TRUE-TONAME STRAWBERRY PLANTS 



Supplement Your Salary 



The work is easy, healthy, pleasant, and can be 

 done at odd chances. To the man who works in an 

 office all day. it will be an especial pleasure to get 

 out in the garden and make money while he t^kes 

 his much-needed exercise. A Strawberry- garden 

 offers the best possible chance for the man with a 

 little land, to supplement his salary. You can sell 

 tancv berries at a good price anytime and with a 

 little common sense and good plants, you can grow 

 fancy berries — and make some extra money. Let 

 us help you do it. 



A Family Business 



The small farmer with a large family and little 

 land can grow berries profitably, because Straw- 

 berries give a larger return per acre than almost 

 any other farm crop. Again, it provides healthy, 

 agreeable work for the children, right at home, 

 working together with father or mother. They can 

 help and will be glad to do it. Ask them about it.

Strawberries in Young Orchard 



There is no better way to utilize the ground in a 

 voung orchard than by growing Strawberries. (See 

 picture.) Make the berries pay for growing the 

 orchard. Berries give a quick return and will bring 

 in money while you are waiting for the orchard to 

 come into bearing. They not only help pay for the 

 orchard, but they are good for the orchard. Straw- 

 berries should be thoroughly cultivated and there 

 is nothing better for the orchard than this. Tillage 

 is manure and. the more we cultivate, the better 

 both Strawberries and orchards will be. 



Double Real-Estate Value 



Strawberries increase the value of your farm. 

 There is no better way to dispose of real estate at 

 a good price, than by setting it to Strawberries. 

 Not only can you get a much higher price for such 

 land, but it is much easier to sell. If you doubt the 

 added value a Strawberry patch affords, try to 

 buy some land set to Strawberries, just before they 

 begin to fruit. Here's the experience of one man: 



February 3. 1916. Merrimack County. N. H. 

 Dear Sirs: The only Strawberry plants I remember were 

 from your concern, some few years ago when I thought I would 

 ike to raise them for money, but after everything was ready

 about 1,500 quarts per acre at a single picking, and 

 ready to make delivery to a nearby town. 



for a heavy crop the following spring, a gentleman came along 

 and bought my farm. Presumably the acre of Strawberries 

 sold the place, and at a handsome profit. Yours respectfully.

But, even if the price is higher, it is a good propo- 

 sition for the buyer. He gets the land and a valuable 

 crop just coming on that will help him greatly in 

 paying for the land, or in equipping his farm. Real- 

 estate men and others often plant orchards to help 

 sell land. Strawberries would be just as good, or 

 even better, on small tracts of land already quite 

 valuable. 



OUR PLANTS ABOVE REPROACH 

 We are not much on testimonials, but can say that your 

 plants formerly have been as near perfect as any we have ever 

 seen and came as near all living as any we ever bought, and 

 your packing and count we consider above reproach. — John 

 T. Elrod. Ripley County. Ind.. January 18, 1016.
