This is the finest of its class ; one of several that have proved successful, handsome, and has succeeded wherever it has been tried. A strong grower and exceedingly productive.

This variety has been praised very highly of late, and I do not think in any way has been misrepresented ; it is healthy, vigorous and very productive. Its bunches are from 3 to 5'-^ inches in length, so they can be easily picked, and the berry commands a high price. It is somewhat larger
