ORIGINATED several years ago by the U. S. 

 Department of Agriculture, this hardy strain 

 has achieved remarkable popularity in states 

 south of the Mason-Dixon line and as far north 

 as Pennsylvania and the Ohio Valley. 

 For an early, solid production that will be both econ- 

 omical and profitable, the Blakemore should be your 

 outstanding choice. It is so sturdy that it will with- 

 stand heavy rains with small loss of fruit, so en- 

 durant that heavy plant growth can be accomplished 

 in practically any soil, and vigorous enough to with- 

 stand more abuse and neglect in growth, picking or 

 shipping than any other variety. 



The fact that the new yellow resistant Blakemore is 

 held in high esteem is unquestionable. The sensation- 

 al evidence is in the survey that revealed twice as 



many acres are planted in Blakemore than any other 

 variety. As a matter of fact, 259c of all commercial 

 strawberry acreages are planted in Blakemore. 



As a scientific cross between Premier and Townsend's 

 Missionary, its sizing is from medium to large fruit. 

 Its yield is abundant. The fact that 80^ of its crop 

 is produced one week after the first picking makes it 

 invaluable to producers of large quantities for the 

 extra-early market. 



The perfect commercial berry, it's tops in choice by 

 canners and preservers. Because of it's firmness. 

 Blakemore can withstand long distance hauls and 

 maintain its robust appearance.

As is the case in any other business where large quantities 

 of diversified types (or varieties) of products arc concerned, 

 naturally a slight overage or surplus is realized. Since our 

 business policy does not allow us to carry plants that have 

 already been dug over to the next day, we must dispose of this 

 surplus. We, therefore, are in a position to make this potential 

 loss of ours your gain. The grower who is not especially 

 particular about varieties can buy these plants at a sens.uion.il 

 and tremendous saving. Every plant is freshly dug. labeled, and 

 true to name. Because of these low prices, we regret that we 

 cannot assume any responsibility for variety selection — please do 

 not ask for particular varieties.
