WILLIAM BELT (per.; This va- riety is a very vigorous grower and the berries much resemble Bubach Xo. 5. It is considered, by those who know it well, superior to that variety in vigor. souri and, as its name implies, is the earliest berry in cultivation. A seed- ling of Michel's Early, it resembles the parent in plant and fruit, but is a little larger and fully twice as productive, so say the introducers. Price per dozen, $2 ; 100, S10.
