 of good quality. Usually regarded as of special value as a late 

 variety, but has not held its own with us.

 soft and inferior in every way. 



GiUef<pie. (Perfect). — Medium to large, oblong or conical, often 

 with pronounced neck, firm, of good quality and color. One of the 

 best sorts for general purposes.

 uniform, bright red, moderately firm and of good quality. Good 

 for home and near market. 



Haverland. (Pistillate) . — Medium to large, oblong, regular, firm 

 and of good quality. Plants strong and vigorous ; free from rust. 

 A very good sort for general purposes. 



Jessie. (Perfect) — An early, sweet berry of good size. Oblong 

 or conical, bright glossy red, handsome and of good quality. It 

 has been one of the most satisfactory with us but is not uniformly 

 reliable.

 and of light color. Not prolific.

 Very productive, but small and of second quality. Blossoms very 

 early and the flower trusses are short and well protected. Plants 

 only moderately vigorous. 



Mount Vernon. (Perfect). — Medium size, roundish conical, 

 uniform. Of no special value. 



Parker Earle. (Perfect). — Very productive, of large elongated 

 fruit having a pronounced neck ; firm and of good quality. The 

 plants are very strong and vigorous, but send out few runners, hence 

 should be planted thickly in the row. A valuable sort.

 fruit a little dull in color, but large, nearly spherical, uniform, 

 moderately firm and of good quality. Medium to late in season. 

 One of the best general purpose sorts.
