We recognized this fact several years a^o and we said so in our catalog. It is now admitted by all growers of any stand- ing who have tried them both out, although many held for a long time that there were some differences. We believe Howard 17 to be the best berry m the world, without any doubt. We sell many plants under the name Howard 17 and many under the name of Premier. The variety has received more advertising under the name of Premier, but there seems to be little doubt that Howard 17 is the original name, and many growers, especially in New England, prefer to use the name How- ard 17 partly because they seem to feel that Mr. Howard has not received all the credit due him for originating this wonderful variety.
