Enjoy Strawberries? Why Not Grow 
Them Yourself? 
Yes, you can do it. Lots of tolks are surprised every year to find 
how easy it is. Some start with a little bed to supply berries for home 
use; others begin growing them to sell. The first mentioned class get 
finer berries for the table and more of them than they ever had before. 
The others find out what a big demand there is for the big fresh luc- 
ious berries, and how easy it is to make big money when you have 
plenty of the big fresh frst class fruit. 
You should certainly be in one of the classes. Townsend will help 
you all he can. He will start you right any way if you will let him. 
Its not the man that grows the largest field of berries that makes the 
most money all the time. No; its the man that plants the proper kind 
of plants and gives them proper attention. Plants out just what can 
be handled to advantage and gets the top price for his high class fruit.
