New Lower Prices On 

 MASTODON Plants 



THREE FULL CROPS IN 18 MONTHS 

 Here Is How They Do It 



Set plants in early spring — pick first 

 crop Augrvist to late November. Pick sec- 

 ond crop the following June. Pick third 

 crop August to -n-inter. 



Plant on ordinary good rich soil and 

 give the same cultivation as to ordinary 

 strawberries. 



As a Spring Berry 

 MASTODON 



PRODUCES BIGGER JUNE CROPS 

 THAN MOST COMMON VARIETIES 



Mastodon begins to fruit a few days 

 later than Premier. The fruit is just as 

 large in spring as it is in the summer and 

 fall. The berries are colored all over a 

 beautiful deep red — look like they have all 

 been varnished, and are firm enough to 

 ship to any distant market. 



They will produce as many berries on 

 the spring crop as the very best standard 

 varieties, and will bring as much money. 



If you have never grown these berries 

 PLANT MASTODON THIS TIME AND 

 BE CONVINCED that it will do all we 

 and many others claim for it. If we did 

 not believe in it we certainly would not 

 be advertising and growing it as we are, 

 and if it were not just as good for others 

 as it is for us, we would not be getting 

 the letters in every mail making state- 

 ments stronger than anything we have 

 ever said. 



PRICES LOWER — QUALITY BETTER 



With good growing showers all summer 

 and the use of plenty plant food we have 

 been able to cut the price, and at the same 

 time give more value in every plant as it 

 would be almost impossible to put more 

 real plant value into a crop of plants than 

 we have done this time.

MASTODOX FINEST FIiANTS EVER SAW 

 AND PERSISTENT BIiOOiyiERS 



Coolville, Ohio, May 28, 1928. 



Dear Sirs: — This is to inform you that the 2100 Mastodon 

 plants came O.K. April 1st and were the finest plants I ever 

 saw. I had them set out April 6 and 7, and lost only four 

 plants out of the lot, and you sent me over a hundred extra. 



"We are not used to such fine treatment, and assure you we 

 will remember you to our friends, and when we want more 

 plants Townsend will get the order. 



P. S. — I never saw such blooming as these plants are doing. 

 I have cut the blossoms off three times already, and they are 

 still blooming. Looks like I am going to have lots of berries. 



Bert Baldwin.
