Why Tingle's Plants Succeed 



Our Strawberry plants are taken from young beds, fresh dug before ship- 

 ment, plants are well-rooted and not dug from old or run-down beds. These 

 plants are from beds that have never borne a crop and will bring you best 

 results. In the fall our ground is plowed to' a good depth and then we broad- 

 cast stable manure on top of the plowed ground, then let it stay this way until 

 spring, we then thoroughly pulverize the soil, and at the same time mixing the 

 manure with the soil by harrowing. After the plants are set and begin to 

 make runners we fertilize them jvith commercial fertilizers, this is repeated 

 late in the summer. The deep plowing with an abundance of plant-food given 

 the plants causes them to make a splendid growth with lots of long fibrous 

 roots. You need these kind of plants and it will pay you to get them. Which 

 kind of plants had you rather have, plants that have been carefully grown and 

 that are full of life, which will produce big crops or plants that have not been 

 fertilized — plants that have been grown only for quantity without a thought 

 of quality? If you want the kind that will make you a successful berry grow- 

 er and that will produce you the largest and best crops, plant Tingle's full of 

 life plants — they succeed.
