 spring fruit in 10 weeks 



JUST think of setting plants this spring and picking big, luscioi 

 strawberries within 10 weeks after setting! And what's more, the: 

 will be plenty of them until snow flies or hard, freezing weather stops the 

 growth. This is no novelty, but clear fact. These berries are being plantf 

 throughout the country on a large commercial scale by market gardeners ar. 

 thousands of home gardeners. Now is the time for you to try them so you me 

 gain a vast amount of pleasure and profit from a tiny outlay. Order any of tr. 

 varieties listed on the next page. They are the best of the Fallbearing list, an 

 will provide a fine crop this summer and fall, and next spring too, after sel 

 ting, fruiting about the same time as our Early to Midseason varieties.

FALLBEARING straw- 

 berries require very 

 little space for growing. Just 

 space plants 12 inches apart in 

 rows 18 inches wide and you will 

 be pleasantly surprised with the 

 amount of berries that can be 

 picked from one of our garden 

 collections. The ladies are plant- 

 ing Fallbearing berries in their 

 gardens instead of short crop 

 vegetables, and are gaining both 

 pleasure and profit from their 

 fruit. After a small investment, 

 your family will enjoy these 

 fresh, delicious berries six months 

 in the year. Many customers have 

 written us that they had more 

 than they could use, and con- 

 sequently made quite a tidy sum 

 by selling them to neighbors and 

 local stores.
