Valiant — Coming between Earliana types and Marglobe 
and Rutgers, Valiant will yield a fine crop averaging 7 oz. 
per fruit where it can mature most of its crop before severe 
heat comes in July. It has done wonderfully well in New 
Jersey. Smooth, heavy, solid and of fine quality. Owing 
to its sparse vine growth, it is subject to sunburn in sections 
where early maturity is not possible.
