8 GEORGE RENNIE FARM, ANDOVER, MASS. 
CATSKILL (Per.) Midseason 
The Catskill is a midseason berry; ripens about 
a week after the Howard 17. A cross of the Mar- 
shall and. Howard 17, the plants are large, very 
vigorous and yield very heavy crops. The berries 
are very large, firm, bright red in color, glossy and 
attractive, and good quality. The bright, shiny red 
berries make an attractive package in the basket 
or in the crate. The berries are so large they should 
be sold in trays, rather than in crates. On rich land 
the Catskill makes too many plants and should not 
be allowed to set too many as we find the largest 
and finest berries are always where plants are 
fairly wide apart. The Catskill keeps good size to 
the last picking and to be at its best should have 
fairly heavy and rich land. Anyone growing for 
market cannot go wrong in planting Howard 17 for 
early and Catskill for midseason to late. The ber- 
ries are produced on strong stems that keep the 
berries up off the ground. They dry off after heavy 
rain and you get very few rotten berries. Not quite 
as heavy a cropper as the Howard 17. The Catskill 
is getting to be better known now. Every year we 
increase our planting of Catskill. Plant the Howard 
17 on the light to medium land and the Catskill 
on the heavy land.
