enough for a grand row to fruit. The fruit is remarkable for its size and fine 

 color. We place it among the productive ones. Fruit enormously large and 

 very showy ; good quality ; sweet. It is perhaps the very best for the home 

 grower, and near market, always selling and bringing good prices when the 

 market is glutted with Crescent and other trash. 



III. — Warfield No. 2 (P). Originating in 

 Illinois. This is a wonderfully strong grower and 

 great producer of plants, it resembles the Michel's 

 Early in this respect, making almost too many run- 

 ners. It is very productive, we place it along with 

 the Haverland in productiveness. Fruit medium 

 to large in size, is one of the firmest in the berry — 

 equal to the old Wilson in this respect. Quality 

 good and of a fine rich dark color. The berries are 

 all perfect in shape, regular, no ill-shaped ones. It 

 is one of the best, if not the best for long shipment 

 — carrying in good condition the longest distances 

 to market. Fig. 784.— Warfield. 



IV. — Anna FoPPest. Foliage large and 

 healthy. The fruit is large, somewhat irregular; 

 sweet and pleasant. It is a free runner ; only 

 moderately productive. The fruit colors up some- 

 thing like Sharpless. Altogether, with us, it is not 

 a promising variety ; we have decided to discard 

 it. So many better ones.

v.— Dayton (S). Originating in Ohio. This 

 is a strong healthy grower, making many runners ; 

 plant very healthy. The fruit is large, light in 

 color, not very firm, and only moderately produc- 

 tive. We have planted it two seasons, in doubt 

 about it, but have about decided to discard it ; 

 there are so many better that we have no doubt 

 about.
