GREAT CROPS OF STRAWBERRIES AND HOW TO GROW THEM 47 
R. M. Kellogg Co., Three Rivers, Mich. 
Miller, B. (Male) 
MEDIUM TO LATE. Bisexual. It would be 
difficult to conceive of a more beautiful berry 
than the Miller, as a glance at the illustration 
above will indicate. The form can be seen, but 
the dark-red color, which gives to this fruit a 
peculiar charm, can only be appreciated when the 
fruit itself is seen. Beautiful in form and color 
as it is, its rich flavor fully equals its other qual- 
ities. The meat is of a smootn, melting texture, 
exceedingly juicy, rich and sweet. In productive- 
ness the Miller stands among the leaders for 
home use and family trade. It is rather too del- 
icate for long-distance shipping. This is the 
eighth year we have had Miller under selection 
and restriction, and without doubt our strain of 
Miller plants stands unequalled. The Miller is 
not particular as tc soils, but succeeds whei-ever 
grown. The foliage is distinct from that of all 
other varieties. In color it is a light green, it 
has extra-large, coarse leaves and grows excep- 
tionally tall. Do not fail to order some of this 
variety. 
beauties. The dibble is simply indispensable."

East Moline, May 7, 1909. "I received my 
plants on the 4th inst. in fine form and will want 
three thousand more next spring." 
Harry Hincher. 
Plymouth, April 29, 1909. "Your plants are 
the finest I ever saw, so you may expect some 
more orders from me in the future."

Aurora, April 28, 1909. "I am pleased with 
your plants. I don't want plants from anyone 
else." Elizabeth A. Harris. 
Willow Hill, Feb. 1, 1909. "I sold in 1908 
from the 4500 plants bought of you in the spring 
of 1907, one hundred and seventy-seven dollars 
and thirty-five cents worth, after a freeze seem- 
ingly had destroyed the patch. Out of a cluster 
of bloom of eighty-four buds eighty-two were 
Enormous, P. (Female) 
MEDIUM TO LATE. Pistillate. As its name 
indicates this variety grows an enormous berry, 
and the big red fellows grow so thickly that the 
vines are a mass of red. The illustration above 
is that of a typical Enormous berry, with its broad 
wedge-like shape. In color the berry is crimson, 
in which are imbedded dark yellow seeds. The 
flavor of Enormous equals in excellence the size 
of the berry, and the meat is juicy and rich. It 
is unusually popular in all markets for the fam- 
ily trade. This is the fifteenth year we have 
bred this great variety, and the best test of its 
high value is its increasing popularity with those 
who have grown it longest. The calyx is light 
green and lies flat on the berry, and the stem 
remains fresh long after the berries are picked, 
thus aiding it to retain an attractive appearance 
long after the fruit has reached the market. 
destroyed, but they came again and bore a big 
yield. I have always been pleased with plants 
bought of you. " J. L. Dillmon. 
Champaign, April 30, 1909. "Strawberry 
plants came O. K. I thank you for the splendid 
plants." Mrs. Elizabeth Barto.

Spencer, Feb. 5, 1909. "I bought plants of 
you last spring— Bederwoods, Belts and Dornans 
—and notwithstanding the severe drought I lost 
only a small percentage of them. I am an en- 
thusiastic advocate of your Thoroughbred system. 
No need for me to wish you success— you have 
already arrived!" W. S. Coffey. 
Dana, Feb. 8, 1909. "I attribute my success 
in the business of strawberry growing to the use 
of Kellogg's thoroughbred plants. I have been 
using then for fifteen years and have invariably 
had a paying crop. The plants are so strong 
and vigorous that it is no trouble to get them to 
grow." J. 0. Staats. 
Pleasant Lake, April 3, 1909. "I ordered plants 
of you last spring for one acre, and I now feel 
safe in saying that we have as fine, if not the
