Mr. lianter is justly proud of this ZYz montli old berry field 



Gentlemen: Pendleton Co., Penna., Oct. 18, 1936. 



Have just had six months experience growing strawberries. Before that time I had never even seen 

 the roots of a Strawberry plant. The plants I ordered from you last spring were set the first of May, 

 the enclosed picture was taken the 15th of August. Just S% months after the plants were set. I have 

 Fairfax, Premier, Big Joe, Chesapeake and Mastodon and the climate here seems to agree with all of 

 them. 



There is absolutely no excuse for anyone not growing Strawberries who will buy Rayner's plants 

 and follow the cultural instructions in their Berry Book. 



Yours truly, Mr. C. J. Lanter.
