Dvrsett 
Vigorous plant growth, firm rich red berries of 
tasty dessert quality, high yielder of fancy fruit, and 
almost a sure cropper—these are some of the qual¬ 
ities which make Dorsett an outstanding variety. 
This new berry is a cross between the Royal Sov¬ 
ereign (a popular English variety) and Premier made 
in 1923 by the United States Department of Agricul¬ 
ture. Although the Dorsett has not been given trial 
over a wide range of conditions as has the Bellmar, 
wherever tried it has been found to excel almost 
every other early berry in quality, and in many sec- 
DEVELOPED BY N. J. AGR. COLLEGE 
New Jersey trial grounds have proved Pathfinder to be 
one of the outstanding varieties it is possible to obtain. It is 
an enormous producer of large to extra large berries of fine 
texture, shape and firmness. A vigorous plant growth and 
good fruiting bed are characteristics of this outstanding 
variety; in addition to a striking uniformity of shape in the 
berries. Pathfinder ripens about the same time as Dorsett 
and Fairfax. We recommend that you give it a trial this year. 
But the supply is limited, so please order early. 
tions it promises to be a serious contender for com¬ 
mercial prominence. So rich in flavor is this new 
variety, and so high in yield, many prominent berry 
growers along the eastern coast are turning away 
from the favored Premier to the newer Dorsett. 
In color and appearance the Dorsett is rather dis¬ 
tinctive. This berry is dark red in color, of a brilliant 
hue, and it holds this color well. 
The calyx of the Dorsett berry is bright green, the 
size of the berry unusually large, and its shape very 
attractive. 
GEM—Everbearing 
Gem plants are usually medium to small, but make a very 
vigorous growth. Care should be taken to set Gem plants 
early and under good conditions. Once started they grow 
vigorously and make lots of plants. Thin severely for best 
results. Our records for two years show Gem about as pro¬ 
ductive as Mastodon in 1936 and considerably more productive 
in 1937. The berries average in size, are light in color, very 
showy, attractive and firm enough to ship. Quality is some¬ 
what tart but fine when sweetened. They sell for top prices.
