tirely exempt from mildew or disease. Its earliness, good 
 quality, and fine appearance make it a profitable market va-

 old wood, to give more vigor to the young 
 cane.s. Plant In rows 6 to 8 feet apart, and 
 3*^ to 4 feet in rows for field culture.

BLACKBERRIES 
 
 WILSON. 
 
 Karly Harvest. — One of the most valuable 
 whore it succeeds. Is not entirely hardy in 
 the north, and needs winter protection. Its 
 earliness, bein^ one of the first to ripen, com- 
 bined with grood shipping qualities, makes it 
 very profitable. Compact, dwarf grower, enor- 
 mous bearer, fruit medium size, black of ex- 
 cellent quality. 
 
 Each. 10 cents; 50 cents per 12; $1.00 per 100; 
 $6.00 per 1000. 
 
 Early King. — An extra early blackberry, ex- 
 ceedingly hardy variety of great merit, al- 
 ways producing large crop.««. Canes of strong 
 growth, as hardy as Snyder and very prolific. 
 It is much larger than Early Harvest, and in 
 delicious sweetness renders It of special value 
 for home use or market. It is also free of 
 double bloom and other disease. We have had 
 it go through hard spring frosts in blooming 
 time without injury, when Lawton and Wilson 
 near by wore nearly all killed. 
 
 Each. 1ft cents; 50 cents per 12; $1.25 per 
 100: $10.00 per 1000. 
 
 Eldorado. — The vines are very vigorous and 
 
 hardy, enduring the winters of the far north- 
 w’e.st without injury, and their yield is enor- 
 mous. Berries large, Jet black, borne in large 
 clusters, and ripen well together. They are 
 very sweet, melting and pleasing to the taste, 
 have no hard core, and a good keeper after 
 picking, with quality unimpaired. 
 
 Each. 10 cents; 50 cents per 12; $2.00 per 
 100 . 
 
 Wilson. — A magnificent, large, very early, 
 beautiful berry of sweet excellent flavor. Rip- 
 ens evenly, holds its color well, and brings 
 highest market price. Strong grower, exceed- 
 ingly productive. 
 
 Each, 10 cents; 50 cents per 12; $1.00 per 100; 
 $7.00 per 1000. 
 
 Each and dozen by mail postpaid. Hun- 
 dred and thousand by freight or express not 
 prepaid. 
 
 Should be planted In rows six to seven feet 
 apart, three to five feet In the rowa Keep 
 the ground light and rich. Pinch the canes 
 back when they have reached the height of 
 from two to three feet. 
 
 DEWBERRIES 
 
 Lucretia. — One of the low growing trailing 
 blackberries. In size and quality it equals any 
 of the tall growing sorts. Perfectly hardy, 
 healthy and remarkably productive. The fruit 
 which ripens early, is often one and one-half 
 inches long, by one inch in diameter. Soft, 
 
 sweet, and luscious throughout, with no hard 
 core. Ripens before late raspberries are gone. 
 Should be mulched to keep berries from 
 ground. We can highly recommend this var- 
 iety. Plants are grown from tips the same as 
 black raspberries, plants set In rows 6 feet 
 apart. 3 to 4 feet in row. In spring, cut back 
 wood from 12 to 16 inches. 
 
 Austin’s Improved (Mayes). — An early dew- 
 berry of excellent quality and large yield. Ber- 
 ries large, short and thick; canes virgorous, 
 hardy, and productive. Ripens fully .a week 
 earlier than I.ueretia. and for this reason Is 
 
 valuable to grow in connection with that vari- 
 ety. 
 
 Preiiio. — This remarkable new dewberry is a 
 sport from the grand old Lucretia. The great 
 profitableness of the Lucretia with many grow- 
 ers has been because it was the earliest of the 
 blackberry family to ripen. Now we have 
 Premo, still earlier and larger; that means 
 extra money in the market and an earlier taste 
 of the delicious dewberries for the family. Pre- 
 mo has imperfect flowers, and so In planting, 
 every third or fourth row should be of Luore- 
 tia: or better yet, where one is equally fond 
 of both varieties, they can be planted in alter- 
 nate rows. Remember that Premo is a deli- 
 cious. great blackberry that begins to ripen 
 when the raspberry season is half over. 
 
 Each. 10 cents: 50 cents' per 12; $1.25 per 
 100; $10.00 per 1000.
