GREAT CROPS OF STRAWBERRIES AND HOW TO GROW THEM 
R. M. Kellogg Co., Three Rivers, Mich. 
Sample and Aroma, with Jar of Sugar 
HERE we show in most attractive manner how to serve strawberries for breakfast. The few berries shown upon the 
large plate indicate something of the size of the berries which are produced by the Kellogg strain of Sample and 
Aroma. For many years we have been working with these two varieties and have built up a strain of pure-bred plants 
of great fruiting power. We have a large stock of these universally popular varieties and hope to be able to supply all 
of our customers with them. 
taking care of the strawberry crop. When 
one individual combines these two occupa- 
tions he has an all-year-round business which 
gives him a constant revenue. The demand 
for his poultry, eggs and strawberries is al- 
ways greater than the supply, so that he finds 
an eager market always awaiting his products 
and ready to pay high prices for them. 
Many a comfortable fortune has been made, 
and is being made, by those who employ this 
most effective combination, and we hope to 
see the number vastly increased. 
Our New Method of Marking Out the Rows 
AFTER we get the cowpeas, manure and soil thoroughly incorporated and pulverized to the depth of the plowing, we 
proceed to prepare for the marker. First goes the heavy steel roller, weighted down with big stones; following the 
roller is a leveling device which breaks up the smooth surface left by the roller and fills in the horse tracks and all other 
uneven places. This in turn is followed by a regular corn-planter, which makes the marks exactly four feet apart, and 
leaves a slight rise on the surface. After the field is marked in this way we go "crossways" with a six whccl marker, 
with wheels twenty-eight inches apart, as shown on page 31. The plants arc set at the intersections of the lines, which 
places them four feet by twenty-eight inches apart, allowing ample space to cultivate in both directions until runners
