Order Perdue's Maryland Grown Missionary 



Strawberry Plants. They Are Better And 



100% True-to-name. 



MISSIONARY (Perfect). Early. Perdue's 

 type of Missionary plants are enormously 

 productive, yielding larger crops of straw- 

 berries than can be produced from any other 

 stock of Missionary plants no matter where 

 you get them. Perdue's Missionary plants 

 are propagated from the parent plants that 

 have been selected for their high yielding 

 qualities. The plants are grown on a type of 

 soil and in the most favorable location in the 

 State of Maryland for producing the best 

 quality of Missionary plants in this country. 

 The plants are very large in size with a root 

 system that cannot be excelled. Perdue's 

 Missionary plants will make the finest and 

 largest yielding strawberry fields in all sec- 

 tions of the country where Missionary straw- 

 berries are grown. The Missionary variety 

 is extensively grown in Florida, where I have 

 a very large trade for the plants. For the 

 information of those who have never grown 

 this variety, they will make enough plants 

 for a good fruiting bed and bear very large 

 crops of bright red berries of excellent qua- 

 lity. Order Perdue's State Certified Mission- 

 ary plants, they are better. Price list on 

 pages 8 and 9.
