GREENVILLE. 
would sav it resembles it m growth. 1 he leat is a ngmer grc , grower and more free to 
run. The fruit is not 
quite so large as the Bu- 
bach, but is of better 
quality and much more 
solid, making a good 
shipping variety. Com- 
pared with Bubach, 
Warfield, Haverland, 
Gandy, Crescent, and 
Cumberland, on a scale 
often points, Greenville 
obtained the highest av- 
erage. In the ten points, 
it has five firsts, while 
the six varieties above 
combined only made six 
firsts, thus showing that 
no other berry of the 
leading varieties named 
includes anything like so 
many of essential points 
as Greenville. The 
above scale was as fol- • 
lows : Productiveness, 
Firmness, Quality, Size, 
Color, Near Market, 
Distant Market, Home 
Use, and General Pur- 
poses. It was No. 1 in 
Productiveness, Qual- 
ity, Near Market, Home 
Use, and General Pur- 
poses; was No. 2 in Size, 
and Distant Market ; 
hence it is a rare case 
when you find one par- 
ticular fruit that will 
rank, as this, over the 
above selections from 
about fifty varieties. 
We cannot say too 
much for this berry, as it 
is one of the very best, 
and it will, when known, 
be planted extensively, 
as fruit growers, for 
commercial purposes, 
cannot grow anything that will give them more satisfaction. The plant and foliage are entirely hardy with us, 
and Grfenville will be one of life berries for the masses. Our stock of this vanety is large, and we have made 
rates very low. . M1 . 
The following is the official report of the Ohio Agricultural Experiment Station of 1891 : | he Greenville is 
a strong competitor of the Bubach, and indeed bear! some resemblance to that vanety. The plants are a shade 
lighter m color than the Bubach, make a stronger growth, and are quite as productive. berries ave ag a 
little smaller than Bubach, but are more uniform in size and regular in outline, and of finer texture, it seems 
probable that the Greenville will have the important advantage over the Bubach of being a better shipper. 
“ Have nothing to take back of what we have said in the former reports regarding Greenville. It is a first- 
class market berry 8 andisgood enough for home use. The plants are healthy and productive; the berries of 
fafr siTe and attractive! I rank Greenville as among the best.”-IF. J. Green, Horticultural of Ohio Agri- 
cultural Experiment Station, Columbus, Ohio, August 3 , 1892 .

Z suZer sending out a good number of runners, and bearing abundantly. The blossom is perfect, and , 
remains in bloom a long time. In fact, it always matures a part of its crop before it is done blooming. This is 
a valuable characteristic, because it will prevent any great loss by a late frost, and also make it a rare vane y 
to plant with pistillates. ”
