Be Sure To Include Premier In Your Order 



PREMIER— The Great Early Variety 



The Most Popular Early Standard Berry. 



(See first cover and page 2 for illustration). 



All the good things that can be said about a strawberry can be said 

 about Premier. No strawberry yet introduced has brought the returns 

 to growers that Premier has, and it still stands unchallenged as a real 

 money maker. With the possible exception of Blakemore it stands alone 

 for adaptability to any type of soil or climate, producing enormous yields 

 under most adverse conditions. 



Premier makes an abundant plant growth for a good fruiting bed, of strong, 

 healthy plants, which are very productive, fruit ripens early and bears through a long 

 season. No variety produces more quarts of fancy berries per acre; this is very im- 

 portant with present low prices which makes it necessary to keep production costs 

 down as low as possible. Fruit is very large and attractive, a bright red with a green 

 cap which stays green to the end of the season and adds much to the beauty of the 

 fruit. It is almost frost-proof and has never failed to make a crop in this section 

 since first introduced, holds up well even during a very unfavorable season and in 

 extremely wet weather if kept picked closely will come through on the profit side of 

 your ledger. Afirm berry that will stand shipment to distant markets in good condition 

 and yet of such exceptional fine quality that it is unsurpassed as an early berry for 

 home garden or local market. 



To insure your next year's income plant a patch, an acre or five acres of Rayner 

 Brothers' Premier for you are sure to get results whether your planting be large or 

 small.

HOWARD No. 17. Believed by horti- 

 culturists to be the same as Premier. Was 

 introduced by a Mr. Howard a few years 

 after Premier and from our own experi- 

 ence we have found these varieties to be 

 one and the same variety. For full des- 

 cription see Premier. 



MISSIONARY. An old dependable va- 

 riety, largely grown in Florida and other 

 southern states. Will do well in almost 

 any type of soil and does especially well in 

 the lighter types. Is a favorite with the 

 juice men. Will probably be replaced by 

 Blakemore in the near future.
