While not quite as rugged as Premier, Fairfax is a very hardy variety that usually 
comes through with a fine crop. It is just as widely adapted as Premier. It is good in 
North Carolina and Tennessee, splendid in the middle states and is voted the best road- 
side market berry in Maine. 
As a berry for Commercial planting, Fairfax is good! And Profitable! 
As a berry for Local and Roadside Trade, Fairfax is grand! And Popular! 
As a berry for the Home Garden, Fairfax is strictly TOPS! 
Fairfax benies 
are Beauties. 
Leavenworth Co., Kans., Feb. 26, 1945. I think 
about four years ago I ordered from you my first 
Fairfax plants and I am very much an admirer of the 
Fairfax. Right now while sugar is so scarce I am 
more than fond of the Fairfax, it is such a sweet 
berry. 
Mrs. Edna E. Davis 
• Caldwell Co., N. C, January 4, 1945. I am pleased 
to report that the 500 Fairfax that I got from you two 
years ago have been the best that I have ever grown. 
They produce a good bed of plants and berries in 
spite of cold weather and dry weather. 
Mr. Glen T. Hickman 
Washington Co., R. I., March 20, 1945. I've for- 
gotten how many years since I first experimented 
with your Fairfax plants, but I do know that half a 
dozen neighbors sent to you for Fairfax plants the 
next year and some of them still are buying your 
plants. I have never lost a single plant from your 
stock. 
Mrs. L. D. Hoskins 
Bradford Co., Pa., February 1, 1945. In 1943 I 
bought 200 premier, 200 Catskill. 200 Fairfax from 
you. The Fairfax seems to be the best for my 
ground, as they made the most even setting and are 
strong enough to hold their berries up. During the 
early picking last year we had some very hot days 
with thunderstorms. It affected the Premier with a 
brown soft rot so that even the green berries lost two 
pickings. It affected the Fairfax very little. I have 
thought because the Fairfax held their berries up 
where the air could get to them is what saved them. 
My troubles are small, I suppose, but that is the 
reason I am ordering Fairfax, and if you have to 
substitute give me a variety with some of the good 
gualities of the Fairfax.
