WHY NOT PLANT RIGHT NOW TO GATHER FRUIT SIXTY DAYS HENCE? 



FALL-BEARING 

 STRAWBERRIES 



The fall-bearing or more properly styled "Ever- 

 bearing" Strawberries are interesting and surely 

 have decided merit. Fortunately nearly all of them 

 are excellent in quality and give a heavy yield of 

 fruit in June. The subsequent or autumn crop is 

 frequently less profuse. If, however, the blossoms 

 are removed from the plants until the last of June, 

 the autumn crop will be very greatly improved — 

 both in size of yield and the berries themselves. 

 Aside from removing the blossoms by hand picking, 

 the culture of these autumn-bearing varieties is the 

 same as other Strawberries. 



Upon moist, fertile land our pot-grown plants of 

 these fall-bearing Strawberries frequently produce 

 some sweet, ripe berries in a few weeks from the 

 time they are planted. We advise "hill culture" 

 (done by clipping off all the runners soon after they 

 appear, thus restricting the growth to the parent 

 plants) for best results with these varieties.

 duce "line dark red delicious strawberries from July 

 until frost" and to be so very productive that 256 

 berries have been found on one plant. It is hardy, 

 a good plant maker and free in pollen, so does not 

 need the association of another variety in order to 

 produce its large crops. Dozen, $1.50; 100, $9.00. 



LUCKY BOY 



Our opinion last spring was that Lucky Boy was 

 entitled to the Blue Ribbon. This past summer, 

 however, the variety Champion Everbearing, grow- 

 ing alongside of Lucky Boy, gave us more fruit of 

 the same fine quality as Lucky Boy, but the individ- 

 ual berries did not average quite so large. 



In many respects it resembl-^s the variety Superb, 

 but it is more productive, fi mer. larger, and of better 

 quality. ^Dozen, $1.50; 100, $9.00.
