his patch is perfect. He has grown Kellogg plants for many year- and is proud of the fact that he grows them the Ivellogg Way. 
stenographers to take care of the correspondence 
which comes to this department. The questions 
are answered by men who have had experience 
concerning the very things you inquire about. 
And let us say that there are very few questions 
pertaining to the growing and marketing of 
strawberries that cannot be answered through 
this department to your entire satisfaction and 
to your profit. One thing is certain : we are not 
going to advise anyone to do anything that would 
not be to his best interest. 
Letters of appreciation which now come to this 
department equal in number and some days ex- 
ceed the number of letters containing questions. 
This alone makes it safe for us to say that this 
Service is accomplishing what it was intended to 
accomplish, and that is to assist our customers 
in growing larger crops and better berries than 
ever have been grown before. And the service 
we give also has had much to do in aiding grow- 
ers to get better prices for their berries. 
When we receive an order for plants we fully 
realize that our obligations to that customer have 
just begun. We not only give each and every 
customer a dollar's worth of plants for each 
dollar received, but we also give him an equal 
value in service, and whether questions come 
with the order for plants or months or years 
afterwards the questions are answered with the 
same promptness and interest. 
Our Free Service begins with you whenever 
you begin asking for information, and it con- 
tinues indefinitely or until you are able to solve 
your own problems and you find it unnecessary 
to ask for further information and advice. 
The members of our service department are on 
the job six days in the week and fifty-two weeks 
in the year. We are very busy at times, but 
never too busy to answer questions with reason- 
able promptness and to show our appreciation to 
those who have placed their confidence in us. 
The principal object of our Free Service De- 
partment is to advise our customers on all points 
pertaining to strawberry growing and to aid them 
in eliminating expensive mistakes. Of course, 
we realize that it is impossible to accomplish 
anything worth while without making some 
minor mistakes, but with our help, combined with 
good judgment on the part of our customers, mis- 
takes may be reduced to the minimum. 
Let us repeat that we not only invite you to 
send us your order, but we also invite you to take 
full advantage of our Free Service Bureau, and if 
we may have the pleasure of helping you increase 
your profits, we shall feel well repaid for the 
efforts extended in your behalf. 
Grow Strawberries and Get the 
Boys Interested 
MOST boys like to grow money-making crops, 
and the farmer could do nothing better than 
to get his boys interested in the growing of 
strawberries because strawberries give quicker 
returns and larger profits than any other crop. 
One acre of strawberries properly grown will 
yield a greater net profit than twenty acres of 
corn or wheat. When a boy grows strawberries, 
he not only learns how to grow this best of all 
fruits, but he also gets a business training when 
picking and marketing the berries. When a boy 
learns how to grow, pick, pack and market 
strawberries he soon will build up a business and 
a reputation that will be worth a fortune to him. 
A great many boys are leaving the farm and go- 
ing to the cities because they do not like to grow
