TRUE-TO-NAME SWALL FRUIT PLANTS bi 
LUCKY BOY.—Biggest, Sweetest, Most Productive. 
Lucky Boy | 
BIGGEST SWEETEST MOST PRODUCTIVE 
Lucky Boy heads the list of all ever bearing 
strawberries. Another season proves it to be 
head, neck and shoulders above any variety that 
we have ever tested. Last season was the first 
time this grand variety was offered for sale. 
And we have received the very best reports 
from all over the country. If we had our choice 
we would discard every other ever bearing va- 
riety and grow only the Lucky Bov. We gave 
the history of origination in our 1919 catalog, 
and describe it briefly as follows: 
In plant growth it is ideal, plants strong, 
hardy growers, without any blemish of rust at 
any time, makes a good number of strong run- 
ner plants first year which bear some fruit he- 
Zinning about August 15th. Pruitt. is. -a.-rich 
glossy red through and through with a high 
aromatic flavor, not surpassed by any other va- 
viety. Size of fruit—one of the very largest 
berries grown, and considerable larger than any 
other ever hearing strawherry, about twice the 
size of the Superb. When grown in hills which 
is the only right way to grow the ever hearing 
atrawberries, it is unsurpassed for productive- 
ness, beginning to fruit continucusly about Aug- 
ust 15th and continues until hard freezing wea- 
ther sets in. Frost dees but very little damage 
either to blossoms or fruit and it is really at its 
best after the first frost strikes us here in Ma. 
We picked as high as half a quart to the plant 
at one picking in November the past season. 
The fruit is much firmer than any other ever 
bearing we have seen and ean be shipped any 
distance other strawberries can with perfect 
Safety. The great trouble with us this season 
ts we have not a sufficient number of plants to 
supply our customers. ~ Wholesale men from far 
and near have been to look our fields over this 
fall and every one who have seen them growing 
and fruiting has offered us much larger orders 
than we could accept. One N. Y. nurseryman 
begged us for 100,000 plants. We promptly re 
fused notwithstanding he offered us 50 per cent 
more than our retail price, or $75.90 per 1000. 
We have always made it a rule when we have 
found anything good, to offer itt to our own cus- 
tomers first, and the first come will be first 
served as long as our stock lasts. One of our 
customers from N. Y. State who received a small 
shipment of Lucky Boy last spring is so de 
lighted that he mace us an offer to distribute 
our entire stock this season. Of course we had 
to turn his offer down. 
Another customer from 
lows: “Lucky Boy plants 
withstanding the terrible dry spell 
through, all other plants died hefore the rains 
come. We have now every plant growing ane 
loace’l with the largest berries I have ever look- 
ed at, and single plants will measure as large 
as a bushle basket. I kept every runner proon- 
ed off as fast as thev came. I want 100 more 
plants this coming season no matter what they 
cost.”’ 
Another word we will add that our customers 
have not yet had time to find out. The Luckgs 
Boy is not only the CHARM of the ever bearing 
family, but is the CREAM of the all! varieties 
for the Spring -erop. Ripening with the late 
Utah writes as fol- 
have done fine, not- 
they passed 
varieties and continuing until very late in sea- 
son. When Lucky -Bov is grown there is ne 
such thing as crop failure if proper cultivation 
is given. As our eustomers state it is one of 
the very hardiest to stand drougths as it grows 
when all others die, and also is immune from 
frost, and will continue to fruit for manths af- 
ter the first frost comes.
