V Triomphe de Gand—Large, conical, often coxcombed ; polished, sweet and fine flavored. Does best on heavy soils. A popular foreign variety. Warfleld (No. 2) (P.)—A variety that is very li:fcely to supersede the Crescent, which it rivals in yield and excels in size, beauty and firmness. Quality pleasant, sub-acid, good. The plant is a vigorous grower with bright healthy foliage. One of the few new sorts that has sustained the claims made for it by Its introducers, and we can \ confidently recommend it as one of the most promising for a market berry. Early. Wilson's Albany—Large, conical, dark red, firm, hardy; prolific, rather acid. Suc- ceeds everywhere. ]V[ybBERRIES. Downing's Everbearing—Produced from seed of the Multicaulis.
