a large commercial field, the writer saw 

 acres of virus free Catskill more than 

 doubling the yield of Premier along side 

 them. All over the Catskill territory, which 

 included the northern and upper middle 

 states, Catskill has definitely comeback. 

 One of the best growers in central Penn- 

 sylvania, after viewing his field grown from 

 our virus free Catskill plants, wrote us, "I 

 have never had plants that grew so well. 

 We have an acre of Catskill with rows 4 

 feet wide. We thinned and spaced the run- 

 ners and they are beautiful." 



All of our stock of Catskill this year is 

 virus free. The plants have made a wonder- 

 ful growth with beautiful plants, as pretty 

 as you ever saw. 



Catskill berries, in case you have for- 

 gotten or never knew, average large in size. 

 Catskill produces more large berries than 

 any variety we have ever seen. 



Catskill berries are good in quality, bet- 

 ter than Premier, not as good as Fairfax. 



Catskill berries are moderately firm, 

 somewhat firmer than Premier, not as firm 

 as Blakemore. 



Catskill berries are light in color when 

 first picked, becoming somewhat darker on 

 holding, about the same as Premier in this 

 respect. 



Catskill berries are among the very high- 



est of all varieties in vitamin C content. 



Catskill berries are very showy and at- 

 tractive in the package, resulting in good 

 market prices for the fruit. 



Catskill berries stand wet weather better 

 than many varieties which are really firmer. 



Catskill berries are good for freezing, 

 and well liked by processors generally. 

 They are easy to pick and cap. 



Catskill has a longer record of frost re- 

 sistance and hardiness of any leading 

 variety except Premier. 



Virus free Catskill plants make a very 

 vigorous growth with plenty of large strong 

 productive plants. In productiveness Cat- 

 skill has not been surpassed— equalHed only 

 by a few like Premier, Tennessee Beauty, 

 Sparkle, etc. 



Plant Catskill for Big Crops of Big 

 Berries. As a sure-fire profit combination 

 for the northern and upper middle states, 

 plant Premier for early, Catskill for mid- 

 season to late. Price list page 32.
