BERRY GARDENS 



for 

 Family Health and Enjoyment 



Add Luxury to your Living with Lots of Luscious berries from a Lovely Little Garden 



The price you pay when you buy good 

 berries and the delicacies of taste and 

 flavor which they provide would rate 

 strawberries a luxury. But actually it need 

 not be so. Every family with a small plot 

 of ground could and should have a straw- 

 berry garden. Experience is not necessary 

 — beginners can grow them successfully 

 and profitably. Strawberries are enjoyed in 

 many ways — fresh from the vines, sug- 

 ared down, in preserves and jam, in 

 strawberry short cake, that delicious des- 

 sert which ranks with apple pie as a 

 national favorite. Frozen berries provide 

 a way to lengthen the all too short berry- 

 season and enjoy that "fresh" flavor the 

 year round. 



Don't forget the health angle. Straw- 

 berries are a delicious and healthful food 

 and provide an unsurpassed source of 

 Vitamin C. 



Superb for sharing. 'What more delight- 

 ful gift than a quart or two of these spark- 

 ling beauties? They'll make and hold, 

 friends, even if they envy you a bit 



A budget saver! Why spend money 

 on lesser desserts with plenty of these 

 ruby red gems sparkling on the vines?

WHY DON'T YOU TRY IT TOO? 

 "Tastes like a berry should." 



Stephenscn Co. 111. June 30, 1955. "We are so 

 pleased with the collection of berry plants that we 

 received from you in 1954, this being the first year 

 for our berries of course. We have only a little 

 garden space, expected to get enough berries to 

 eat sparingly, and have we ever had a crop! Plants 

 real tall and berries 21/2 to 3 inches around — all 

 meat and tasting like a berry should. Just won- 

 derful." ALFRED SCHRAMM. 



'Flavor out of this world! 



Rockland Co. N. Y. June 8, 1955. "My sincere 

 congratulations to real strawberry people. We 

 have picked over 240 heaping quarts of berries 

 from the 125 Catskill plants that we purchased 

 from you in 1954, and are still picking. The berries 

 ore beautiful and the flavor is out of this world." 

 JERRY Y. CARNEGIE. 



"F^rfax for Flavor, Catskill for Yield" 



Ashland Co. Ohio. Feb. 15, 1955. "I am not a com- 

 mercial grower, but I do enjoy a small plot in my 

 garden of 200 plants. My choice is Fairfax for 

 flavor and Catskill for yield and large berries. Hove 

 ordered berries from you for the past 10 years and 

 always received fine plants." W. R. WITT. 



Delaware Co. Ind. June 7, 1955. "Last year I 

 bought 50 Empire plants and do I have berries! 

 They beat any berry that I have ever raised for 

 flavor and bearing. They hold their size and they 

 just laid in winrows when they started to get ripe. 

 From now on its Empire for me for they sure agree 

 with Indiana diri." R. L. LOWE.
