Timbrell. The party who furnished us our plants says: 
"This is a variety of great merit, and all who have it should 
increase their stock as fast as possible. That il will be a stand- 
ard variety there is no doubt. I have watclied it carefully, and 
am glad to report that it lias not a single weak point. The 
plant is a luxuriant grower and enormously productive. The 
fruit is very large, nearly always regular, conical form, crim-' 
son color, firm, of excellent quality, and one of the latest to 
ripen." 
Were we limited to one variety, our choice would be Timbrell. —

be salable, Strawberries must be of good size and atlracti\'e in form

have the same soil and treatment. Prominence is given to such as we 
consider to be the best. These we plant most largely for market and 
for sale. — Address to Hampden Harvest Club.
