To Summarize 
EARLY 
PREMIER 
FAIRFAX 
DORSETT 
BLAKEMORE 
NORTHSTAR 
FAIRMORE 
Will have to be placed at the head of the list. No kind so 
widely adapted. Almost frost proof. Its weakness: If too 
warm and wet at picking season does not carry well. 
Nothing equals it in quality or appearance when first pick¬ 
ed. Vigoious grower. BUT, it turns dark soon after pick¬ 
ing. Persuade your customers that it is not spoiled. 
Since its introduction, the best in the Maryland—Virginia 
area.Handsome and good to taste. Grows well. Blooms 
early and frost damages sometimes severe. Subject to 
“summer scorch.” Spring foliage healthy. 
For below Mason Dixon Line it is good. Keep thin. 
Recommended for trial. Northstar in Middle Atlantic area. 
In the South. 
MIDSEASON 
CATSKILL 
BIG JOE 
ABERDEEN 
Heads midseason list by every right. Large size and a 
tremendous cropper. Sells with the very best. Follows 
Premier, Dorsett, Fairfax. Sometimes attacked by “sum¬ 
mer scorch.” 
Well known. Has passed its peak. 
A tremenduous cropper. Too soft for any but near market. 
LATE 
GANDY Still the best late. Rusts at picking time in most locali¬ 
ties. Plant only on rich soil. Keep thin. 
CHESAPEAKE Have both seen their day. Too little vigor in plants. 
LUPTON Often turn “sick” when fruit ripens. 
EVERBEARING 
GEM The best by long odds. Use rich soil. Keep summer 
blooms off for best Fall crop. Must have plently of mois¬ 
ture. 
MASTODON An oldtimer.Still good on occasion. Strong plants but in¬ 
clined to “stool up” and not make a bed. On rich soil may 
still be planted with confidence. No good in the South.
