Bright caps — firm — good shipper 



Growers in the middle states just can't go wrong in setting TENNESSEE 

 BEAUTY plants for their late berries. Plants of TENNESSEE BEAUTY are 

 vigorous and thinning is sometimes necessary to conserve vitality for berry 

 production. Good resistance to foliage diseases is inherent with the TENNESSEE 

 BEAUTY variety. 



Berries of TENNESSEE BEAUTY are delightful — lovely bright green caps 

 topping medium to large, glossy red fruit. TENNESSEE BEAUTY berries are 

 firm and ship well — and are extra good for freezing and preserving. You can 

 grow TENNESSEE BEAUTY berries just like those on the back cover of this 

 Book of Berries. Order now. 



Gentiemen: The Tennessee Beauty plants you sent us last year are now the finest 

 prospect for an excellent yield you ever saw — my mouth is watering now — and 

 so are the mouths of my neighbors! Jackson Davis, Danville, Kentucky 



LET'S HAVE A JAM SESSION 



TENNESSEE BEAUTY berries are excellent for preserving and we urge you 

 to try this recipe for the best Strawberry Jam you have ever eaten: 



3 cups firm strawberries 



3 cups sugar 



1. Rinse, hull, and drain berries on absorbent paper. Halve the very large 

 berries. Put fruit into heavy pan. 



2. Add 1 cup sugar, stirring gently, bring to boil. Boil 5 minutes, stirring 

 constantly. 



3. Repeat step No. 2 — two more times, using remaining two cups sugar and 

 boiling 5 minutes after each addition. 



4. Turn into shallow pan. Cool, stirring occasionally, and skim. Cover loosely 

 and allow to stand 24 hours. 



5. The next day, ladle into hot sterilized jars and seal. 

 Yields three 8 ounce jars. Delicious! 



Dear Sir: Two years ago, I bought strawberry plants from you for my little 

 vegetable garden so my daughter could get to know about nature better. We had 

 nice berries all summer Jong. The next spring I had so many new plants — but 

 didn't have a place for 150 more. My daughter and I made a silly note to sell the 

 plants and soon, a farmer came and bought all the extra berry plants — and I still 

 had the original plants, so healthy. This is the first time 1 ever grew strawberry 

 plants, too! I just want to say thank you for such nice plants and for the fun we 

 have had with them. Mrs. Donald H. Fagans, Plainfield, N. J.
