VERBEARING STRAWBERRI 



World's 

 Champion. 



THE BIG QUICK MONEY CROP 



EVERBEARIXG STRAWBERRIES have now taken their place as 

 a quick money making crop throujrhout the country for the 

 srrowers who have been in doubt as to their ability in making 

 the Everbearing Strawberries pay. This doubt has been overcome 

 with the introduction of such varieties as the Mastodon and Lucky 

 Strike Everbearing. Our customers are reporting from foiir to twelve 

 hundred dollars on a small investment, while others advise us that 

 they sell all their crop right at the patch for 50 to 60 cents a quart 

 throughout the season. Everbearing strawberries are ready for 

 picking within two months after setting, and therefore is a good 

 crop for COMBIXATIOX PLANTINGS. 



As our customers state when setting a large acreage to the stand- 

 ard spring fruiting varieties: with a part of the space devoted to 

 the Everbearing they pay all expenses of cultivating the Spring crop 

 with a good profit left over, in this way financing the main crop 

 with the Everbearing, giving them a much larger acreage of Straw- 

 berries with little outlay in cash. 



FOR THE HOME GARDEN. We cannot really say that a 

 Garden is complete unless there are Everbearing Strawberries in it, 

 that you may have the pleasure of picking these large delicious ber- 

 ries fresh from the vines all during the summer and fall months. 

 A small investment in Everbearing will bring you big dividends in 

 the pleasure of having this great fruit when it is at its best, while thousands of our customers are set- 

 ting enough for their home use and having surplus berries to sell locally at a good price, where the 

 demand always exceeds the supply. 



T UriCY STRTKF —Lucky Strike 

 L.\J\^rs.l OIKIKIL Everbearing heads 



the list of all Everbearing Strawberries as to 

 quality. For this reason it is called the Aristo- 

 crat of the everbearing family. 



Lucky Strike is a good strong grower on most 

 soils. Fruit will compare favorably in size to 

 Mastodon. Does not produce quite as much of 

 it, but every berry is a Gem. It fruits its first 

 crop early in the summer after plants are set, 

 takes a rest spell for a month, and puts on new 

 growth and fruits a heavy crop in the late fall, 

 and again in the early spring when the .Tune 

 varieties are fruiting, and still another late crop 

 the same season.

a great many growers, and is espe<'ially valu- 

 able as a home garden variety. It is a heavy 

 producer of medium-sized berries of the very 

 best eating quality, too well known to need a 

 lengthy description. 



PROGRESSIVE — Was the first real everbearing 

 strawberry, and for a long time was highl.v ad- 

 vertised and spoken of. Since the introduction 

 of such varieties as Lucky Strike and Mastodon 

 it is not so largely planted. Fruit is small to 

 medium size, of excellent quality. Recommend- 

 ed only for home use at this time. It is a good 

 strong grower and produces a good quality of 

 berries on good rich moist garden soil. 



MASTODON — *^"® P^ *^^ largest everbearings ever introduced. Enormous yielder of rich 

 . red fruit. The Mastodon has proven its great value as a Monev Making Ever- 

 bearing, and we recommend it as one of the best. For full information on Mastodon, see pp. 16=17.
