THE MOST DEPENDABLE AND 

 PROFITABLE EARLY BERRY FOR 

 OVER 25 YEARS 



Truly America's favorite strawberry; 

 no variety ever introduced has received 

 so much praise, or been grown profitably 

 over so wide a section of the country. 

 PREMIER'S adaptability to a wide range 

 of soil and climatic conditions, with its 

 ability to withstand heavy frost, has made 

 the early strawberry growers depend 

 upon it for profits each spring. For over 

 25 years it has proven a leader in all 

 northern sections. We have a fair supply 

 of superior strain plants to offer this 

 spring, so we suggest you place an early 

 order for Rayner's Big Yield PREMIER. 



Growth — Vigorous, makes good fruiting bed in 

 all types of soil, very disease resistant. 



Size — First berries average very large* will run 

 down toward the end of the season as so many 

 berries are set on each plant. 



Firmness — Berries firm enough for truck shipment 

 but will not stand long refrigeration. 



Frost Resistant — Premier blooms so profusely on short stems under foliage that frost cannot damage all blooms, 

 and has never failed to make a crop. 



Quality and Flavor — Good in North and Northeastern States, not the best in Southern sections. 



Productiveness — Premier is the leader, under general conditions.

FAIRMORE 



A cross of Blakemore and Fairfax with 

 many of parents' finer points, FAIRMORE is 

 widely grown in North Carolina, all Eastern 

 and Southeastern States and as far north as 

 Pennsylvania. Good commercial and home 

 garden variety with high production of firm, 

 fine quality berries. Medium early with quite 

 a long fruiting season, FAIRMORE is an ex- 

 cellent long distance shipper. 



KLONDYKE 



NEW IMPROVED 



A fine early commercial berry for the South and South 

 Central States, KLONDYKE is very popular and widely 

 grown. Vigorous growth of clean foliage with medium 

 large, smooth and uniform, bright red berries that are 

 firm, excellent shippers. 



MISSIONARY 



An old dependable shipping variety, largely grown in 

 Florida and other southern states. Does well in all types 

 of soil, especially well in lighter types. Very popular 

 with the juice men, fruit is medium size, rather tart, 

 dark red and very attractive. A heavy producer and sizes 

 up entire crop well. 



KLONMORE 



RECENT DEVELOPMENT 



Recently developed cross of Klondyke and Blakemore 

 is adapted to the same general area as its parents and 

 has many of the more desirable characteristics of both. 

 Very vigorous grower, productive of blunt cone shaped 

 berries light red color, firm and excellent shipper. Trial 

 plantings have been very successful.
