TUBBS— This is a good berry uf Crescent type. In size it runs through 
the season a^out like the first picking of Crescent, does not run down toward 
last part of season like the Crescent. Very productive. In Anne Arundel 
county, where it originated, it is considered the best berry grown. It has a 
perfect blossom and is a vigorous grower. Those who have never grown 
it should not fail to give it a trial, I think it will please them. I like it, and 
grow it largely for fruit, and shall plant more. 
PARKER EARLE (Arnot’s.)—The plant is a strong robust grower, with a 
perfect blossom, and an enormous yielder of large slightly flattened, bright 
crimson berries, with short neck, the calyx turning back from the berry, giv¬ 
ing it a fine appearance. The flavor of the best. It ripens evenly and is a good 
shipper. They are free to make runners the first season which is very essential 
to berry growers, and have stood a temperature of fourteen degrees below zero 
without protection, never freezing out. They require rich soil as they set so 
much fruit. They ripen about with Crescent, are termed midseason, and con¬ 
tinue to bear about three weeks.
