FAIRFAX 
DORSETT. A new beautifully colored market berry of wonderful quality 
and cropping ability. You do not know how delicious a strawberry can be 
until you have eaten Dorsett picked good and ripe from the vines. Like 
Blakemore it is inclined to make too many plants. 
FAIRFAX. I believe better in quality than Dorsett also larger plants and 
larger berries. It is about the same in production. For home use and di¬ 
rect to customer or local market, it is our favorite. For shipping market 
they are a little too dark in color unless picked as soon as nicely colored. 
However for canning, jam and preserves they have the richest red straw¬ 
berry color and most delicious flavor. In this respect I know of none other 
to equal the Fairfax. 
SOUTHLAND. Good large plants, well spaced, and the berries are as beau¬ 
tiful as any. The quality and color are nearly equal to Dorsett or Fairfax. 
Highly recommended as a quality berry for home or local market for the 
warm lands of the states south of the Mason and Dixon line. 
BIG JOE. Perhaps the best of the mid-season berries for market. Vigorous 
plants, large beautiful berries that ship well and are of good quality. 
BEAUTY. Mid-season. Large vigorous plants; beautiful large berries as 
its name implies. Perhaps better for home market than for shipping long 
distances. 
FRUITLAND. Large perfect berries; a good shipper. In 1934 it produced 
more marketable berries than any other variety fruited. In 1935 we sold 
all our plants.
