Pop wants you to know that out Midland plants this year are really tine Thai's what our Midland did for us in 19461 its right to be called In several fruiting seasons (2 as a named variety) Midland has proved Midland is a cross of Premier X Redheart. Years of heavy and successful cropping have given Premier, Catskill, and Fairfax a record which Midland cannot match yet—but favorable reports have come from such widely scattered states as Missouri, Massachusetts, Nebraska, Connecticut, Maryland, New York, VirgTnia, Ohio, Iowa, and North Carolina. In experiment station tests at Raleigh, N. C in 1945, yields from 15 leading varieties were taken. Midland yield was 278 crates per acre, 23% higher than the second best and 65% above the average. A Con- necticut berry specialist, with years of experience in breeding and testing strawberries writes, "Midland and Fair- peake are the two best varieties for this section that I have grown here. Midland was nearly ideal in every ; With us here in Maryland, Midland surely looks like a winner. Plant Growth—very vigorous. Fewer plants than Premier but larger, even stronger ones than Fedrfax. Under good conditions plenty for a good fruiting row without bothering much about thinning. Many indi- vidual leaves taken from the Midland rows pictured above measured SVa to 4 inches across—splendid equipment for the wonderful job of producing that Midland does. Productiveness—more productive than Fairfax. Most productive berry we fruited in 1946. We had some of nearly all except Premier and Catskill. Midland will produce with these master-croppers. Sixe of Berries—larger than Premier. Equals or sur- passes Fairfax and Catskill in average size. Appearance—Berries medium red — darke
