 son medium ; berries large and irregular ; color deep red ; qual- 

 ity good ; flesh firm and dark ; yield light to medium ; slightly 

 affected by mildew.

 Blooms early ; clusters large ; plant a fair grower ; season early 

 to medium; berries large; shape oblong, blunt pointed; sur- 

 face rough ; color dark ; flesh light, of fair quality and mod- 

 erately firm; yield medium; a fair mid-season variety.

 phints; quite vigorous; leaf small; season early; 

 berries medium to small; shape conical, dis- 

 tinctly necked; color dark crimson; quality 

 good, slightly acid; flesh quite firm; yield me- 

 dium to good; inclined to set too many runners
