A good representation of Blakemore. One of the good Southerners. 
Some Old Some New 
Ri Joe For a long time one of the best midseason kinds. Losing 
g favor with growers we ceased to offer it. There now seems 
to be a newly developed demand for it, so we are again growing it. 
Blakemore For all areas of the South unquestionably the best. 
It is a most vigorous grower, very firm, beautiful in 
appearance and is most productive. The quality of the fruit is quite tart 
when it first turns red, but if allowed to fully ripen it is sweet and fine. 
Dorsett If frost did not so often get Dorsett we feel that it would 
be much more largely planted. The fruit is fine to the 
taste, very handsome with a large green cap, reasonably firm and will 
always sell. For us it is a much more vigorous grower than it was ten 
years ago. If you have protected areas in which to plant it, we recommend 
Dorsett. It ripens just ahead of Premier. 
F 1 lk This is a cross between Chesapeake and Fairfax and 
airfped € has been developed by the U. S. Dept. of Agriculture. 
It is a very strong grower, making quite enough plants for fine picking bed. 
It ripens later than Fairfax and is of delicious quality. The Dept. of Agri- 
culture says “Fairpeake is a sweet, high flavored general market variety of 
great beauty.” Try a few. It looks good. 
M assey A later ripening shipping berry for the south and middle 
berry belt. It makes plants very freely and grows vigor- 
ously. Berries large and firm. Quality good.
