E. W. TOWNSEND & SON— SQUARE DEAL NURSERY 



LUCKY STRIKE 



This is one of the finest ever-bearers for the Northern states. 

 Is a strong healthy grower; makes long well rooted plants that 

 are stalky in appearance and are able to hold up the wonderful 

 load of bright red lucious berries which it abundantly producers. 

 Some of our customers claim that Lucky Strike is the best of the 

 ever-bearing, perferring it to the Lucky Boy or Progressive. We 

 have a fine stock of plants again this season and have reuced our 

 price to $25.00 per 1000, or $5.00 per 100. We introduced Lucky 

 Strike season 1918 at $1.00 each and it has given wonderful ac- 

 count of itself in all the Northern states, from Maryland up. Do 

 not fail to order a few Lucky Strike. Only a dozen will give you 

 a show to test its merits. 



LUCKY BOY (Per) 



We have never been able to supply the demand for Lucky 

 Boy plants. At the same time we have cut our price half for 

 this season in 1000 lots. When we introduced Lucky Boy we gave 

 it this description: BIGGER, SWEETER AND MORE PRODUC- 

 TIVE than any other ever-bearing strawberry. Ninety-nine per 

 cent, of our customers who have grown it, and it has been sent to 

 every State in the Union, will back this statement. Plant in good 

 rich soil, grow in hill system, and you will have a gold mine. 

 Both as an ever-bearer and a Spring cropper. 



PROGRESSIVE (Per) 



Is the universal ever-bearer, and is now known the country 

 over and an unfaltering producer of the highest quality fruit. 

 Begins to ripen early in season and will continue to fruit all the 

 summer. Fruit medium to small and good quality for table use, 



SUPERB (Per) 



This was considered the largest of the ever-bearing strawber- 

 ries until Lucky Boy was produced. In some sections it is a great 

 favorite. Not a good producer in the fall in the states South of 

 Delaware. We have a very fine stock of Superb plants. 



For many years I have been sending to 

 Townsend for plants. He has never failed 

 to send me satisfactory plants. I have 

 recommended hundreds of berry growers 

 from this section to you and all have been 

 well pleased. Wish you could see my 

 patch now. I am enclosing you an order 

 for 1,500 plants for my neighbor. 



J. R. Conner (Fla.). 



The two bundles of Lucky Boy plants 

 arrived in fine condition. I appreciate 

 your liberal count and good plants. 



J. A. M. (N. J.). 



Received plants in fine order and they 

 are growing fine. 



W. D. K. (Lansdale, Pa.). 



I have followed your ihstructions fo'- 

 the last six years in growing berrie', and 

 have never made a failure. Strawberry 

 growing has brought me out of debt. I 

 used to be in the Dairy Business but have 

 side tracked that for strawberry growing. 

 This is the seventh order to you for plants. 

 With best wishes to you and the sons.

 Gentlemen: — The plants came Saturday 

 and they were in perfect condition. They 

 looked like they had just been taken out 

 of the ground. Foliage was scarcely wilt-
