284 Report op the Horticulturist of the 



Mills JSTo. 22. From Chas. Mills, Fair Mount, N. F., 1893. 

 Mr. Mills reports that this is a seedling of Versaillaise crossed by 

 Red Dutch. The bush is moderately vigorous, somewhat spreading. 

 Clusters two and a half to three inches long. (See plate YIT, figure 

 9.) Fruit has a good color, lighter red than Fay. Berries are 

 usually large, but vary from small to very large. Pulp less acid 

 than that of Red Dutch. The variety has not been fruited here long 

 enough to justify a report as to its productiveness, but it appears to 

 be very productive. 



Mills No. 28. From Chas. Mills, Fair Mount, N. Y., 1893. 

 Mr. Mills reports that this is a seedling of Versallaise crossed by Red 

 Dutch. The bush is moderately vigorous, somewhat spreading. 

 Clusters good size, three to three and a half inches long. Fruit 

 medium size, dark red color, mild flavored. It has not been fruited 

 here long enough to justify a report as to its productiveness. 



Mills No. 29. From Chas. Mills, Fair Mount, N Y., 1893. 

 Mr. Mills reports that this is a seedling of Versallaise crossed by Red 

 Dutch. Bush a vigorous upright grower. Clusters short. Fruit 

 averages large but varies from small to large. Somewhat darker 

 than Mills 22 but brighter and better in color than that variety. 

 Good flavor, excellent quality. Has not fruited here long enough 

 to justify a report as to its productiveness. 



North Star. — From Jewell Nursery Co., Lake City, Minn, 

 and F. Moody (& So7is, Lockport, N. Y., 1892. Bush vigorous, 

 upright or somewhat spreading. Bunches medium length, (see 

 plate VI, figure T), color good, much like that of London Red or 

 Red Dutch. Fruit will probably average large with good cultiva 

 tion but varies from small to large. Pulp comparatively mild acid. 

 It has not been tested here long enough to justify a report as to its 

 productiveness. 



Prince Albert. — Bush vigorous, even more upright than Red 

 Dutch. Of all the varieties that are in full bearing here, this has 

 given the largest average yield per bush during the last three years, 

 though one year it took second rank, being exceeded in yield by 

 London Red. Prince Albert has long been valued as a late variety. 

 It is well liked at canneries because of its good size, thin skin and 

 large percentage of highly flavored juice. Bunches short to medium 

 in length. (See Plate VII, figure 12.) Fruit medium to large, 

 rather pale red, making it less attractive in color than Fay. The 

 young plants make a rather slow, short growth but with age the
