REMIER IS MR. BIG 

 of strawberry varieties! 

 id to miss a crop, PLANT PREMIER. 

 If a heavy yietd is what you want, PLANT PREMIER. 

 If a big profit is what you need, PLANT PREMIER. 

 Most of the records for heavy yields and big profits for the 

 last 30 years have been made with Premier. For 31 years, 

 since its introduction in 1915, Premier has not missed a crop. 

 Many varieties are frost resistant — only Premier, on its 

 record, can claim to be frostproof. 



The Premier territory includes all the middle and northern 

 states as far west as Minnesota and Iowa and in the higher 

 altitudes as far south as North Carolina and Tennessee. In 

 this whole area, Premier is the most popular commercial 

 variety, being planted on many more acres than any other 

 kind. 



A National strawberry variety survey was published in July 

 1947 Indiana Horticulture. Among growers in the upper 

 Mississippi Valley states six times as many said they would 

 plant Premier as any variety, Catskill being second and Fair- 

 fax tied with others for third. In the northeastern states more 

 growers said they would plant Premier than any other variety 

 except Catskill. In the same survey, State Experiment Sta- 

 tions of 22 states in the area recommended Premier, 15 

 Catskill, 14 Blakemore and 10 Fairfax. 



Premier, still the leader, is the only one of the leading 

 ^ present day varieties not produced by scientific breeding at 

 I the various state or federal agricultural experiment stations. 

 1 Premier "blood", however, is present as parent or grand- 

 parent in nearly all of the 10 or 12 best commercial varieties 

 of today, including Catskill, Fairfax, Midland, Blakemore, 

 Dorsett, Fairpeake, Redstar, Sparkle, Temple, the new
