November, 1971 Your records of my order for berry plants for the spring of 1970 will show 

 that it included 500 Raritan. They did better than any berry that I ever had in all the years that 

 I have grown strawberries. After they were finished bearing, I decided to hold them over for 

 the next years fruiting. Now they look even far nicer than they did last year at this time. They 

 have astonished me. Raritan is the berry I am staying with from now on. After the first picking 

 they are not of champion size anymore but they yield — and yield — and yield.
