Good Yielder Promising Replacement For Blakemore Dixieland is making a steady climb to stardom since its in- troduction just a few years ago. Originally thought to be best adapted to southern areas, it is doing quite well in many northern producing sections. Dixieland ripens with Blake- more, is slightly firmer than Blakemore and has larger ber- ries. The berries are a bright glossy red only slightly darker than Blakemore and uniform in shape. Flavor is tart and good. Yields in test plots have run over 9000 quarts per acre of good, large, firm berries. Since Blakemore is fading in many producing areas, we suggest Dixieland as an early, high quality replacement. Its large yields, good color, firmness, and high quality are sure to make a hit. Plant Virus Free Dixieland from Bountiful Ridge this year. SURECROP MULTIPLE RESISTANCE TO RED STELE — FINE FLAVOR VERY HEAVY PLANT PRODUCER SURECROP seems to be a really fine new strawberry variety. It was tested as U. S. No. 2233 for more than five years and was extremely promising wherever grown from Pennsylvania and New York to southern Virginia and westward to Ohio. SURECROP is a midseason berry ripening about with Fairland and Temple. The berries are a light, bright red which turns to a deep rich color. The seeds are a nice bright yellow set even with the surface. SURECROP berries are firm with a tough glossy skin which makes them ideal for distant markets. They have also been recom- mended for freezing. Size holds well throughout the season with the average being larg- er than Stelemaster. SURECROP are very vigorous plant makers and producers, rivalling such varieties as Pocahontas and Robinson as the best bed makers of all strawberry varieties. Coupled with STELEMASTER as a fine ear
