We have no iiesitancy in recommending it for gen- eral planting, especially so in the Northern and West- ern States, for an early profitable Black Cap. The Souhegan has stood the cold winters on our fields with- out being hurt a particle, where the Gregg and other varieties have been largely winter-killed. Ripens its entire crop very early and usually have the crop har- vested in ten or twelve days. The canes are very strong and especially hardy, with foliage healthy and free from rust. Wonderfully productive. Fruit of good size, jet black, with but little bloom, firm and of sweet, pleasant flavor. SOUHEGAN. Palmer Early.—An early Black Cap raised by Mr. Palmer of Ohio. It ripens the same time as Souhegan but yields much more fruit at the first picking, com- pletes ripening its crop in shorter time and commands the higher price in the market. PALMER EARLY.
