Mid-Season 
CATSKILL—Catskill has truly leaped into prominence for, in the 
short time since its introduction by the N. Y. Experiment Station, it has 
become a leading mid-season variety over a wide area in the northern 
half of the country. This deserved popularity comes from its big yields 
of very large, good quality, bright red, firm berries which, while irregu- 
Jar in shape, are nevertheless, attractive in the basket. (Catskill is frost 
resistant and a sure cropper and makes a good stand of healthy. plants, 
One of the highest yielding and largest sized berries we have grown. 
CULVER—A healthy, vigorous growing, heavy yielding variety 
producing beautiful large, uniformly conic shaped berries which are 
dark red to the center. One of the most attractive strawberries. Some- 
what tart but of good quality. Highly regarded as a freezing or canning 
berry, With the exception of Catskill, Culver is probably the best of the 
varieties developed by the N. Y. Experiment Station. 
DRESDEN—Recently introduced by the N. Y. Experiment Sta- 
tion, Dresden is worthy of trial by all berry growers. In two years’ trial 
we found the berries to be very large and the yields enormous, fully 
equalling Catskill in both respects. 'The berries are fair quality, a 
little soft, conic in shape, smooth and uniform and of a medium red 
color. The plant’s characteristics are of the best, being large, healthy 
and making a good stand, 
NORTHSTAR—Northstar is a seedling of Premier and Red 
Heart. The berries are large, firm and of an attractive bright red color. 
In quality Northstar is very good and has a pleasing flavor and aroma 
distinctly its own. It takes a moderate number of plants which for size 
and vigor are the best we have ever seen. ‘With us yields are a little 
‘light. 
Late 
ABERDEEN—A vigorous growing, heavy producing variety that 
is more resistant to heavier wet soils than most varieties. Berries 
large, light red and very attractive. Moderately firm and of fair quality. 
The Aberdeen has been increasing in popularity. 
BLISS—A berry of supreme quality, being excelled only by Fair- 
fax among the berries we have grown. A good yielder of good-sized, 
uniform, well-shaped, bright red berries appealing to the eye. Worthy 
of trial for either commercial or home use. Bliss is one of the best 
drouth resistant varieties, 
CHESAPHKAKE—Long grown as a fancy late berry; fine quality. 
Large in size and a pleasing glossy red color. Very firm and a good 
shipper. Makes a limited number of strong, stocky plants. Requires a 
rich moist soil for maximum performance.
