Productiveness. Compare the 1933 and '34 trial 

 plot production of the Dorsett and Premier and judge 

 for yourself.

 Premier .... 1 0562 quarts 1 1 238 quarts 



This table shows total production, but does not show 

 the average superiority of every berry produced by 

 Dorsett plants over the Premier. The total Dorsett 

 crop produces almost no small fruit. 



This berry gives us more food for genuine enthusiasm 

 than any variety we can remember, and we do not hesi- 

 tate to recommend it as being the biggest scource of 

 profit the strawberry grower can hope to obtain at the 

 present writing. Read the following description and judge 

 for yourself whether you can AFFORD to neglect plant- 

 ing this variety. 



Color. Medium light. Lightness retained even after 

 it ripens. 



Size. Fully as large as Chesapeake. 



Firmness. Much firmer than the Premier and thus 

 ideal for long-distance shipping as well as for local 

 markets. 



Vigor. In this respect, the Dorsett stands supreme. 

 Vigorous in growth, free from disease, and maintains 

 healthy foliage throughout the fruiting season. 



Quality. Even in on over-supplied market, the large, 

 fine Dorsetts have consistently brought TWICE the 

 price of many other standard varieties, showing that 

 the American buyer is still able to pay higher prices 

 for real universal quality. 



Frost Resistance. Little, if any, loss has been re- 

 ported from late frosts.
