Berries Leading Profit Makers 



Strawberries did it again! Growers throughout the Country 

 report their 1948 Strawberry harvest the biggest source of cash 

 profit. Many who also had blueberries ; raspberries, black- 

 berries or grapes reported top market prices. 



The reason is simply this — there is still a shortage of berry 

 plantings and the supply of fruit is not meeting the demand. 

 This has been true since the wartime years when fruit growers 

 turned to other crops to supply the need overseas. 



The continued expansion of the frozen food industry as well as 

 a greatly increased use of fresh fruit is keeping berries on the 

 wanted list. 



Whether you are a large farmer, roadside marketer or a home 

 gardener you will find the berry fruits will pay you more for 

 your investment than anything you plant.
