STRAWBERRY PLANTS OV QUALITY 



Plant Some Strawberries This Spring 



Strawberries are the first fruit to ripen in the sprinj? and people are glad to get them 

 and are willing to pay good prices for them. AVhy not help meet this demand and reai) 

 some of the profits? They are easy to grow, yield a sure i)r()fit, and this profit is early 

 in the season when most needed. Many growers make from $2(K» to .$.">(M> per acn> and 

 some even more than this. Even if you have only a small garden or l)aekyar(l you 

 should grow them. You will be surprised and delighted with the results. .lust think 

 how much better it would be to have them so you could go o\it and pick them fresh from 

 the vines any time you want them and then you will get the "real" strawberry flavor for 

 you find they will have a much richer flavor than berries that have been i)icked 24 to 

 48 hours and in many instances much longer. 



Then just think of the many ways you can serve them — sugared down and served 

 with milk or cream, canned, preserved, jam, in short cake, ice cream — they're tine any 

 way you fix them and no other piece of land of same size, and with so little expense 

 and labor, will yield as much in satisfaction and profit, and by planting some everbearing 

 plants this spring you can enjoy strawberries this summer and fall. 



Be sure to plant some this spring. You will be glad you did. Order plants now 

 for your strawberry garden and I will reserve them for you and shii) when you say. 

 250 to 500 plants, if given proper care, will supply all you can use the whole season thru, 

 with some canned for winter use, and probably some to sell to your neighbors who will 

 be more than glad to get them. 



SET PLANTS EARLY 



Set strawberry plants early — just as early as the ground can be worked. The na- 

 tural and most successful time to set all plants is in the early spring. P^very thing in 

 nature takes on new life at this time, and your plants will do much better planted then 

 than at any other time. 



Plants are dormant during the w^inter and just start putting out new foliage and will 

 stand handling better than at any other time ; also there is less foliage and can be packed 

 in smaller packages and transportation will be less. 



Plants set in early spring, before the sun gets hot, will enable them to get started 

 much earlier. Then, there is plenty of moisture at this time, something every plant must 

 have to live and when set under these conditions, if properly set will live almost to a 

 plant and enables the plants to get started good before the hot dry weather sets in. 



Be sure to set your plants early this spring. I would suggest ordering plants shipped 

 a few days before you intend setting (they can be heeled in if necessary) so they will be 

 there ready to set when the weather is just right for setting. 



Pryor's Strawberry Plants 



Are especially grown for plants on high land and have a 

 well developed root system that makes them grow and pro- 

 duce results for my customers when planted in their fields. 

 I grow and handle no other kind of nursery stock putting 

 all my time and attention to the growing, packing, etc.. of 

 strawberry plants, trying to do this one thing well and be- 

 lieve I can give you better plants and service than I could 

 if I liandled several other kinds of nursery stock, and is 

 another reason wliy it will pay you to send me your ordei- 

 tliis year. 



When hoeing plants for tlie lirst time be sure to un- 

 cover the buds of all plants that have been covered l)y 

 wind, in cultivating, or too deep setting as they will never 

 amount to much if they are not uncovered. This is very 

 important, for the plants, altho they may not actually die. 

 will be so smothered that it will be all they can do to live 

 and will not have the vitality to put out runners and make 

 plants.
