Premier, the money-making king of all. 



10. Size. Premier berries average large in size and hold their size well 

 throughout the long bearing season, being much better in this respect than any 

 variety we grow which approaches Prernier in productiveness. Chesapeake 

 yields a medium crop and sizes up practically all of them. Premier yields a 

 tremendously heavy crop and sizes up a very large percentage, but will run down 

 somewhat, especially toward the end of a very dry season. 



11. Healthy Foliage. For any variety to produce a big crop of berries 

 healthy foliage is essential. Premier and Chesapeake have the healthiest foliage 

 of any two varieties we are growing, and this, we believe, is largely responsible 

 for their outstanding success as profit makers. Premier will, of course, have 

 more vigorous, greener foliage on rich, well fertilized land, but even on poor 

 land or wet land, Premier practically never has the leaf spot or rust, which is so 

 destructive to many other varieties under similar conditions. 



12. Profit. If you are going to raise strawberries at all you cannot afford to 

 leave out Premier. If you can make any profit at all from most other varieties 

 you should be able to make good profit with Premier. Read the letters on page 5.
