elongated, rather dull, light to medium scarlet. Flesh of fair color, 
medium to firm, rather acid, not high in flavor, no more than good 
in quality. Resembles Prof. Fisher in general appearance but is 
earlier. A rather showy late variety, not of highest flavor or 
quality. 
New Globe.—(W. F. Allen, Salisbury, Md.) Perfect. Plants 
medium in number and vigor, susceptible to attacks of leaf blight, 
very productive. Leaves medium to above in size, rather dark 
green; leaf stems of average length, thick. Fruit stems medium to 
long, thick, often double, somewhat erect. Blooms and ripens in 
midseason, picks medium easily. Calyx large to medium, often 
leafy, discolored, flat. Seeds sunken. Fruit large to below medium, 
decreasing as the season advances, very irregular in shape averaging 
roundish conic, surface unusually roughened and furrowed, unat- 
tractive dull medium scarlet. Flesh rather light, firm, considerable 
acid, not high in flavor, fair in quality. Coarse and unattractive in 
general appearance. The fruit-bud clusters before opening are con- 
spicuous, showing above the foliage. 
New Home.—(W. F. Allen, Salisbury, Md.) Perfect. Plants 
rather few, medium in vigor, healthy, unproductive. Leaves me-

Seeds raised, terminating in short dark hairs which seem character-

son advances, roundish conic, often depressed at apex, attractive 
light scarlet, some berries dark scarlet. Flesh fairly good color, 
very firm, mildly acid, fair in quality. Attractive in shape and 
color, a good shipper but deficient in size in late pickings. Plants 
set closer than most varieties.
