Excerpt from Our Anniversary Catalog, 1925 Progressive Everbearing (per.) This variety is very productive and a sure cropper every season. If the blossoms happen to get killed by the late frosts in the Spring, the plants will throw up new fruiting stems, and produce a full crop just the same as if noth ing had happened.

Fruit is medium in size, and in shape similar to the Dunlap. Firm of good quality and color. The Currant, although a small fruit, is very easily raised.
