THE PALMER VARIETIES Originated by Mr. E. F. Palmer of Vineland Station, Ontario, Canada Mr. Palmer is the director of the Government Experiment Station a fruit breeding establishment at Vineland Station, Ontario, Canada, About ten years ago he began to hybridize glads as a hobby. From the start he was very successful. Though now a comparatively young hybridizer his varieties have taken their place among the best. His Picardy, which is probably his most sensational variety, is fast becoming the most popular variety in existence. His first variety. Inspiration, was introduced nearly five years ago. Since then up to this year we have intro- duced sixteen other varieties most of which are making places for themselves among the world's leading glads. Previous to this year, Mr. Palmer being comparatively so young at the game, I have hesitated to make any state- ment about his varieties as strong as I believed they deserved but now 1 feel that the time has come when I can make a statement that cannot be challenged. We all know that not every variety put out by any hybridizer is going to prove a world beater. Occasionally a variety will get by that does not prove to be extra good, in spite of the fact that 1 think all hybridizers mean.
