 We have listed all of the old and new favorites in this lit 

 cation. Therefore, you are assured of not only satisfacto 

 you select from our Midsummer List. 



Easily Grown 



Strawberry- plants are very easy to grow, since they succeed 

 in a wide range of soils and climates. From the Arctic Circle 

 to the far Tropics, Strawberrj' growing is on a large commer- 

 cial scale, and in our own mild zone, they will give excellent 

 results in any garden soil, clay or loam, which would be satis- 

 factory for the production of vegetables. 



Save a Season 



The dry heat of late Summer ordinarily retards the strug- 

 gling, freshly planted Layer Strawberries. Our Pot-grown 

 varieties are much more practical for home culture, since a 

 good crop of berries is assured the very next year after plant- 

 ing, and for several years thereafter. 



Other Advantages 



Through years of experimenting, Strawberry growers have 

 become convinced that Pot-grown plants will produce larger 

 crops of larger berries than will the field-grown layer plants, 

 excepting when the planting is done in early Spring. 



Varieties to Plant 



To provide for fresh Strawberries from early Summer until 

 late Fall, at least four varieties should be planted. One of 

 them should be an earfy bearing sort, another one which bears 

 in Midseason, third, your favorite late fruiting variety, and 

 fourth, a Fall or Everbearing Strawberry. A dozen or more of 

 each sort should be planted if one is to be assured of an ample 

 crop of fruit. 



Planting Time 



To give the best results, Pot-grown plants should be planted 

 from July 20th to October 1st, preferably by the first of 

 September. 



Pre-Planting Instructions 



Unpack your plants immediately upon arrival, place them 

 in a shady spot, and sprinkle them lightly with water. As 

 evening approaches, take them to where the ground is pre- 

 pared to plant, and just before planting them, dip each root 

 ball in a pail of water.
