our customers say and what we 
have said, the half has not been 
told. 
W. R. Randall of Illinois sold $67.85 
worth of berries from 500 Progressive 
everbearing plants the same season 
plants were set, besides supplying his 
family with all the berries they could 
use. 
Gus Gunderson of Minnesota writing 
us under date of Jan. 27, 1916 says: 
"The Superbs I bought of you last 
spring paid for themselves and for the 
work also. They certainly are a great 
berry. Sold them for 30 and 35 cents 
per quart. Picked the last berries the 
first of November and this is way up 
north. Am thinking of setting 3000 
more Superbs this coming spring." 
Under date of July 6, 1916, Mrs. L. 
M. Parkhurst of Connecticut wrote us 
as follows: "We set 50 Kellogg Pro- 
gressive everbearing plants last spring 
and are well pleased with them. They 
have supplied our table with the most 
delicious fruit I ever ate." 
S. O. and A. F. Titus of New Hamp- 
shire sold at wholesale, from August 
20 to October 20, 1915, $175.00 worth of 
berries from 1900 Superb everbearing 
plants set in the spring of 1915. This 
was at the rate of $800.00 per acre the 
same season plants were set. Their 
last picking was made November 11. 
R. A. Cable of Colorado sold $120.00 
worth of berries besides all they could 
use, from 2000 Kellogg Progressive 
everbearing plants the same season 
plants were set. This was done in spite 
of the fact that the plants were visited 
by a hard freeze in May, and suffered 
from two severe hail storms. 
C. N. Broylea of Missouri advises us 
that he gathered 100 quarts of berries 
from 75 Kellogg Progressive everbear- 
ers the same season the plants were set. 
W. F. Franzen of Nebraska sold $39.60 
worth of berries, besides all his family 
could use and what were given away to 
friends, from 400 Kellogg Progressive 
everbearing plants the same season 
plants were set. His last picking was 
made November 7.

WE do not refer to elevators, 
balloons or flying machines. 
When these go up they always 
come down again. We refer to 
prices on all commodities, which 
during the past few years have 
continued to go up with no indica- 
tions of ever coming down again. 
We are now paying for fertilizer 
more than double the price we 
paid a few years ago. The wages 
of both our farm and office help 
have doubled, and all tools and 
farm machinery, and in fact every- 
thing used in our offices and on 
our farms, has advanced in price 
from 50 to 100 percent with the sin- 
gle exception of postage stamps. 
Under these conditions, there is 
just one of two things to be done. 
We must either use less of the 
building materials which are re- 
quired to produce perfectly devel-
