How to Secure these 



Wonderful Plants— Free! 



The wonderful Progressive Everbearing Strawberry Plants are becoming immense- 

 ly popular. No wonder! You set them out in May and enjoy fine berries during 

 the following summer and fall. No long wait for this crop! Progressive Ever- 

 bearing Strawberries take the risk out of Strawberry growing, too. The plants 

 are much hardier than the common varieties. Ordinary spring frosts will not hurt 

 them. Even if a heavy freeze does kill the early spring bloom, in 30 days they 

 will bloom again. 



Thru a special contract with a grower of National reputation, The Farming Busi- 

 ness is able to furnish to you FEEE these wonderful 



Progressive 



Evarbearing 

 Strawberry 



Plants 



or, if you prefer. Fall-bearing Strawberry Seeds — the true hybridized sort, and also 

 plants of the ever-popular Chesapeake variety. All strains are pure. The Pro- 

 gressive plants will actually grow and fruit as described. A test patch of a square 

 rod was set in May, 1914. Just 83 days after, the owner began gathering a fine 

 crop, which continued till late October, aggregating 74% quarts. The great Ches- 

 apeake variety needs no introduction. The Fall-bearing Seeds afford a most inter- 

 esting way to grow Strawberries. These plants and seeds are scarce this year, and 

 prices will be high, where they are obtainable at all. Act now and insure yours.
