, , So. Milford, Ind., Aug. 12th. 1920. 
-I am sendmgr you a photo of the patch of berries planted in the snrlntr of 1QI<) 
berries. 
. as the 
-iiy neighbors will 
Yaurs very truly. 
Although the season was very hot and dry the 1,000 plants produced nearly 1,000 quarts of b( 
I will say that you cannot go wrong by planting Emiong's plants as thev are certainly hardv a 
past season proved. The new bed I planted this spring are certainly dandies, and my neighbor 
want some of your plants next spring. 
We Grow Our Own Plants 
W. W. WERT. 
We grow our own plants and this means a great deal to the purchaser. Although 
we grow many acres of them they are given the very best care possible, and our con- 
tinuous cultivation contributes largely to the highest state of maturity which our plants 
attain. We know that we can give our plants a more binding guarantee than would be 
possible If we depended on other growers for our plants. Please remember that every 
strawberry plant purchased from us is grown on our own rich ground, under our 
personal supervision, and you can bank on it that you will receive nothing but strictly 
first class stock. 
Strong Plants 
In order to produce plants that are all large and .strong it is necessary to give Iheni 
plenty of room for proper growth. You know that if a lot of plants are < rowded in an 
acre of ground, the result will be that you will have a lot of weak, inferior plants a.s 
they will crowd each other too closely. We place our plants far enough apart in the 
rows to insure them plenty of room and the result is that we get every plant to reach its 
highest state of maturity. Is it not clear to you. Mr. Fruit Grower, that these are the 
kind of plants you need to start you out properly in the berry business? We could grow 
the other kind if we thought we could expect your future orders by doing so. AVe know 
that our future success depends wholly on our customers' satisfaction, and needless 
to say we will go the limit in providing you with plants that will guarantee your future 
orders.
