Big Joe — pretty, productive, profitable 



enough to stand shipment moderate distances. The plants should be well mulched 

 if possible, as the fruit stems are not able to hold the great crops of berries off the 

 ground. This variety has proven very profitable with many customers. One cus- 

 tomer tells us that he regularly makes over a thousand dollars per acre, growing 

 Haverland, because of its great productiveness and because the berries sell at a 

 premium over other varieties on his market. 



Haverland is mostly grown by experienced strawberry growers. We have a 

 fine stock of plants for them or any others who want to try it. Price-list page 35. 



Paul Jones. Except, possibly Premier, Paul Jones is the most productive 

 berry we have. It is a very vigorous grower and makes a strong, healthy plant bed 

 under almost all conditions. In any sections where great quantities of berries are 

 wanted, Paul Jones should be quite valuable. It will produce tremendous crops 

 of medium size, dark red berries, fairly good looking and fairly good in quality. 

 It should be fruited with Big Joe or McAlpin. The berries are rather long in shape, 

 somewhat resembling the Haverland, but are darker in color. We believe that, to 

 get the greatest satisfaction and profits from your berry plantings, it would be 

 better to plant the larger, fancier berries such as Premier for early, Big Joe or 

 Eaton for mid-season, and Chesapeake, Big Late, McAlpin or Wm. Belt for late. 

 We have a nice stock of Paul Jones plants and they sure do fill the boxes. Price- 

 list page 35.
