VERY EARLY. EXCELLENT QUALITY AND BEAUTY 



Throughout the northeastern and central 

 states, this is one of the finest of all strawberries 

 for flavor, quahty, and appearance. The berries 

 are very large and have a beautiful deep red color. 

 The flesh is firm and has a fine sohd red texture 

 that rates ^Midland as one of the best of all for 

 freezing. Berries ripen verj' early and bring top 

 prices, so this is a fine variety for either small or 

 large-scale commercial use. On Long Island \'irus- 

 free ]\Iidland has proven to be an outstanding 

 variety for the high-quahty New York market. 



We strongly recommend iNIidland for home 

 gardens and local sales where its excellent quahty 

 and fine appearance make it a real favorite. The 

 plants are vigorous and resistant to leaf troubles 

 and do not make too many runners as is the case 

 with some varieties. Give ]\Iidland good growing 

 conditions and you will be rewarded ^ath a fine 

 strawberry in all respects. Rammer's registered 

 virus-free stock of Midland will bring the best 

 out of this excellent variety.

ONE OF THE BETTER EARLY VARIETIES FOR COMMERCIAL PRODUCTION 



Since its introduction in 1956 by the 

 United States Dept. of Agriculture, 

 Earlidawn has been of steadily in- 

 creasing importance as an early com- 

 mercial strawberry. It ripens before 

 all other strawberries and produces 

 tremendous crops that lead the cus- 

 tomers right to your door for those 

 early profits. Berries of Earhdawn are 

 light-red in color and have a fairly 

 firm, light-red flesh. The flavor is tart 

 and when used for preserves and freez- 

 ing this variety gives fine results. 



Plants of Earlidawn often do not 

 make quite as many runners as some 

 varieties but in any reasonably good 

 soil it will usually make a fine fruiting 

 bed. Like other strawberries suscep- 

 tible to Verticilhum wilt this variety should not be planted in soil where tomatoes or potatoes have 

 recently been grown. Despite its earliness, Earlidawn has unusual frost resistance and thus is a very 

 dependable producer. It ripens rapidly and produces lots of big berries that make the rows sliine with 

 the unmatched beauty of red, ripe strawberries. Rayners virus-free stock will result in the best success 

 with Earlidawn.
