g6 FRUIT FARMING 



4. Fillbasket An enormous bearer of fine flavour, 

 fruit rather pale and long. This has done well in our 

 Kent fields. 



LATE. 



5. Givon's Late Prolific Fruit very large; as it 

 commences to ripen when Paxton's are done, this will 

 prove of great value when better known, as it resists 

 the scorching July sun better than any other, and its 

 ample foliage protects the fruit, which is of a deep 

 red colour and fine flavour. 



Givon's Late Prolific. 



If the land is very suitable for Strawberries, the old 

 " British Queen " may be tried, though " Dr. Hogg" is 

 a better form of it ; but as a rule, except where a first- 

 class trade is done, "Queens" do not pay. Planters 

 should be very chary of planting new kinds, as so 

 many fail to come up to market standards, though of 

 value in gardens.
