O/iarfe.— Cleveland Nursery Co. Plants of strong growth; blossomed 

 full but did not set much fruit. Fruit of medium size, regular form, good 

 appearance, of excellent quality, and quite firm. The variety is lacking 

 somewhat in productiveness, but is well worthy of trial. 



Cliilds. — Plants from Matthew Crawford, Cuyahoga Falls, O. Plants 

 of medium growth, blossomed very full and set a large amount of fruit. 

 Crop at best June 21. The fruit is large in size and of a bright crimson 

 color. Its productiveness, handsome appearance, high quality, and firm- 

 ness promise much for it as a valuable market variety. 



Dan Bisel. — Plants from Dan Bisel, Tonti, 111. No variety exceeds 

 this in vigor of growth and plant-producing qualities. Crop at best 

 June 18. The plants are very productive. The form is somewhat irregu- 

 lar but the quality is good and the berries are firm. Very promising as 

 an early market sort. 



Jay Oould. — Plants from Chas. A. Green, Rochester, N. Y. Plants 

 are of good growth. Crop at best June 20. The plants are productive; 

 the berry of good size, regular form, high in quality, and quite firm. 

 A promising market berry. 



Judsonia. — Plants from John Little, Granton, Ontario. The plants are 

 of fair growth and moderately productive, but the berries are light colored 

 and lacking in quality and firmness. 



Long John. — Plants from Thomas Wilde, Herrington, Mich. The 

 plants grow vigorously in hills, but produce very few runners. Crop at 

 best June 22. The fruit is of good size, very long conical form, and of 

 bright crimson color; the quality is good and the berry is moderately firm.

 propagate.

 growth. The berry is of good size and regular form. The color is dark 

 crimson and the quality excellent. Its handsome appearance and high 

 quality make it desirable for home use. The plants are moderately 

 productive.

 fruit. The berry is large in size, handsomer in appearance, and better in 

 quality than No. 5, but not as productive.

 large amount of fruit. Crop at best June 20. Fruit of good size, fine
