ABSOLUTELY PURE PLANTS
OF THE
Famous Hoffman VARIETY.

On the great berry markets of the
country Hoffman has for wears been a
synonym for the highest excellence in the
Strawberry Owing to it's earliness it is
always the first to reach the market Its
unrivalled frmness enables it to reach
even the most distant market in all the
glory of its splendid color Not only is
the berry then red as a ruby, and nearly
as firm, but even the cap retains it's clear
vived green color, adding much to the
attractiveness Of the berry. Hoffman. in
size ranks with the very largest, and on
good soil remains large to the very last.
The qualities render it par excellence the
great fancy shipping berry. For years
it has commanded top market prices. It's
plant growth is equal to its fruit. No
variety surpassos, if indeed any equals, it
in healthliness and freedom from rust and
disease. 1t is, of all varieties, most nearly
drought proof, dry weather at fruting
time rarely lessons the yield Of berries to
any great extent or reduces it's large size
or lessons It's SNOWY attractive appear
