for Freezing. 
All the Collections we are 
offering include some varieties 
that are especially adapted for 
freezing. Among the best ones 
are Midland, Sparkle, Blake- 
more, Catskill, Premier, Fairfax, 
Fairpeake, Tennessee Beauty, 
Tennessee Shipper, Big Joe and 
Redstar. Remember, however, 
that any strawberry you have 
from your home garden or from 
other sources, are good frozen if 
they are good fresh. Their fine 
dessert quality will usually be 
held even though they may not 
look as good as the better freez- 
ing kinds. Strawberries lose very 
little of their Vitamin C on quick 
freezing.
