New YorK AGRICULTURAL EXPERIMENT STATION. 361 
New York, Per. From W. F. Allen, Salisbury, Md. Below 
medium to jiarge, wedge-shaped, light to dark scarlet. Very un- 
productive. The fruiting period was short this year. 
Nina, Per. From J. H. Black, Son & Co., Hightstown, N. J. 
Medium to large, irregular, attractive scarlet. Not productive; 
severely injured by leaf blight. The hull has a tendency to pull 
off easily and on this account the fruit would not keep well. 
Oliver, Per. From J. H. Black, Son & Co., Hightstown, N. J. 
Varies from small to large, berries with hard green tips, conical, 
dark searlet, very unpreductive. Blossoms were seriously in- 
jured by frost. 
Prof. Fisher, Per. From J. H. Black, Son & Co., Hightstown, 
N. J.. Above medium to very large, usually wedge-shaped but 
not uniform, attractive scarlet, flesh good color, good. Retains 
its size as the ripening season advances. Vigorous, moderately 
productive; runners very few. On account of this last fact this 
variety should be planted closer than most others. 
Reba, Imp. From J. H. Black, Son & Co., Hightstown, N. J. 
Above medium to large, bluntly wedge-shaped, attractive scarlet. 
Very unproductive and too soft to ship far.

dark scarlet, good. Moderately productive. Retains size well 
in iater pickings. The color is rather too dull and dark to be 
attractive.

irregularly heart-shaped, crimson, rather firm, moderately juicy, 
subacid, good. Vigorous, very productive, runners numerous. 
Retains its size as the ripening season advances and is attractive 
in appearance. Promising. 
Riehl No. 27, Per. From Station beds. Medium to very large, 
roundish, usually very dark and often dull scarlet, soft, good. 
Productive. Does not retain size in later pickings. 
Riehl No. 28, Per. From Station beds. Above medium to very 
large, irregularly conical, attractive scarlet, flesh good scarlet,
