TOWNSEND'S FALL STRAWBERRIES 



We are starting thousands of our customers to bigger fall crops and bigger profits by 

 setting our selected Everbearing plants and growing them the TOWNSEND'S way 



LUCKYSTRIK Has always been our favorite 

 Everbearing strawberry. There are none that can 

 touch it in quality. For this reason, one of our 

 customers named it the Aristocrat of the Everbear- 

 ing family. Fruit is bright red, firmer than any 

 other fall bearing variety, with a quality all its 

 own. Produces heavily early in July from plants 

 set in the Spring, takes a couple weeks rest and 

 then continues producing heavy crops until Novem- 

 ber. It is also one of the best Spring crop varieties 

 bringing top prices. We recommend Luckystrik 

 Everbearing for its quality of fruit, size and beauty, 

 as well as productiveness. 



MASTODON Is one of the largest of Everbearing 

 Strawberries. Attractive in size and color with a 

 nice large green cap, bringing top prices on the 

 Fall Market. It is also noted for producing an 

 abundance of fruit again during the early summer 

 harvest along with other June fruiting varieties. 

 This variety should be grown by all who are inter- 

 ested in Everbearing Strawberries. A roadside Mar- 

 ket offering this attractive variety during the fall 

 will profit in the Mastodon. Our customers, who 

 have grown Mastodon the Townsend way are 

 increasing their plantings each year, being con- 



vinced of the greater profits in our Selected Strain 

 Mastodon Plants. 



ALDRICH The new everbearing from New Eng- 

 land is springing into popularity in leaps and 

 bounds. Aldrich is a berry of large size, bright 

 rich red color, and a heavy producer, — the plants 

 being clean, healthy and vigorous while fruiting. 

 We certainly recommend giving Aldrich a fair trial, 

 as we believe that it will prove to be a successful 

 berry for the Northern States. Our supply of plants 

 of this variety is limited, would advise placing your 

 order as early as possible. 



CHAMPION Since the introduction of such varie- 

 ties as Luckystrik and Mastodon, Champion is 

 not largely planted, as fruit is small to medium in 

 size, although of excellent quality. Recommended 

 only for home use, where quality is more important 

 than the size of the fruit. 



BERRI -SUPREME A new everbearing of recent in- 

 troduction. In our trial grounds the past two years 

 the fruit has been of extra fine quality and of good 

 size, not as productive with us as the Luckystrik 

 or Mastodon. Reports from the middle west indi- 

 cate that it is more productive than in the east. 

 We have only a limited supply of plants to offer.

writes: 



Find enclosed $15.00; please ship me 



another 1000 Mastodon plants. From 



2900 of your plants set I picked 3600 



quarts. I do not believe that 



this record has been beaten in 



this State.

Enclose photo of my Grand- 

 son holding a Mastodon Straw- 

 berry plant which by actual 

 count has 84 berries at one time. 

 We had many others that had 

 from 40 to 60 berries. We have 

 been picking fancy berries all thru 

 the dry spell, having no rain for five 

 weeks. The hill system surely is the 

 way to grow Everbearing.
