DIRECTIONS FOR CULTURE 



strawberries require well-tilled soil; the plants should be set 15 inches apart, in rows 

 2 feet wide. Firm the plants well in the soil and keep thoroughly cultivated. 



In early winter when the ground is frozen, cover the whole with long straw, which 

 should be removed from the plant in the spring, but allowed to remain on the ground as 

 a mulch, to keep the berries clean next summer. When strawberries are moved in the 

 fall, they should be left until October or the first of November.

VARIETIES 



Early Jersey Wakefield, CKarleston. Wakefield, Succession, and Early Flat Dutch, 



These plants are grown in the open field during the fall and winter months, which causes them to make a slow, tough, 

 hardy growth — so hardy that the outer leaves turn to a reddish brown. They can be shipped to distant points without danger 

 of spoiling, and should be planted in the open ground from four to five weeks earlier than frame plants. 



They will stand a temperature of 10 to 15 degrees above zero without injury. Will do very much better planted early, as 

 they will take root and start to grow as soon as warm weather sets in. 



Orders filled from January 1 until April 1. We do not advise planting' later than this time. 



Prices by Parcel Post, postage paid. In lots of 100, 200, 300, or 400 plants at 50c. per 100 plants; 500 plants for $1.60;
