Bountiful Ridge Strawberry Plants 



REGISTERED . . . ESSENTIALLY VIRUS FREE 



Over 80 Years Experience in Producing and Distributing 



Strawberry Plants by the Kemp family is Your 



Assurance of Quality 



Plants Of Known Origin — All planting stocks of Registered kinds have come from indexed sourc- 

 es at Beltsville, Md. These plants have been increased under screen and in isolated fields 

 in order to continue their improved strains. We have perpetuated Non-Virus Free varieties 

 by careful selection of the most prolific and strongest plants from our plantings for use as 

 planting stock. Every precaution is taken to be sure that high bearing strains of Bountiful 

 Ridge Strawberry plants are continued. 



Free Of Disease — Bountiful Ridge Strawberry Plants are examined several times throughout the 

 growing season by ourselves and competent inspectors to be sure that they are free of in- 

 jurious diseases and insects. Rigid dusting, spraying, and fumigating programs costing 

 hundreds of dollars per acre are maintained in order to provide our customers with the best 

 possible planting stock. 



True-To-Name — The utmost care is used throughout all of our strawberry operations (planting, 

 growing, digging, grading, storing, and shipping) to reduce the chance of mixtures in all 

 strawberry varieties. We rogue our fields of any "suspicious plants" during the growing 

 season to further eliminate possible mixtures. Some plants of each variety are fruited 

 each year to give another check on their Trueness-To-Name. Each bundle is labeled for 

 easy identification. 



Sure To Grow — Bountiful Ridge Plants are dug at the proper time (not too early — not too late) 

 and stored carefully in our own closely regulated humidified cold storage until shipping 

 time. They stay plump, moist, and full of stored vigor (heavy applications of special fer- 

 tilizers, trace elements, and other plant foods virtually "stuff" the plants with vitality) neces- 

 sary for quick starts and beautiful growth. Given good care, Bountiful Ridge Plants are 

 sure to please.

 grown from Virus Free Foundation Stocks indexed by the TJ.S.D.A. in Beltsville. Md. They have been dusted 12 to 

 14 times with Parathion to control the vector of the virus diseases, fumigated twice with Neraagon for the control of 

 nematodes, grown in well isolated areas away from fields of ordinary plants and nursery fields of varieties not yet 

 available from virus free stock. 



All of our plants have been abundantly fed with special fertilizer containing a minor element mix. Chlor- 

 dane has also been added for the control of cut worms, ants and grubs which tend to make the plants less thrifty if 

 allowed to go unchecked. Periodical checks have been made of planting stocks and nursery fields by competent in- 

 spectors to Ik* sun thai these plants are free of the Dangerous Red Stele Kent Rot and other injurious diseases. 

 The plants listed in this catalog as Registered (Essentially Yiru^ Free) have been grown according to these specifi-
