Dorsett and Fairfax were introduced by Buntings 1 in 1933, in 
co-operation with the U. S. Department of Agriculture. Today 
they are leaders in the strawberry world. Especially is this true 
in the eastern section of the country. The high points are (1) a 
tremendous crop of berries of large size and of average to excellent 
shipping qualities, (2) of highest strawberry flavor, very much 
sought after in the markets. When once a customer buys Dorsett 
or Fairfax, and serves them in his place of business or to his 
family and guests, in his home, when he calls again at the 
market for strawberries he asks for Dorsett and Fairfax. 
We unquestionably recommend both varieties. 
See page 27 for actual photograph of Dorsett and Fairfax in color. 
FAIRFAX /I 'Ua/Uety with Many 
Fruiting Season Covers a Long Period 
A preference over Dorsett by some growers. Our long experience in growing and testing the 
two varieties convinces us that over a period of ten years (due to variations in weather condi¬ 
tions, which sometimes favor one and is against the other) the two varieties would come under the 
wire at about an even pace in profits.
