  The 
  large 
  cultivated 
  blueberry 
  has 
  unlimited 
  possi- 
  

   bilities 
  as 
  a 
  fresh 
  fruit, 
  a 
  canned 
  or 
  frozen 
  product, 
  or 
  

   for 
  pure 
  ornamentation. 
  The 
  plants 
  should 
  hare 
  a 
  

   place 
  in 
  every 
  farm 
  or 
  home 
  garden 
  lot. 
  

  

  Blueberries 
  require 
  an 
  acid 
  soil 
  containing 
  an 
  

   abundance 
  of 
  organic 
  material. 
  They 
  need 
  a 
  good 
  

   supply 
  of 
  soil 
  moisture, 
  with 
  good 
  drainage. 
  Most 
  

   good 
  gardeners 
  will 
  mulch 
  their 
  plants 
  rather 
  than 
  

   cidtivale 
  them, 
  since 
  the 
  plants 
  are 
  shallow 
  rooted 
  and 
  

   do 
  not 
  tolerate 
  close 
  working. 
  

  

  Good 
  blueberry 
  soil 
  can 
  be 
  created 
  by 
  use 
  of 
  quan- 
  

   tities 
  of 
  compost 
  or 
  other 
  organic 
  material, 
  worked 
  

   into 
  the 
  surface 
  of 
  the 
  soil. 
  Use 
  aluminum 
  sulphate 
  

   to 
  bring 
  the 
  pH 
  level 
  down 
  to 
  an 
  optimum 
  5 
  to 
  6 
  range. 
  

  

  Blueberries 
  need 
  pollination, 
  and 
  at 
  least 
  two 
  va- 
  

   rieties 
  should 
  be 
  planted.
