GREAT CROPS OF STRAWBERRIES AND HOW TO GROW THEM

HAVERLAND. FEMALE OR PISTILLATE - MEDIUM 
I-IAVERLAND is another one of the varieties that enjoys universal popularity, and in sections where the bright crimson berry 
* * is most popular growers are increasing from year to year the number of plants set of this variety. When set with Dunlap, 
Haverland is perfectly pollenized. The fruit is long and large, bright crimson in color where the sun strikes it directly, shading 
to a light red on the under side. It is full and round at the stem and gradually tapers to an obtuse point. There is no other 
berry that presents a more tempting appearance when properly packed in boxes, and to all of those winning qualities is added 
the fact that Haverland yields tremendous crops of fruit every season where good soil and right cultural conditions are given. 
As a frost resistor it ranks with the most hardy. This is the twenty-fourth year we have bred Haverland under our system of 
selection'and restriction, which we think is a high tribute to its many excellent qualities. Grown at Three Rivers and Twin Falls. 
nificent rows of Kellogg's Prize plants, loaded with beautiful 
fruit, were plowed under. I am afraid I should still have 
doubted had I not seen with my own eyes those splendid 
plants and had an opportunity to sample the delicious fruit. 
1 am sure that I shall want some of the Kellogg's Prize. 
I want to tell you about the 25 Helen Davis plants I received 
from you a year ago last spring. The plants came in beauti- 
ful condition, but the grubs got after them, and only 17 of the 
Helen Davis plants escaped them. From these 17 plants and 
the runner plants that were developed from them, I made a 
first picking of a sufficient quantity of berries to can eleven or 
twelve quarts, and the second picking was just about the 
same in quantity and quality, making altogether twenty-two 
quarts of delicious fruit from the 17 Helen Davis plants. I 
consider the Helen Davis one of the greatest varieties ever 
originated. 
Wishing you continued success in your great work, I remain 
as ever, Sincerely yours. 
George W. Clark. 
Kellogg's Cultural Methods Perfect

Gentlemen: I have been receiving your book, "Great Crops 
of Strawberries and How to Grow Them," for several years, 
and I always have been impressed with your cultural methods 
and with the photo-engravings of your farm scenes which 
you have shown in these books, and I am pleased to say that 
when I visited your farm this month I was very much im- 
pressed with what I saw there. Indeed, your cultural methods 
are much more perfect than what you claim in your book. In 
fact, they are the most perfect that I ever have seen, and I 
can say that it was the largest field of strawberry plants that 
I have ever seen, and everything is perfectly systematized. 
I want to thank you for the courteous treatment extended 
to me while I was your guest. I also want to assure you that 
it will be a great pleasure on my part to recommend your 
plants to any of my friends who wish to engage in the straw- 
berry business. I am sure that if all strawberry growers 
could visit your farm and see what you are doing you would 
get their orders. Very truly yours, 
John M. O'Dwyer. 
Every Claim Made Good

Gentlemen: I am very glad to have had the privilege of 
going-over your great farm while in the North. 1 am glad to 
say that I found everything just as you claim it to be. Not 
only is it the largest enterprise of its kind in the United 
States, but I never saw finer plants anywhere than those 
growing on your farm. I can heartily recommend anyone 
who is in need of plants to buy Kellogg's.

The Most Perfect Methods Practiced

Gentlemen: Have reached home safely, and wish to express 
my sincere thanks for your courtesies on the occasion of my 
recent visit to your farms at Three Rivers. 
I have been growing berries and vegetables under intensive 
methods for many years, and have made it a point to travel 
and study the lines of culture employed by the best gardeners 
everywhere. I spent nine months recently in a tour of the 
West, visiting every important irrigation project in that 
great section, and I am familiar with the best work in the
