EARLIEST OF ALL STRAWBERRY VARIETIES 



EARLIDAWN 



EARLINESS — FREEZING QUALITY — HIGH YIELDS 



Ripening five days before Blakemore and Premier. EARLIDAWN is the earliest of all 

 the good, commercial strawberry varieties. It lis a cross ot Midland by Tennessee Shipper 

 which was selected in 1947 and has done exceptionally well ever since. Year after year it has 

 come through with early, large, crops of nice market berries. 



The berries are quite firm with a tough skin. Color is a vivid red only slightly darker 

 than Blakemore which does not become too much darker upon holding. Crops of EARLI- 

 DAWN have been outstanding in all test areas with as much as 58% of the crop being 

 harvested in the first week on this fine new variety. 



EARLIDAWN makes extra large crowned plants but not too many runner plants yet 

 production is still quite high for such an early berry. 



Plants of EARLIDAWN are Virus Free. 



JERSEYBELLE 



Virus Free Vigor And Rich Market Quality 

 Gave Fine Crop And High Prices In 1962 



Jerseybelle has brought the highest pri 

 anywhere since its introduction a few 

 Jersey Experiment Station. Tested as 7 

 to prominence as a highly profitable late 



paid for strawberries 

 ars ago by the New 



Jerseybelle has risen 

 d-season berry for the 



growers of New Jersey and Long Island. The berries are bright 

 orange red, glossy and firm, turning slightly darker upon holding. 

 Jerseybelle has been found best for moderately close and local 

 markets. 



Plants make good growth on rich, moist soils giving good pick- 

 ing beds of large, stocky crowns. However, they are not nearly 

 as vigorous as Sparkle. Catskill or Pocahontas. We recommend 

 Jerseybelle for trial lin most Eastern areas. It has not been 

 found to be very adaptable to Midwestern growing conditions 

 where observed in test plots. 



Our Best Flavored Early Berry Brings Highest Prices, Too 



MIDLAND 



Beauty . . . Size . . . Productivity . . . The Flavor King 



Midland from Virus Free Stocks is now surging back as one of the leaders of early 

 strawberry varieties. Always a favorite as an early berry with outstanding size, beauty, 

 productivity, quality, firmness and freezing ability. Midland can now be profitably grown due 

 to the increased vigor of Virus Free Stocks. Midland will now make good beds of large vigor- 

 ous plants. 



Berries are early, ripening with Premier and Blakemore, and as productive as either, 

 averaging somewhat larger in size. The flavor compares favorably wiith Fairfax, known 

 generally as our highest quality berry. Freezing tests show Midland to be one of the best 

 either for commercial or home use. We suggest you try this fine variety this year and see 

 if you don't agree that it is most outstanding.
