VIRGINIA STRAWBERRIES,
They Will Be Late and Probably
Inferior This Season.

1t would seem that the lovers of the
Juicy strawberry Will have to depend
this year almost entirely upon the
berry patches in the far South.
The reports from ali parts of this
State are to the effect that the long
cold spell and the late frosts have
played havoc with strawberries of the
Virginia variety. There will not be
anything like n half crop. and sucn
as are finally gathered will be late
and probably of inferior quality.
The far South gathers It's straw
berries earlier than do the ralsers in
Virginia. but they never get as good
and as juicy fruit.
