Text Appearing Before Image:
MIDLAND With Irrigation it has Everything Midland has most of the attributes of a great variety—beauty, size, color, quality, productiveness, firmness and freezing excellence. ^As the name should suggest. Midland is best adapted to the middle states. You can go north if irrigation is available to combat frosts, and you can go a little south if irrigation is available to help get a good fruiting row. Midland berries are very early, ripening at the same time as Premier and Blakemore and slightly after Earlidawn. They have a bright red color which extends clear through the berry. The berries are quite firm and aver- age large in size. When the berries ore first picked they are bright red but they will darken somewhat on holding. For frUit-stands, local trade, home gardens and "Pick Your Own" projects this is not serious but it definitely is a handicap for the wholesale markets. The berries are excellent ^^~ ^v in quality and all ')^-*\^%/:^^ < freezing tests ^•t:l-L'::^%*^-v hove rated it as one of the best. Midland plants are large, healthy and very productive. How- ever, selection of good soil plus care are neces- to get plenty of plants for a good fruit- ing row. Midland has two serious weak- nesses; it does not always make plants freely and is susceptible to frost. Irriga- gation can combat both of these difficulties. In variety trials at Rutgers University, New Brunswick, N. J., for 1961 and 1962 seasons Midland varied from 6,962 quarts per acre to a high of 11,557 quarts per acre.
