His description is as follows : " It undoubtedly has blood of the Gandy in ft, but it is superior to that grand old variety in every way, the berries being larger, infinitely superior in quality, even more brilliant in color and more beautiful and produced in far greater numbers. The ber- ries are of immense size, heart shaped, with broad blunt apex and exceptionally uniform in shape and size. Surface smooth and glossy, bright flame color, meaty texture, with the flavor and aroma of the wild berry very pronounced. 60 cts. per doz.; $ per 100; $ per 1000. (Early, Perfect.) This is one of the finest berries grown. It is so well and favorably known that it is almost useless to describe it. The plant is large and stocky, a vigorous grower and a good bearer. It is the earliest of all the very large vari- eties, and it usually matures all its fruit. The berry is very large, of regular form, dark, glossy red, very beauti- ful, and of fine quality. There is no other variety in the market to compare with it in its season. It is the great berry in New England, and no grower can alTord to leave out the Marshall. 60 cts. per doz.; $ per 100; $ per 1000. NICK OHMER. (Mid-Season, Perfect.)
