of ripening- is the longest of any variety in our collection. Last summer we 
picked a good supply of choice berries for nearly two weeks after other varieties 
were gone. The plants are very prolific, the runners are long setting plants, 
far enough a part for good fruiting row. Berries extra large, of good form and 
color and of fine quality. 
Drontli King. Plants are a moderate grower and fairly productive. 
Berries are medium in size, firm and of fair quality. 
LATH VARIETIES. 
Aroma. One of the most popular late market varieties where best known. 
A good healthy grower and abundant cropper of large, handsome fruit of high 
quality and firm. The berries somewhat resemble the Gandy, but more prolific. 
The Western Fruit Grower says: 
The Aroma is the favorite berry in Neosho, Mo., and that 650 
acres of this variety is grown within a radius of four miles for market. 
Challenge. The P laht is huge and healthy, a fair grower, sends out 
a moderate number of strong runners and bears a good crop of large berries. 
The first berries to ripen are somewhat uneven but the remainder are quite uni- 
form in size and shape. Fruit exceedingly firm, dark red to the center, of fair 
quality, and unsurpassed as a shipper. 
Klondike. I have considered this my best late variety. It is a thrifty 
grower making many rather small but strong plants, with thick dark green 
foliage, The blossoms are late and are not likely to be killed by frost. It is a 
great producer of large firm berries, dark red in color and of good quality. 
Dorman. The largest and healtiest looking plant on my place. It is a 
strong grower making a good row of well rooted stocky plants. The berries are 
large, dark red, light in side, and of high quality. It has perfect blossoms and 
is a good producer, desirable for table use or fancy market. 
fluto. Simular to the Dorman, only larger and more productive. Fruit 
is large to very large, hold its size well to the last picking. Berries of fine color 
and shape, firm, quality the best, very sweet and rich. Plants are large and 
thrifty, free from rust or blight, and quite prolific. 
President. The plants and the fruit are the largest of any variety on 
my place. It is a strong grower, producing an abundance of thick leathery 
foliage, dark green in color, standing very erect, and a thick stocky fruit stalk. 
Berries are extra large, uniform in size and shape, being almost round, firm and 
solid, withorft 'hollow or pithy core. Fruit of good quality and produced in 
abundance. 
Gommonwealtii. The variety is a vigorous grower, very hardy and sets 
plants the right distance apart for a good fruiting row. The Introducer 
saj's, "The berry is large as the largest, as productive as any of the largest.” 
Each plant here send up from two to four strong fruit stalks, all full of large 
solid dark glossy red berries. Very juicy and sweet, andof excellent quality. 
The Commonwealth is very late. We picked our first ripe berries after other 
varieties were nearly gone. 
Success. A large healthy plant but unproductive here. The blossoms 
were destitute of stamens, we have better varieties.
