TO STRAWBERRY GROWERS.

A Wonderful New Berry--Originated
in Oregon-The Matteson.
There has been originated in the
great strawberry region about Turn
er and Aumsville a new Seeding va
riety ,propagated by Matteson q Mat
teson, at their RedHill Berry Farm.
The first berries sent to othe CAPITAL
JOURNAL office, Salem, last year
were of this variety, and they were
the most perfect fruit in every re
spect that was shown in this city
The berry is of a deep red clear
through, high flavor, yet sweeter
than most kinds. An experience in
producing the finer sorts of straw
berries, leads the editor of this paper
to say that he does not know of A
SUPERIOR BERRY IN FINENESs OF
QUALITY in every respect to
THE MATTFsoN.
He has secured the sole agency
from the originators and now for the
first time places a limited supply on
the market. Testing the fruit, and
a description of its habits, leads the
editor of the JOURNAL to conclude
that it has exactly those qualities
that must be sought after to produce
fine berries in Oregon. 1t is of hig b
color, great sweetness, rich flavor,
meaty, firm, not watery, no hard
center, and exceedingly palatable.
DESCRIPTION.

berry growers for more than twenty
years and call this their BEST" be.

The bumble.b bee is pelted down
The wet stem of the hollyhock:
And sullenly in spattered brown
The cricket leaps the garden walk.
Within, the baby claps his hands
And crows with rapture strange and vagtl
Without, beneath the rose bush stands
A dripping rooster on one leg.
