Hayner 9 s Surecrop 



PREMIER 



(HOWARD 17) 



This variety is truly Amer- 

 ica's favorite strawberry ; no 

 variety ever introduced has 

 received so much praise, or 

 been grown profitably over so 

 wide a section of the coun- 

 try. Premier's adaptability |o 

 a wide range of soil and clini- 

 atic conditions, with its abil- 

 ity to withstand heavy frost, 

 has made it the early straw- 

 berry growers depend upon 

 for profits each spring. For 

 25 years they have held the 

 lead in all northern sections, 

 to do this a berry must be 

 good. We have a fine supply 

 of superior strain plants to 

 offer this spring. For real 

 berry success demand Ray- 

 ner's Big Yield Premier. 



GROWTH — Vigorous, makes 

 good fruiting bed in all types of 

 soil, very disease resistant. 



SIZE — First berries average 

 very large, will run down to- 

 ward the end of the season as so 

 many berries are set on each 

 plant. 



FIRMNESS — Berries firm enough for truck shipment but will not stand long refrigeration. 

 FROST RESISTANCE — Premier blooms so profusely on short stems under foliage that frost cannot 

 damage all blooms, and has never failed to make a crop. 

 QUALITY & FLAVOR— Good in North and Northeastern States, not the best in Southern sections. 

 PRODUCTIVENESS— Premier is the leader, under general conditions. 



Premier is SURE— Yield and Profit 



FAIRMORE 



(Much Reduced) 



Finest Flavor, Firm and Delicious 



(N. C. 669). Introduced two 

 seasons ago from a cross made 

 at U. S. D. A. plant field station, 

 in 1933 between Blakemore and 

 Fairfax, these two outstanding 

 parents both are crosses of Prem- 

 ier, thus Fairmore should in- 

 herit a wide range of adaptabili- 

 ty, has been planted heavily in 

 N. C, returning the growers top 

 market prices throughout the en- 

 tire season. Is rapidly gaining 

 favor in many other strawberry 

 sections, we feel that it will soon 

 be a leader. Makes very vigor- 

 ous healthy growth, berries are 

 large and uniform with raised 

 yellow seed. Is very firm, has 

 a delightful flavor, and large 

 beautiful cap. Can be shipped 

 under refrigeration or open truck 

 great distances and arrive in ex- 

 cellent condition. Ripens early 

 about with Blakemore, producing 

 a heavy crop. The yield of No. 

 1 berries is usually greater than that 

 of Blakemore. If you have not tried this 

 variety we urge you test it with the varieties 

 you are growing ; if you have seen them fruit 

 we know you will include them in your order.
