[S] —The plant is of large size, but makes only a moderate supply of runners. Foliage very dark colored ; leaver thick and leathery ; has the appearance of be- ing an iron-clad. Originated in New York; a seedling of Eureka, fertil- ized by Gandy; plant resembles Gandy some in leaf and stock. Said to be enormously productive of verv large berries. The very latest and firmest berry grown. We believe it to be worthy of a trial. Staples, [S]—This is a good pollenizer and a good one to go with Warfield. It is productive of good sized berries, dar*er than War fit Id. Plant vigorous and a sure cropper. Sharpless. [S]—We have calls for this old variety, which is the only reason we grow it. Senator Dunlap. [S]—We have over 100 varieties of strawberries growing on our grounds, but this one is the most rampant grower we have. It is simply wonderful in plant growth, and plants are of a fair size ; foli- age is all that can be desired. Plant is of Warfield type, introduced by M. Crawford, who says its strongest point is vigor of growth ; very pro- ductive of medium-sized berries, all of a size, looking as if cast from the same mold. We have read a number of testimonials and hope only one- half is true. At any rate it is worthy ot trial. Shuckless. [S]—This is a very late prolific berry of fair size and excellent flavor. Star. [SJ—A berry of the Sharpless type. Plant does far better than Sharpless for us; berry very large, of excellent flavor; only moder- ately productive. Succeeds best with high cultivation. Saunders. [S]—This one gave us a remarkable crop of large, fine colored berries; firm, of good flavor. A good pollenizer; plant very vig- orous and a good one to plant. Fruit stems are short
