The Streamliner strawberry is as ultra-modern as its name implies. 

 Townsend's Select Strain of this comparatively new variety has 

 brought raves from thousands of growers that rate cash returns as 

 the paramount factor by which to judge. Quotations from streams of 

 letters from satisfied customers include such phrases as: ". . probably 

 the very largest of all strawberries"; ". . deliciously sweet and flavor- 

 fuil too"; "'. . solid red color — all the way through"; '. . superb for 

 canning — excellent for freezing"; ". . so firm"; ". . incomparable skin 

 texture"; ". . Productivity.' Say, I'll take all I can get." 

 Streamliner will bear fruit right through to November, 

 and also fruits again the following Spring. Our en- 

 tire acreage of Streamliner is at your disposal. GET 

 YOURS WHILE THEY LAST. 



A Tribute to Better Breeding 



The development of a cross between Gem and 

 Gemzata. Gemzata is a definite triumph in plant 

 breeding. Being, in all probability, the greatest ever- 

 bearing strawberry of all, our recommendation of this 

 variety can only be at its best a gross understate- 

 ment. Our own method of propagation has undoubt- 

 edly brought out the best qualities of this superior 

 berry. The fruit of Gemzata resembles Gem but 

 averages larger, and has a fine, sweet flavor. A vig- 

 orous grower, it is resistant to leaf spot and pro- 

 duces cotistantly throughout the summer months. 

 Gemzata is truly a fine everbearing berry and we 

 recommend it highly.

The most practical solution to year 

 'round profits unquestionably lies 

 with everbearing varieties. Begin- 

 ning as early as just 10 wreeks aiter 

 planting, Townsend's Select Strain 

 Everbearing varieties, Gem, Gem- 

 zata, Streamliner, New Evermore, 

 and Mastodon start making money 

 for you. Amazing? Yes, but profits 

 in the pocket of everbearing-wise 

 growers cannot be denied. After the 

 plants are set in early Spring, they 

 fruit the entire Summer, continue 

 through the Fall, and fruit heavily 

 again in the Spring. Who could ask 

 more? Townsend's everbearers give 

 so much for so little in care and 

 expense. No home garden or 

 mercial grower's acreage is 

 plete without these famous 

 bearers.
