MIDLAND 



"Freezer Queen" 



MIDLAND has everything the grower looks for in a great variety; productive 

 plants, beautiful berries. 



MIDLAND plants are large and healthy when grown in good soil and given 

 excellent care. As the name implies, this variety is best adapted to the middle 

 states — but when irrigation is used to combat frost, it can be grown well in 

 the northern states. 



MIDLAND berries ripen early — just a little later than Earlidawn. They are 

 red right through, very firm, and average large in size. MIDLAND does best 

 on roadside stands, home gardens, or pick-your-own as darkening of berries on 

 holding prevents them from being extra good for distant shipments. They are 

 excellent for freezing, however, and you should have some in your garden. See 

 facing page for color picture of the beautiful Midland berries — and send in 

 your order at once. 



Dear Sir: I am ordering from a 68 book. If I am not sending enough, please Jet 

 me know, and if I am sending too much, keep it — for I am always pleased with 

 the plants you send. I have raised Midland for several years just for my own use 

 and they are wonderful! George Ellis, Georgetown, Ohio

EARLIDAWN 



Earliest of all — and ever so good 



EARLIDAWN just cannot be overlooked by any grower! It is well adapted from 

 North to South. EARLIDAWN plants need good soil and plenty of moisture for 

 best results. EARLIDAWN is one of the very few varieties we can "brag" on 

 for frost resistance; blooms are well protected by short flower stems. A word 

 of caution, however; if red stele or verticillium wilt are known to be present 

 in your soil, Earlidawn is not the variety to set because of susceptibility to both 

 diseases. 



Berries of EARLIDAWN are delightful, delicious, delectable — large, glossy, 

 and vivid red. Firmness and tartness make EARLIDAWN berries excellent for 

 marketing, freezing, and preserving. For table use — it is one of the very best. 

 See the glory of Earlidawn in color picture facing page — and order now! 



Kind Friends: I am writing you a line to thank you for your prompt attention to 

 my strawberry order. I received the replacement of my order for the Earlidawn 

 plants and they were just fine. Want to thank you again. Have given several 

 friends your catalog and can recommend your plants and your service. Thank 

 you again, Vernon Vanaman, New Matamoras, Ohio
