Big Crops From Allen's Plants 



Sold On Premier— It Always Yields Well! 



Mahoning County, Ohio. July 13th, 1931. — From 100 

 Premier plants which I purchased from you in April, 

 1930, I picked 127 quarts of fine berries. This may not 

 be a record but I think it is good for an amateur. I am 

 sold on the Premier. Mr. F. L. Elliott. 



Allen's Fine Premier for Record Yields. 



Tucker County, W. Va.. April 15th, 1931.— The 500 

 Premier strawberry plants came the 13th and I got them 

 planted in good shape and if weather conditions are 

 favorable expect a good stand as the plants were in as 

 fine shape as any I have gotten in the past forty years. 

 In the spring of 1926 we picked from 400 Premier 

 planted the previous year over 250 gallons, 1,000 quarts. 

 This is the best I have ever done in our more than 

 forty years of raising strawberries. ThaTik you for your 

 prompt shipment, fine plants and liberal count. 



John A. H. Swisher. 



100 Mastodon— A Roadside Market— $48.00. 



Strafford County, N. H., October 9th, 1931. — I have a 

 roadside stand with quite a call for strawberries. I 

 would like to know what kind of plants to set for con- 

 tinuous fruit. Everybody around here grows Premier or 

 Howard 17 and after these are gone that is the end. 

 The one hundred Mastodon plants that I bought from 

 you in April have paid me about S48.00 in Augnst and 

 September. Not so bad for a start. Our land here is 

 rather heavy and more or less clay which of course is 

 wet but plants seem to do well. My Mastodon have 

 probably multiplied about ten or more to one. My 

 Premier better than that, and my Chesapeake not so 

 good. Mr. K W. VarrUl. 



A Fine Yield. 5,000 Quarts From 4,000 Plants. 



Harford County, Md., November 26th, 1931. — The 4,000 

 plants bought of you in 1929 yielded 5.200 quarts. 



Mr. Howard C. Coale. 



2,000 Plants. 3,520 Quarts. Some Yield! 



Perry County, Pa., March 16th, 1931.— In 1929 I 

 bought 2,000 Premier Plants of you and I planted them. 

 Every one grew and in 1930 I picked 110 crates of them 

 but that w-as the best crop I ever had. In 1930 I bought 

 5,000 Premier of you. Every one grew. 500 Mastodon 

 and they all grew, Mr. F. B. Gish. 



High Prices For Chesapeake — They're 

 Worth It. 



Montgomery County, Md., February 2nd, 1931. — The 

 plants I bought of you in 1929 were fine. Last spring 

 they produced the finest berries you ever saw. We tried 

 to sell at advance prices. The highest price 30c per 

 quart, the lowest 20c per quart wholesale. On June 

 23rd this town saw the finest berries ever seen there. 

 They looked like wax berries and were put on show in 

 our best restaurant window. People came in and asked 

 if they were wax. Everybody was told that I raised 

 them. The next day at least 50 people complimented 

 me on them_ They were your Chesapeake. I received 

 30c a quart wholesale. Allen's plants are best. 



Mr. Donald Bowie. 



$1,000.00 From One-Half Acre. That's Tip Top. 



Lebanon County, Pa., February 9th, 1931. — In the 

 spring of 1929 I bought plants from you to put out 

 slightly less than one-half acre. The plants made a 

 thick bed and we sold some to our neighbors. The 

 strawberries were a delight to see. We picked 177 

 crates which we sold for almost S900.00 leaving, with 

 the plants sold, over 51.000 from less than one-half acre. 

 Of course this was the best crop I ever had. I like 

 Allen's plants and have always recommended the same 

 to my neighbors and I do not think there are many 

 other plants coming into this vicinity. I should have 

 said that we put about 400 pounds of fertilizer on this 

 patch in the spring. Mr. Wm. J. Bean.
