358 Report OF THE HorRTICULTURAL DEPARTMENT OF THE 
Carrie Silvers, Imp. From J. H. Black, Son & Co., Hightstown, 
NV. J. Medium to very large, quite irregular, attractive scarlet; 
flesh good scarlet, good. It retains its size well in later pickings 
and becomes more uniform in shape. 
Corsican, Per. From. Green’s Nursery Co., Rochester, N. Ms 
Large, irregular, light to dark crimson, not juicy; calyx often dull 
ereen, detracting from appearance. As fruited this season it is 
not a promising variety. 
Crescent, Imp. From Birdseye & Son, Stanley, N. Y. This 
variety is too well known to need comment. It was the most 
productive and one of the earliest sorts in our collection this 
season. 
Elma, Imp. From J. H. Black, Son & Co., Hightstown, N. J. 
Above medium, wedge-shaped, rather dull, unattractive scarlet; 
seeds deeply set; flesh rather light-colored at center. Not a 
promising variety. 
Glenwood, Per. From Station beds. Above medium, irregu- 
larly wedge-shaped; attractive, glossy dark scarlet; flesh dark 
scarlet, moderately firm, sweet, good. Fairly productive. Prob- 
ably not firm enough to be a good shipper. 
Ham, Per. From J. H. Black, Son & Co., Hightstown, N. J. 
Large, decidedly wedge-shaped, very dark crimson, firm. Seeds 
quite prominent. Holds size well in late pickings. Too dark in 
color for some markets. 
Hazel, Imp. From J. H. Black, Son & Co., Hightstown, N. J. 
Above medium, decreasing in size later in ripening season, vari- 
able in shape, almost too light a scarlet, rather soft, good. 
Henry, Per. FromJ.0O. Wadsworth, Walcott, N. Y. A chance 
seedling known locally as “Henry.” This is not the variety 
already quite widely known under this name. Medium to large, 
roundish, rather dark attractive scarlet; flesh deep crimson, 
nearly firm, juicy, good to very good. Vigorous, productive. 
Runners abundant. Decreases in size in later pickings. Worthy 
of testing when large size is not a primary consideration. 
Howard, Per. From J. H. Black, Son & Co., Hightstown, N. J. 
Medium to large, conical, rather light scarlet, firm, good. Irreg- 
ular in development of apex, thus often making the fruit appear 
seedy. Vigorous, productive, runners abundant.
