Catskil | introduced by the New York Agric. 
Experiment Station and well stands at the top as 
a late midseason variety of large size berries, 
heavy yields and a sure cropper. 
. A New Early Red-Stele Resistant 
; Fairland Strawberry variety introduced by 
the U. S. Department of Agriculture and the Uni- 
versity of Maryland. Fairland ripens about four 
days after Premier. The fruit is large, light bright 
red and produces just as heavy as does Premier 
and has proven commercially resistant to the 
Red-Stele root disease here in Ohio and hence 
may be planted in infected soils where Catskill 
and Premier die out. Fairland is widely adapted 
to most soil types and the fruit is reeommended 
particularly for local market. 
Premier (PER.) The Premier is one of the most 
Le popular varieties that we offer and 
it well deserves all the praise that can be given it. 
This new variety ripens after Cats- 
Spa rkle kill, thus extending the strawberry 
season with quality berries to the last. It has all 
of those good characters you want ina variety for 
table and culinary use, so it ranks “‘Tops”’ for 
home planting. The berries are good medium size, 
most attractive, slightly dark red in color, and 
with a glossy finish almost like they were var- 
nished. Sparkle has much the quality of Fairfax 
(one of its parents) and is an excellent freezing 
variety, ranking above most others for this pur- 
pose. The plants are vigorous and make an abun- 
dance of runners.

The New Robinson is an early mid-season berry 
following Premier by about 5-7 days. Here isa 
new variety originating in the commercial fruit- 
ing section of Michigan that is gaining favor by 
leaps and bounds for both home and market. This 
popularity is well deserved because of its wide 
adaptability and habit of making a better plant 
row than Premier, because of its fruitfulness (al- 
most half again as many as other standard varie- 
ties), and its very large attractive berries—which, 
of course, bring top prices on the market. One 
large grower has acclaimed, ‘“‘These (Robinson) 
berries in all respects are the finest we have had 
in the past twenty years.” 
ROBINSON is a berry that rates as “Tops” in 
large size, true bright red Strawberry color, and as 
fine quality berry as you have ever tasted. 
M New very late berry. Giant in 
Late Giant soe" Tare Giant fills a definite 
need for a really good late-ripening strawberry. 
Dark red all the way through and honey sweet 
with a distinct “tang” of strawberry. Late Giant 
comes in bearing around 10 days after Premier. 
Late Giant is a very vigorous grower and pro- 
duces a better fruiting row than most other late 
varieties. You will be more than pleased with the 
fruits you get from this new variety. 
NEW ROBINSON is making an excellent record in Home and Commercial Plantings.
