SURECROP Ranks with Pocahontas as the most vigorous of all See color picture inside front cover Surecrop, a cross of Fairland x Md. U. S. 1972, was released by Md. in 1956. Surecrop (midseason) and Stelemaster (early) are the only varieties we have that are resistant to three strains of red stele. Both Surecrop and Stelemaster are good enough to be grown as fancy berries apart from their red stele resistance. On a trip through the northern states in Tune, 1958, we found Surecrop being tested in many state test plots, including Ohio, New York, Penn- sylvania and Massachusetts. In every case Sure- crop was among the leaders in size, beauty and productiveness. For that reason we feel that Sure- crop has a wide adaptability through the middle and northern states. In sections where red stele is either present or threatened every grower should try this variety. If red stele should strike, a grower can probably continue strawberry production with Surecrop with no let-up in yield, quality or profit. It is just good insurance to try it out. Our plants of Surecrop for two years have shown even greater vigor than Pocahontas. It is the most robust grower in our fields. We fruited two acres of Surecrop in 1958. Our experience here tallied with that elsewhere. The crop was heavy, the berries were large, bright and attrac- tive. They were firm enough to ship successfully and profitably. The flavor is somewhat tart and they have been rated as fairly good for freezing. A bright green cap adds to their beauty. (See color picture insert.) For better handling we hope to have your order for Surecrop early. However, the supply of this variety is adequate and you will get what you want, whether the order is received early or late in the shipping season.
