ALLEN'S PLANTS PAY 



WHAT IS A GOOD PLANT? 



It is a plant which is of fair size for the variety with a strong crown and a vigor- 

 ous, well developed root system. 



It is a plant which is true to name and correctly labelled. 



It is a plant which is healthy — free from insects and diseases on both roots and 

 foliage. 



It is a plant which has the vitality to grow vigorously and bear heavy crops. This 

 vitality must be conserved by careful handling and packing to still be a good plant 

 when it reaches you. 



We have had 59 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE in growing, handling and packing good 

 strawberry plants. We grow and sell no other nursery crop. For these reasons we 

 have confidence in our ability to supply you better plants than growers of equal ability 

 who have less experience and who try to handle many kinds of nursery stock. 



This year when plants are scarce and high in price, it is most important to get 

 GOOD plants, DEPENDABLE plants, ALLEN'S plants.

 plants for over 40 years from you, and have always 

 been well pleased. I have entered my 83rd year.

 always received from you in the past, I shall be
