GREAT CROPS OF STRAWBERRIES AND HOW TO GROW THEM 
Copyright 1915 by R. M. Kellogg Co., Three Kivers, Mich. 
STRAWBERRIES GROWN IN BEDS 
'THIS is a back-yard scene of one of our Michigan customers. The proud owner is a telegraph operator for the Michigan Cen- 
* tral R. R. Company and he gets much pleasure and profit from his strawberry bed. Each bed is about si.<c feet wide and 
tliirty feet in length, and is surrounded with twelve inch plank. You will note that the foliage grows nearly a foot above the 
plank, which makes the entire growth of the plants nearly two feet high. Three rows of plants are set in each bed, and the 
plants are allowed to make runners until there are enough plants to cover the entire bed as shown in picture. These two beds 
have fruited for two years, and have produced all the berries a large family could use, both summer and winter, and enough 
surplus hemes were sold to pay all expenses, such as cost of plants and of sugar and cans used in putting up the winter supply. 
berries the year 'round without cost. With such 
a garden you will have big, red, delicious straw- 
berries picked fresh from the vines from May 
until November, and canned berries, jam and 
Preserves throughout the winter. The surplus 
erries easily may be sold for enough money to 
pay for the garden and to buy the sugar and cans 
used in putting up your winter supply. 
Why should you pay 15c to 20c per quart for 
common strawberries when you may grow the 
Kellogg kind yourself right in your own garden 
or back-yard? If you were to buy the strawber- 
ries that a Kellogg garden produces, they would 
cost you anywhere from $50 to $125, depending 
upon the size of the garden, and you know that 
strawberries grown right atyour own door, picked 
fresh from the vines when fully ripe, are much 
better and more delicious than berries that you 
buy, no matter what price you pay for them. 
When your strawberry garden is in full bloom it 
will be a veritable flower garden, and when the 
vines are loaded with big, red berries, it will be 
more attractive than a flower garden. We be- 
lieve in both flowers and strawberries, and any- 
one who has a garden plot certainly should grow 
both.
