“ I have never seen a strawberry that in all respects impressed me so 
favorably. In this I think the strawberry has been discovered that has long 
been sought for.”— Peter B. Mead. 
“ I truly believe it is destined to become one of the most popu¬ 
lar.” —E. P. Roe. 
“ I deem it worthy of extensive cultivation ; combining all the require- 
_ ments for market or family use.”—W m. Parry.

the rocky land

plants of the Sharpless, vie with them in growth and it surpasses the Sharp- 
k less in quality of fruit.”—E. Williams. 
As grown on 
the alluvial soil 
of the Connect¬ 
icut Valley. 
“ The Manchester has more good qualities than any other Strawberry in 
cultivation. For shape, color, flavor, beauty, firmness and uniform large

it has no equal.” —F. M. Hexamer.

“I have sold the berry refered to above for seven years, * * * 
From its large size, bright color, fine appearance and firmness it invariably 
commands high prices. Further, it keeps its color the best of any berry I 
have ever handled and ‘stands up’ well.”—C. W. Idell. 
“We shall he greatly disappointed if the Manchester does not make its 
mark in the future. ’’—AMERICAN AGRICULTURIST.
