C. S. Perdue's Strawberry Plant Farm. 



PROGRESSIVE. (Fall Bearing.) The very 

 best of all fall bearing varieties, leading them 

 all on account of its good yielding qualities. 

 They should be set out in good rich soil and 

 given good applications of manure. They will 

 bear a few weeks after plants are set and con- 

 tinue to bear until freezing weather. They 

 are hoed, fertilized and cultivated just as 

 other varieties. It will pay you to plant Pro- 

 gressive everbearers and enjoy some of the 

 best strawberries you ever ate. 



Note clipping from farm and Home of Aug. , 

 1921: **Small Bed Worth While. I bought 

 100 everbearing strawberry plants last spring 

 and as soon asjfrost was out of the ground I 

 set them two by three feet apart, first having 

 the ground well spaded and heavily dressed. 

 I planted each plant so the roots were well 

 spread out and I raised every one. As I clean- 

 ed the hen house I put the hen dressing be- 

 tween each root. I kept all buds and blossoms 

 picked off until July 1st and in about six 

 weeks I was picking ripe berries; the last I 

 was Sept. 28th, when I picked enough to fill 

 six sauce dishes. For $2.00, the amount I paid 

 out, I feel well repaid for the berries I re- 

 ceived. Mrs. James E. Bunnell, Maine.''
