. Allen's 1945 book of berries. Nurseries (Horticulture) Maryland Salisbury Catalogs; Nursery stock Maryland Salisbury Catalogs; Strawberries Maryland Salisbury Catalogs. C A T S K I L L Ihings have been said about C No variely ever more richly commanding place by its own superb its growers. For years we have sold at least Ihre all other midseason varieties combined. Catskill is a native ol New York. It is adapted BEST OF THE MIDSEASON BERRIES all Northern. Central and Middle WHY CATSKILL LEADS Catskill many medium sized berries Vith which Catskill Midland may match Catskill in ' The h C arby marke Berries are larg ever grown. This is in addi iinishes up its long bearing Berries are firm. They are iirm enough lor local as Dorselt but not as firm as Blakemore for shipping. As grown firm enough to stand ciny shipment strawberries are normally given. Berries are good. As good as Premier in quality but not as good as Fairiax, Dorsett and Slarbright. Berries are attractive. First berries are sometimes ridged but later ones are fairly smooth. An attractive light red color which darkens very slowly on holding makes Catskill look well and sell well. Plants are vigorous. They make a vigorous growth with plenty of strong plants for a good fruiting bed. A little leaf spot appears as grown in Maryland and farther South, but not enough to aflect the yield. Plants are productive. The heavies! crops ot any variety that we have ever known here have been Catskill. In New York and other northern states yields up to 15,000 quarts per acre have been reported several times. Plants are sure croppers. Catskill has been almost as hardy and as consistent a cropper as Premier for the last 12 straight years. Catskill is profitable. The safe and sure midseason-to-late berry for both Victory Gardens and commercial plantings. Price list, page 23. CATSKILL COMMENTS 2, 1944. The Catskill and Premier plants you shipped us turned a finer bed. They were loaded with line berries. Mr. Irvin I. Lowery 1
