EXPERIMENTAL FARMS 



5-6 EDWARD VII., A. 1906 



In the following table will be found a list of the fifty varieties which have given 

 tlie best average yield in a test of from two to five years. Of these the Sample, Bus- 

 ter, Bisel, Glen Mary, Greenville, Beder Wood, Marie, Warfield, Enliance Barton's 

 Eclipse, Thompson's Late, Dora, Daisy, Howard's 41, and Splendid, are - among 

 the most satisfactory, taking into consideration other qualities as well as yield. In 

 addition to the above, Bubach and Lovett are two excellent varieties for home use, arid 

 Williams is one of the best for long distance shipment, although the Pocomoke, a firm 

 newer variety, has yielded better and may take its place. The Early Beauty is a 

 promising new early variety. The Afton, Daniel Boone and Stevens' Early, whch 

 have averaged a little better than Warfield in yield, are almost, if not quite, identical 

 with the latter Variety.
