New York Agricultural Experiment Station. 351 



Mills has received favorable notice in former reports of this 

 Station. Its fruit is somewhat larger than that of the Ohio, of 

 good quality, firm and somewhat seedy. It is worthy of a trial 

 as an evaporating berry. 



Ohio is one of the standard varieties, and is much used for 

 evaporating. It does not thrive in many localities. 



Onondaga has also received favorable notice in former reports. 

 The berries are large and attractive and of good quality. 



Lotta is only moderately productive of medium size fruit. 



Artie is moderately productive of medium to large size fruit. 



Babcock No. 3 is an attractive berry of large size, good quality 

 and somewhat seedy. It was moderately productive this season, 



Bahcock No. 5 received favorable notice in last year's report. 

 This season it takes third rank as to productiveness; the fruit 

 is medium to large in size, good quality and attractive in 

 appearance. 



Carman has received favorable notice in former reports of this 

 Station as an early berry. The plants now in fruiting for some 

 reason have not done well, so that this year's record cannot be 

 regarded as showing what the variety is really worth. 



Haijnes Seedling as grown here has shown no points of superi- 

 ority over well known kinds. 



Hilborn has been fruited here since 1890, nnd has been very 

 satisfactory as a mid-season berry. The fruit is large, attractive 

 and of good quality. 



Kansas ranks fourth in productiveness this season. It has 

 become quite popular in many sections as a productive market 

 berry, 



Lovett produces large, attractive fruit, but it has not been 

 productive enough here to warrant its being recommended for 

 extensive planting. 



Manwaring No. 1 though planted in the fall of 1893, the plants 

 have not yet become established. Much of the fruit dried up on 

 the, bushes this season. 



Mohler is said by many to be identical with Eureka. This 

 season Eureka ripened its first fruit fully a week earlier, and 

 was much less productive than Mohler. The fact that the
