312 STATE HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY. 



Eldorado.— Stood winter as well as Snyder; new growth good; most blossoms 

 killed, and the fruit remaining is imperfect; closely resembles Snyder in cane and 

 growth, though leaflets are a lighter green and the cane has more red, with larger 

 and longer spines. A very promising, hardy sort. 



Lincoln.— Stood winter almost as well as Snyder; new growth excellent; no fruit. 



Minnewaski.— Stood winter fairly well; new growth very strong; no fruit. 



Snyder.— Quite badly injured by winter; canes killed half of length; new growth 

 strong; bore but little fruit. 



Stone's Hardy.— Did not stand winter as well as Snyder, but some cane growth 

 left; bore little fruit. 



Taylor's Prolific— Stood winter about the same as Stone's Hardy; some fruit, but 

 small and imperfect. 



Agawam, Jewett, and Kittatinny were killed nearly to ground; no fruit borne. 



Childs Early Cluster, Erie, Ford's No. 1, Ohmer, Wilson Early, Wilson Jr., and 

 White Blackberry were killed to ground and bore no fruit.
