A CATALOG OF NEW FRUITS 
STRAWBERRIES 
These varieties were derived from the cross of Howard by Marshall. The 
plants of this cross are exceptionally vigorous and excellent plant-makers ; 
the fruits are large, glossy, very attractive, very good in quality, and ripen 
in midseason. 
Camden—is a general market berry and noteworthy because of the extreme 
productiveness and vigor of the plants. The fruit characters are satisfac¬ 
tory for a market berry. The variety is a good plant-maker. 
Cato—is offered as a high-quality variety for home use. It is nearly the equal 
of Marshall in quality, and much superior in plant characters. Because the 
skin bruises easily it will not make a satisfactory market berry unless 
handled very carefully. 
Catskill—has done exceptionally well in the northeastern states. The plants 
are large, very vigorous, and yield very heavy crops. The berries are very 
large, roundish wedge, slightly irregular, moderately firm, dark red, but glossy 
and attractive, mild subacid and good in quality. The berries ripen in mid¬ 
season or about four days later than Howard. In 1930 this seedling re¬ 
ceived an award of merit from the Massachusetts Horticultural Society. 
Clermont—is a most excellent variety for both market and home use. The 
fruits are very large, and hold up well in size throughout the season. The 
berries are regular, very glossy and attractive, do not bruise easily, and 
are excellent in quality. The plants are somewhat susceptible to leafspot. 
This is one of the outstanding strawberries from the Station’s list. 
Culver—is a late midseason berry, rather dark in color, and well adapted for 
preserving. The berries are large, regular, and bruise slightly. The flavor 
is sprightly and the quality very good. Besides being excellent for pre¬ 
serving, it is a splendid sort for home use.
