Report of the Horticulturist op the 



Glen Mary was the most productive variety on our grounds 

 this season. This fact together with its hirge per cent of late 

 yield, its large fruit and vigorous, healthy foliage will recom- 

 mend it for further trial. Beauty is only moderately productive 

 but of excellent quality. Giant is of large size and moderately 

 productive but of light color and soft. Gandy is the standard 

 late variety in many sections. It does not succeed in all locali- 

 ties, Robinson is fairly productive. The berries are of medium 

 size and good quality. Clarence and Hull No. 3 are no improve- 

 ment on better known varieties.
