IMPROVED BREAK O'DAY (NEW) 



The plants of this improved strain are fully as vigorous as the 

 original stock, but the foliage is considerably heavier, thus 

 giving better protection to the fruits from sun-scald. The fruits 

 are globe shaped, fully as large as Break O'Day, and of a bright 

 scarlet color; entirely free from the yellowish tinge that was 

 characteristic of the old strain. The flesh is very firm and deep 

 red in color. „ 1/4 , b ||}
