PRICES OF STRAWBERRIES 



ARE STEADILY ADVANCING 



Strawberries have been making a consistent gain in 

 prices on the Wholesale Market. This means higher 

 prices to the consumer and better prices are ob- 

 tained at the Roadside Markets. Part of the ad- 

 vance in price is due to short crops and the heavy 

 consumer demand. If you have been getting low 

 yields and unsatisfactory returns from your invest- 

 ment, place your order this year for some of our 

 "Select Strain'* stock. Get the yields that you have 

 a right to expect and cash in with a bumper crop, 

 while the demand for this fruit is becoming larger 

 and the prices advancing. You will not be disap- 

 pointed with the results obtained from Townsend's 

 "Select Strain" stock.
