This variety was inquired about but no one could give any infor- 
mation. et 
Cumberland Triumph. 
Mr. Cook. I have not fruited surficiently to say anything about it. 
Champion and Monarch of the West. 
President Smith. A year ago. last winter the Champion stood 
with me without protection. It was was the hardiest of all, a 
pistillate variety. The Monarch of the West killed out entirely. 
Cinderella. 
Inquiry was made concerning this variety, but no one had tested 
it. 
Great American. 
Mr. Cook. I have plants of this variety. They have survived 
one winter, but have not fruited. 
Mr. Hart. J like its growth, but have not fruited it much. I 
like it as far as I have seen it. 
Hart’s Seedling. 
President Smith. I received some plants in 1876. Last year I 
set five rows and they grew well; got some fruit from the old vines; 
have seen the fruit several times and think it is not excelled. 
Mr. Elliot. J also received plants in 1876. Last spring I found 
two plants alive, and these grew well. I have seen the fruit, and 
its appearance recommends it, but it does not handle like the Wil- 
son; it handles, however, somewhav better than the Charles Down- 
ing. ‘ 
Mr. Hart. Mr. Elliot has described it well. It bears better than 
the Wilson, and the fruit is better, but there are kinds with still 
better fruit. 
Mr. Harris. I received ten vines in midsummer, and they all 
lived. I transplanted some the following spring, and these bore 
the same season. I move that a commitee from Rochester be 
appointed to visit Mr. Hart’s strawberry next summer, and that 
other members of the society be invited to accompany this com- 
mittee. The motion was seconded and carried and Messrs. Coook, 
Sias and Mason appointed such committee.
