ALBRITTON 



The one with CLASS 



ALBRITTON is best adapted to the coastal region of North Carolina and to a 

 limited degree to the coastal areas of Virginia and Maryland. The plants make 

 a very vigorous growth and are quite productive when grown in this area. 

 Moving north, you do not get the high yields obtained in North Carolina. 



ALBRITTON berries are beautiful. We know of no other strawberry that 

 has more class and they demand a premium price in markets where they are 

 available. The berries are vivid red, turning to deeper red when fully ripe. They 

 are glossy, uniform in shape with exceptional flavor and large size. We have a 

 nice supply of some very beautiful ALBRITTON plants that will produce for 

 you. Order soon. 



We received our order for 2,000 Albritton and 1,000 Earlidawn on March 12th, 

 just two days after they were shipped. They were fine plants and in splendid 

 condition. You are so generous in your count — the bunches of 25 plants that 1 

 counted all had 2 or 3 extra plants. Everyone likes to get something for free/

ARMORE 



Full of vigor — fine for home garden 



The late bearing of ARMORE has made it a popular variety in the middle 

 states. ARMORE has vigor and vitality and runner development is no problem 

 with this variety. ARMORE berries are large in size, irregular in shape, light 

 red and highly flavored. They are sub-acid, however, and this, along with lack 

 of firmness, prevents them from being tops for freezing or preserving. ARMORE 

 is still the one to grow for home garden or roadside stand for those growers 

 in the middle states needing a highly productive late variety. See ARMORE 

 berries on page 20. 



Dear Sir: I would just like to say that I have had very good luck with your 

 plants. Several years ago, I did not lose a single plant out of a 200 plant order. 

 My father was planting your stock 30 years ago and recommended your company 

 to everyone. 



Mrs. Raymond S. Burkholder, Waynesboro, Pa. 



"TIPS" ON PICKING 



"Pick" rather than "pull" berries from the plants when the fruit is to be sold 

 on the fresh market. Pinch the berry stem from the plant with the thumb 

 and forefinger, leaving about one-half inch of stem still attached to the berry. 

 Place the berries gently in the boxes to prevent bruising. Hold only two or 

 three berries in the hand at one time to prevent squeezing them. Avoid "snap- 

 ping" the berries from the plants, thus leaving stems and caps in the field. 

 Such berries do not ship well and break down faster than those with stems. 

 Note: Berries picked in the early morning when they are fairly cool, and kept 

 in the shade will keep better than those picked during mid-day or those left in 

 sun after picking.
