The BEST MIDSEASON BERRY BIG BERRIES BIG YIELDS BIG PROFITS These have made Catskill the BIG BOSS of all midseason varieties. For years we have sold at least three times as many Catskill plants as all other midseason varieties Catskill is a native of New York. It is adapted to all Northern, Central and Middle States. It does well as far south as Virginia, Tennessee and Missouri and in higher altitudes even farther south. Catskill is the perfect running mate for Premier, coming in with a flood of big luscious berries as Premier begins to taper off both in size and yield. Catskill normally carries on for a long season and if moisture conditions are favorable will continue bearing until most good late berries, except Redstar, are about through. Here's why Catskill stays in the lead— Berries are large. Catskill will produce more big berries than any variety we have ever grown. This is in addition to the many medium sized berries with which Catskill finishes up its long bearing season. Berries are firm. They are firm enough for local and nearby markets. As firm as Dorsett but net as firm as Blakemore for shipping. As grown in the north they are firm enough to stand any shipment strawberries are normally given. Berries are good. Dorsett and Starbright. As good as Premier in quality but not as good as Fairfax, Berries are attractive. First berries are sometimes ridged but later ones are fairly smcoth. 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 affect the yield. Plants are productive. The heaviest crops of any variety that we have' ever known
