To estimate the number of plants required for an acre, at any given distance 
multiply the distance between the rows by the distance between the plants which 
will give the number of square feet allotted to each plant, and divide the number 
of square feet in an acre (43,560) by this number. The qnotent will be the num- 
ber of plants required. 
In conclusion, I wish to say, the following varieties I have cultivated in field 
culture. Some sorts that do wel 1 here may not be a success in some other loca- 
tion, but it is not my desire to mislead or disappoint any one. My strawberry 
plants are grown on new ground, in solid blocks of varieties, expressly for plants 
and will be taken up solid, not weakened runners, that are sold at low prices. 
I take pleasure in recommending to my patrons the list of advertisers gracing 
my pages with tlieir ads collectively. I can, from business acquaintance with 
them, say, should you favor them with your confidence, it will not be misplaced.
