NEW BERRIES
SHOW PROMISE
FOR SUCCESS
Growers Seeking Successor
to Famous Clark Seeding
New Varieties Given
Tests; Markets Shot

Kennewick growers have been on
the lookout for new variety OF
strawberry to take the place of the
Clark Seeding, which at one time
made this valley famous as a straw
berry district A greater yielding var
iety and one that will withstand the
cold winters of the last few years and
the spring frost is what the growers
have been seeking. A number of test
beds and varieties have been tried
out, but until the last few years none
have been found to take the place OF
the Clarks, unless some of the new
varieties being tried out this year
prove successful, according to grow
ers and shippers.
C. Hoadley of East Kennewick, has
a test bed of 100 plants set in the
spring of 1888, which is starting off
very satisfactory they state. The
first picking was Tuesday of this
week, when the patch yielded six
crates of berries. and this morning the
yield was seven crates. The berries
have been on exhibit in the office win
dow since Tuesday. It is berry
somewhat like a Clark, and is said to
be fine canning berry, and so far is
thot to be a satisfactory shipper. Mr..
Hoadley stated. when he ordered
from the Oregon county he ordered
Blakemores and these were substi-
tuted and he was rather Disguised
with the dealer, but from the present
prospect the new variety looked as
tho it would be+a much better deal.
They are named Corvallis.
II. F. Kimpel on the River Road, has
also had on display box of new
variety which looks very promising,
the Red Heart. The Wray Reds have
been standing up good on the markets
this year, and some dealers are be-
ginning to cali for them by name. ac-
cording to- reports. Still another
berry which holds out fine promise is
the Improved Clark, samples of which
are being shown from the A. Schafner
ranch down Finley way.
At the expense Of reduced aspar-
agus cutting. the weather has proven
fine for Strawberries. The market,
however, went off with bang as an
indirect result of the strike on the
water fronts. This caused shutting
down of the cold pack plants on the
coast, with the great influx of berries
going on to the fresh market.
Today the plants are opening up
again, it is reported, and there is
still some hope for the fresh market
for Kennewick stuff to come back.
The picking was stopped at the very
peak of production and growers and
shippers are terribly disappointed in
the sudden cutting off Of the markets
