Ohio is one of the best ; will yield a third more than 

 any berry I know; is very llrm and large; one of the 

 best for drying; begins to ripen about the time of 

 the Doolittle, and lasts till after the M. Cluster. Will 

 pick as much as any of the varieties at a picking. It 

 is equal to the Gregg, if not better. If by mail, add
