Seaford. (B ) Variety shows health and vigor. Said to be 
early, large, four times as productive as Bubach, a good shipper, of 
good color and quality, and to bring extremely high prices. We 
hope it will fulfil the claims made for it, especially the last one, as 
we are greatly in need of such a Strawberry at the present time.

Star. (B.) A very promising Ohio berry. Plant vigorous and 
very healthy. Not fruited here yet. Said to be very large, of fine 
quality, extremely productive, to mature all its berries in a dry

point to the standard market varieties, We are favorably impressed 
with its behavior thus far. 50 cts. per doz , $[.50 per too.
