every variety, worthy of culture.

wliich in point of size, beautv, yield, lokg beaking, 
sniPPIXG QUALITIES, VIGOT. OP PLAXT, PP.OFIT, and Other 
desir.able qualities, is par in advance of any other variety, 
of which we liave knowledge. A few acres of it, in tiie 
neighborhood of any good market, would be quite a fortune. 
Dr. Jno. a. Warder, says: “It is the most remarkable 
fruit of its class tliat has ever come under my observation.” 
A. W, Harrison, after first seeing it on our grounds, says: 
“I at once determined to plant no otlier, and regarded it as 
the Strawberry of the future, par excellence." Mr. B. Bate- 
ham, says: “ Could corroborate all tliat others have said of 
its great beauty, size, and excellence of flavor.” Geo. JI. 
Beeler, says: “I saw great qu.antltics, ten or twelve ber¬ 
ries of wliioli filled a pint, » » * Busiiels of tlieinsold 
every day in market, wliicli brouglit one dollar per quart.” 
Thomas Meehan, says: But tiie greatest of all Knox's 
Strawberries is undoubtedly‘TOO.’” These gentlemen all 
lormed tlielr judgment of tills remarkable fruit, fi'om seeing 
it on our grounds, some of tliem, for several siiceessivo years.
