CRAWFORD. J ucu nda—A strawberry of the largest size, high color, holding its fruit well up on the vines, bringing the highest price in market. ^Crawford—AVe take pleasure in introducing this valuable variety to the public, having purchased the entire right of the originator, Mr. Matthew Crawford, who says of it: " The most valuable seedling I ever raised ; after fruiting it a number of years, I was so well pleased with it that I gave it my name and put it in the hands of several growers to be tested. It has generally proved satis- factory. I have never seen a finer show of large and beautiful berries on any variety than on it. The plant is large and stocky, usually free from rust; a luxuriant grower and an abundant bearer; blossom perfect, very strongly staminate ; fruit very large and usually of regular form ; first berries are sometimes slightly flattened or triangu- lar, but never cox-comb or misshapen ; it has a smooth surface and is of beautiful red color, ripening without white ends. The seeds are even with the surface or slightly raised ; this, with its firm flesh, enables it to endure handling and carrying with but lit- tle damage. It is of good ; In the spring of 1887 Mr. Crawford sent us some to test. They grew vigorously, making strong, healthplants and produced a fine crop of fruit of superior appearance and excellent quality. The next season, 1888, they sur- passed everything else we had in our nursery, and we recommend them with the greatest confidence, both for home use and market. Jersey Queen (p)—A large, handsome scarlet berry, fiesh firm, melting and high flavored. Plant moderately vigorous and productive. A
