A Field of Fairfax Plants 
Fairfax 
A VERY HANDSOME BERRY OF PROVED MERIT IS 
ALWAYS IN DEMAND AMONG BERRY GROWERS. THIS 
PLACE FAIRFAX ADMIRABLY FILLS. WHERE GROWERS HAVE 
FOUND CHESAPEAKE UNSATISFACTORY WE UNHESITATINGLY 
RECOMMEND THE FAIRFAX. 
APPEARANCE 
It is one of the handsomest we have ever seen as well as one of the very 
largest. It is perhaps true to say that there is none growing today that will 
average as large as the Fairfax. While the color is somewhat darker than 
most desirable, the gloss and beauty of the fruit compensates for that. 
FIRMNESS 
Perhaps the firmest of all the kinds that are growing today. It will keep 
on the vines until it dries up. This is most unusual in a berry of such size. 
SELLING POWER 
In all markets that we know anything about it has always outsold all 
competitors. In a year when the demand is good this may not be deeply 
significant, but in a season of over production IT MAY MEAN THE DIF¬ 
FERENCE BETWEEN PROFIT AND LOSS. 
NO THINNING NECESSARY 
Fairfax will not get too thick when permitted to make the full quota of 
plants natural to it. For this reason the plants are very large. 
It ripens about three days later than the Premier. 
“YOU CAN PAY MORE BUT YOU CANNOT BUY BETTER.”
