BUY RAYNER'S 

 LARGE VIGOROUS PLANTS 



Temple was introduced iu 1945 as tlie result of 

 a cooperative breeding and testing program between 

 the University of Maryland and the U. S. Dept. of 

 Agriculture. It was intended mainly for the eastern 

 shore of Maryland but soon spread to many other 

 states. Because of its Fairfax parentage Temple Has 

 Unexcelled Flavor and for those who can grow it this 

 is a wonderful variety. It does best in fertile, moist 

 soil where it will produce good yields of large, tirm 

 fruit. Temple Has A Long Picking Season — ripening 

 almost with Blakemore and continuing to bear heav- 

 ily for about a month. In many locations this is such 

 a fine berry that the demand for fruit is greater than 

 the supply. On roadside stands and on other fresh 

 markets it brings the customers back time and time 

 again. If you want a High Class Berry For \ Qual- 

 ity Market try Rayner's vigorous stock of Temple. 



For those who have a problem with the red stele 

 disease Temple may be the real answer. It is sutfi- 

 ciently resistant to make perfect crops in land where 

 other varieties are a failure. Buy Rayner's plants
