AROMA 
AROMA. The best thing in its favor is its selling qualities. On 
all the Middle West markets Aroma is always quoted higher than 
average varieties, which in a season of over-production means a lot. 
My own experience leads me to recommend it as a good pollenizer, 
though it has not usually been recommended for that purpose. I have 
found it better than Chesapeake, for it is much more vigorous in 
growth. Certainly no grower can make a mistake in planting Aroma 
as it is a real money-maker in many sections. 
GANDY. One of the leading late kinds and by some still con- 
sidered the best. The only trouble is, that on dry soils or in a very 
dry season it cannot be depended on to bear well. Of extra shipping 
and selling qualities, it is still the leading market berry for late in 
some large berry producing centers. A free plant maker and good 
grower generally, yet sometimes failing in vigor. 
O 
The plants which I ordered arrived Saturday 27th, in fine condition. 
I wish to thank you for your promptness.

O 
The plants arrived in a good condition. The ground is too wet 
just yet to set thtem in. Our Spring is very late. There was snow on 
the ground Saturday morning.
