ENCYCLOPEDIA OF PRACTICAL HORTICULTURE 
Gooseberries. 
1—Golden Prolific, a large English variety, green in color, turning yellow when ripe; quality 
excellent. 2—Keepsake, much like the Golden Prolific but does not bear as heavily. 3— 
Industry, another English variety turning dark red when ripe; quality excellent. 4—Chau- 
tauqua, a variety much like the Golden Prolific but of a lighter color. 5—White Smith, an 
English variety, medium to large, and of good quality when ripe. 6—Lancashire Lad, 
resembling the Chautauqua but not as prolific. T—DPearl, medium in size, midway between 
the English and American types, very prolific and an excellent berry. 8—Portage, large, 
dark red, spiny, of good quality. 9—Josselyn, medium in size, red when ripe, of good 
quality, very prolific. 10—Houghton, small, prolific, of good quality; its chief objection is 
its size. Oregon Champion Gooseberry is not in this list, but is one of the best varieties for 
Western Washington.
