Some Old Some New 
‘py . a 
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 vart 
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 grewer 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. 
Fairfax One of the older kinds. Grows few plants in most locations. 
Fine quality, in fact unequaled in flavor. It does not seem 
to be doing as well for us, as it did in past years. Flants large and well root- 
ed. Early and sells well. 
- 1 lk This is a cross between Chesapeake end Fairfax and 
difpea € 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. 
Midlan A fine flavored berry. Fairly productive. Fair plant maker. 
Berries are large and glossy. Worth a trial.
