J. W. JONES & SON, FRANKLIN, VIRGINIA 
MASTODON. As previously noted this looked like a real winner for a 
few years after its introduction, but it has developed the unfortunate tendency 
to “stool up;” that is to say, the young’ plants set in spring will not make 
many runners, so that it is difficult to secure a sufficient number of plants to 
produce any kind of crop. The berries are of a fine size and appearance and 
are fairly firm, and, in a season that is cool and when there is sufficient, but 
not too much rain, a very fair crop of nice berries may be looked for. This 
year we have the best beds w r e have ever grown.
