bush is dwarfish in habit but vigorous and productive. It has 

 long been l^nown in England as a desirable variety either for 

 home use or market. We do not consider it as desirable as the 

 Industry, which is a much stronger grower and more productive. 

 Sometimes it is attacked quite severely by the mildew.
