tudes farther South than Virginia and on 
lower elevations farther North than New 
York. The one important weakness of 
Dorsett is the fact that it does not set 
fruit as persistently as Premier and some 
of the other varieties. Under adverse con- 
ditions the blossoms are sometimes killed 
or weakened so much that the crop is dis- 
appointing. In those areas where late 
frosts are common, Premier and Fairfax 
will be better, but for the latitudes sug- 
gested, Dorsett is one of the most profit- 
able early berries we have ever seen.

Dorsett Berries Wonderful 
Adams Co., Pa. April 7th, 1938. I often thought 
I would write and tell you how wonderful I thought 
your Dorsett berries are. They get so large and have 
a wonderful taste and everyone thinks they are de- 
licious. I had only a small bed and raised bushels 
since i had them. It was three or four years ago since 
I sent for them. Am sending an order for 200 more. — 
Mrs. Dennis Kline. 
Better than Fairfax in Georgia 
Cobb Co., Ga. April 21st, 1938. I sure am pleased 
with the Dorsett this season. Last season the ends of 
berries seemed to rot, but none now and plants are 
very full of a nice shaped berry. With me this does 
much better than Fairfax, makes more plants and 
more berries. They are coloring up now but we need 
some more sunshine. — Mr. C. E. Hedges. 
Everyone Wants Them 
Middlesex Co., Mass. June 16, 1938. On May 8th 
I purchased from you 200 Dorsett and 200 Fairfax 
plants. This season I have picked some of the most 
wonderful berries I ever saw and everyone wants 
them. — Mr. Cabot Devoll. 
Can't Supply Demand for Dorsett 
Carbon Co., Mont., Apr. 6, 1938. We got Dorsctts 
from you four years ago. They were not so good the 
first two years but now they are fine. The only 
trouble is I can't get enough to supply the demand. 
I hope the Green Mountain will be as good. — Mrs. 
J. M. Smith. 
Dorsett and Fairfax Outsold All Others 
Suffolk Co., N. Y. Feb. 16, 1938. I am not c lering 
any plants this year but I do want to tell you th t the 
Dorsett and Fairfax I had from you in 1936 I picked 
last May outsold all the rest around me, fine and 
large and sold quick. I am sorry I am not setting 
this year. — Mr. M. S. LaMotte. 
Top Market Prices 
Jackson Co., Ohio. May 31st, 1938. Our early ber- 
ries did wonderfully although we had a frost after the 
berries started to ripen and then a hail storm which 
did some damage, but the berries were wonderful. 
They were Dorsett and Fairfax. Got top market prices 
for them. — Mr. B. F. Grafton.
