VIII. Jersey Queen (P).— The plant is 

 very healthy, a fair grower, of beautiful green foli- 

 age, very often as fresh a green after fruiting as 

 before. The season of fruit is very late ; has been 

 the standard late berry for some years. Size of 

 fruit large to very large, of fine glossy appearance, 

 that brings the highest price in the market. It 

 makes a better growth of plants the second year 

 than the first ; the berry is firm and good quality, 

 medium in productiveness. I consider it valuable, 

 as it extends the fruiting season sometimes a week 

 or more. Sixth year of fruiting.

IX. Maple Bank (P.) — A seedling by 

 William Stevenson, of Guelph, Ont.; thought to 

 be a cross of Crescent and Wilson. The plant is 

 a strong vigorous grower, making wide matted row. 

 Season medium to late ; size of berry large, quality 

 best, very firm and productive. Third year of 

 fruiting.

X. Belle, or Crawford's No. 51 (S).— 



A seedling of unknown parentage, by M. T. 

 Thompson, of Va. The plant is a strong grower 

 and healthy ; season of fruit very late, none ripe 

 on 4th July, when other kinds were almost over 

 fruiting. Size of berry large, long and often irre- 

 gular, some fan-shaped. Quality of fruit good and 

 berry is firm and plant quite productive. Second 

 year of fruiting.
