Very regular and uniform in size, making a superb show in the basket or on the table; of fair flavor and valuable for market" in many sections. Needs to be grown with a perfect kind; ripens early. Brandywine (Perfect Flowers)—The fruit is of large size and fine quality, firm and shapely for so large a berry, foliage of the largest and thriftiest. The shape is uniformly good. In general it is heart shape. Flesh red, firm and solid for so large a berry, none more so. Vines ex- ceedingly prolific. Brandywine continues a long time in fruit, a very profitable variety and one that is being planted largely. Desirable for the home garden and for market; a late variety. Cumberland Triumph (Perfect Flowers).—An old reliable early berry of fine flavor, desirable for home use. Plants good growers and produc- tive of uniform large fruit that holds its size to the end of the season; fruit light crimson in color and one of our best canning berries. Gandy (Perfect Flowers).—This superb late variety is second to none as a fine, handsome, beautiful, firm, fine flavored, late berry. The fruit always brings the highest market price. This is one of the most profit- able berries to grow for a fancy mar- ket or for home use, where quality is the first consideration. The plant is a strong, compact grower; productive of large size, handsome, regular ber- ries, which hold out large to the last picking. The fruit is bright, beauti- ful, one of the best, if not the best, for market we have. But its superior flavor is what commends it to all in search of a good late berry in every respect.
