GREAT CROPS OF STRAWBERRIES AND HOW TO GROW THEM

A KELLOGG PEDIGREE MOTHER PLANT 
(Reproducing: Itself) 
'T'HIS illustration proves our statement that a perfectly developed mother plant will not deteriorate when producing: runner 
* plants, and that the runner plants do inherit the vit^or and characteristics of the mother plant. Note how vigorously the 
mother plant continues to grow: also note the heavy runner cords, and the strong: and well-developed runner plants. This 
photo-engravinjf, the same as all other engravings in this book, was made from an actual photograph, and represents an 
average mother plant, and runner plants grown in our propagating fields. These are the type of runner plants that we send 
to our customers, and which constitute their mother plants: and when properly handled, will develop to perfection just as did 
the mother plants which produced them. Such plants as these cost a trifle more than common plants, but are worth far more. 
tion of immense quantities of fruit of the 
highest quality. This large and costly instal- 
lation, which doubtless will be followed by 
large additions of the irrigation system as 
the years go by, is only another evidence of 
the purpose of the Kellogg Company to serve 
the men and women who find in strawberry 
growing a generous source of pleasure and 
profit. 
Kellogg's "Big Four" Varieties 
TN all of our thirty-two years of strawberry 
■■■ experience, we never have seen four va- 
rieties which possess all the desirable quali- 
ties, and which so nearly approach strawber- 
ry perfection, as Kellogg's Premier, Dr. Bur- 
rill, Magic Gem and Kellogg's Prize. For 
years we have been searching for four va- 
rieties which would completely cover the 
strawberry season, and this Big Four gives 
us a better combination than we ever expect- 
ed to secure. 
Kellogg's Premier is, without any excep- 
tion, the best extra-early variety ever pro- 
duced. It is unlike any other variety of its 
season. It surpasses all other extra-early 
varieties in productiveness, size, color and 
quality of fruit. 
Dr. Burrill is the most ideal early variety 
ever offered to strawberry growers. It is 
sure to hold first place among early varieties. 
When we say that it surpasses the world- 
famed Senator Dunlap at every point, we 
have said all that is necessary to convince 
everyone that it is the world's future early 
variety. The Dr. Burrill strawberry crowns 
the efforts of J. R. Reasoner, who has spent 
twenty-five years of his life in order to pro- 
duce a variety ideal in all respects, and all 
who have seen this variety in fruit, declare 
that he has succeeded in attaining his ideal. 
Magic Gem has such a long fruiting season 
in Idaho, where it was originated, that it is 
difficult to name its season. It begins fruit- 
ing medium early and continues to bear fine 
luscious berries as late as any other standard
