STRAWBERRIES 
Pamphlet on Strawberry and Bush Fruit Culture FREE, on application. 
The fruiting plant that stands the severe conditions 
of Montana's chmate with splendid credit to itself is 
the Strawberry. For the space it occupies in the gar- 
den it is hard to find anything to equal it and our 
patrons show a constantly increasing appreciation of 
this fact. 
Strawberries are either Perfect or Imperfect flow- 
ered. The varieties listed below are all of the Perfect 
flowered type. 
We desire to call especial attention to the Everbear- 
ing varieties quoted. They should prove of more than 
usual merit for both home culture and market purposes. 
Senator Dunlap, P. — Hardy, strong grower, prolilic, plaiit- 
maker, good bearer of firm berries thai stands trans- 
portation well. The best early, mid-season berry for 
Montana and more generally planted than any other. 
\Vm. Belt, P. — No berry sufficiently hardy to sband our 
high elevations is equal to this in flavor. Plants are 
good sized and productive. A splendid mid-season 
berry, sure to please all who grow it who like fine fruit. 
Glen Mary, P. — Does well in Montana in the more fav- 
ored locaijtie.s where it produces a good crop of fruit 
on plants somewhat similar to Senator Dunlap.

red "fruit, delicious flavor. A high grade berry.

Everbearing Strawberries 
This type of Strawberry is becoming a great favorite 
in the northwest. Their extreme hardiness, combined 
with their long bearing season, make them doubly valu- 
able, not only to the commercial grower for the market, 
but also for the private garden. 
Progressive, P. — One of the first of the type to be intro- 
duced. A fine well-colored berry, of delicious flavor,. A 
good shippei-. 
Superb, P. — .\nolher splendid variety, superb not only in 
name but in e\eiy good quality which goes to make a 
fine strawberry. A good shipper.

Tomato Plants 
This well known summer fruit is fast becoming a 
staple article of diet in Montana. With the exception 
of the higher altitudes, they can be readily grown and 
with success. During the present crisis, and in fact 
as a staple article, they should be grown far more than 
they are, large as is the quantity now planted. As in 
the older sections of the country, most parts of Mon- 
tana, it will be found practical to grow sufficient quan- 
tities of this delicious and healthful fruil for canning 
purposes, as well as for fresh table consumption. This 
will be found a very practical method of reducing the 
so-called high tost of living. 
Number of plants required per acre — Staked or up- 
right method, 3 feet in the row and 5 feet between 
rows— 2904. 
Pot grown plants while more expensive are far more 
satisfactory, and when only a few are to be planted 
we strongly advise the pot grown.

climate:
