Careless. — Fruit very large, oblong, smooth, pale green, sweet, best 

 quality. iBush a moderately strong grower; has mildewed some. An ex- 

 hibition variety. 



Catherine. — Fruit medium to large, oblong, nearly smooth, yellow, 

 nearly sweet, good. Bush not a strong grower; has mildewed very slightly. 



Chautauqua. — Received at this Station in 1888 for testing from 

 Louis Roesch, Fredonia, Chautauqua county, N. Y. Mr, Roesch 

 obtained it from a garden in Dunkirk, N. Y. Its name was un- 

 known, so he decided to introduce it under the name Chautauqua. 

 The bush is a vigorous grower, and generally healthy, although 

 sometimes subject to mildew. The fruit is large, roundish ob- 

 long, smooth, pale green, best quality. See figure 61, plate XX. 

 Although it has not been as productive as some other varieties 

 here we have no hesitation in recommending it for trial for home 

 use. In other localities it may be productive enough to make it 

 valuable for market, but it has not been so here when compared 

 with Industry, Wellington Glory and some other European 



kinds.
