PICKING THE WINNERS 



Premier 



EARLY *^* ^ e outstanding profit maker. In all around worth 



it has had no close rival. No variety every swept the 

 country in so short a time. No variety is perfect, but 

 Premier approaches perfection. BLAKEMORE is an 

 excellent early variety. As a long distance shipping 

 berry it is even better than Premier. BELLMAR combines many of the good 

 qualities of both. The new U. S. Dept. of Agriculture introductions, Fairfax 

 and Dorsett, inject a new factor of higher quality into the variety situation. 

 We believe they threaten the prestige even of Premier both as Home Garden 

 and Commercial varieties. 



MIDSEASON -^°t as universally popular nor valuable as Premier but 



still about the best all around midseason berry. ABER- 

 DEEN and BEAUTY come next. Where Big Joe is not 

 at its best either of them may completely satisfy your 

 needs for a profit making midseason berry. ABER- 

 DEEN for shipping or trucking; BEAUTY for local or nearby market. 



LATE The Aristocrat of Strawberries. Where 



it grows well no variety, not even Premier, 

 will surpass it as a profit maker. Equally 

 good for shipping, local market, or home 

 garden. If your soil does not suit Chesa- 

 peake, plant LUPTON for a large late shipping berry, WILLIAM BELT or 

 BIG LATE where attractiveness and quality are most important. 



EVERBEARING This variety stands Supreme among the 



Everbearers. Excellent for the home 

 garden and the only Everbearer worthy 

 of planting for profit. SUPER GIANT 

 is not quite as productive as Mastodon 



but the berries are of equally large size, handsome appearance, and somewhat 



better in quality. 



Aroma, Gandy, Dunlap, Gibson, Sample, Pearl, Cooper and others are excel- 

 lent varieties. Grow these if you know and like them, but if you are inexperi- 

 enced or uncertain stick to the winners picked above.
