VERMILION 



Vermilion berries are large in size, irregular in shape and the fruiting habit is close to 

 the ground causing a tendency to green sides. The skin is bright red with yellow seeds 

 and pale flesh. It ripens midseason in most areas. 



Vermilion was originated in Illinois. It is quite productive and the plants are resistant 

 to leaf spot, leaf scorch and the common strain of red stele. Growth is strong and upstand- 

 ing with an adequate number of big strong plants. Vermilion has shown great productive- 

 ness in the central states of Ohio, Indiana and Illinois and is certainly worthy of trial in 

 that area. Price list page 28.

 color is medium red and they are of good dessert quality with an excellent flavor. Temple

 strain of red stele and waslthe first of the good red stele resistant varieties. Price list page 28.

Stelemaster is a fine early variety in addition to its resistance to all three forms of the 

 red stele disease. It is a vigorous grower and quite productive. The berries are of a good

SENATOR DUNLAP 



Dunlap is a fine old variety that was found in Illinois in 1890. It is grown principally in 

 Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska, North Dakota and South Dakota. 



Dunlap berries are medium size and not too firm. They are very good as fresh fruit and 

 rated as average for processing. The berries are a bright, rich red clear through. 



Dunlap plants are vigorous growers but quite susceptible to leaf spot. We use copper 

 in our dusting schedule to combat this problem. We have a nice supply of beautiful Dunlap 

 plants this season. Price list page 28.
