GREETINGS, 1934 
In our last year’s catalog we expressed the hope that 1933 would be a better all 
around season than 1932. The depression just kept on and kept getting worse and 
worse. We are hoping now that the worst is past. However, our strawberry plant 
crop for the spring of 1934 is very much better than it was for 1933< and very much 
better plants. We had a terrific drouth and our fruit crop was very light but we had 
a number of light rains in August and September. Because most of our fields are on 
exceptionally good land they withstood the drouth well. 
We have a very good supply of very good plants. The strawberry plant crop 
throughout most sections of U. S. is short because of the fact they had a drouth in 
many places. Perhaps not as severe in some places as here. At the same time 
prices must be a little higher because we must pay more for wages the coming spring 
than we have been paying. Then we feel if we do not sell all our plants this year 
and because of the prospect of a short berry crop we will get a better price for 
berries than for many years past. Regardless of the depression, people must eat and 
will eat a certain amount of berries. 
We think there is as much show for profit in growing strawberries as any other 
crop. Anyway everybody who owns a plot of ground should plant strawberries for 
their own satisfaction. There is nothing as satisfying as fresh strawberries picked 
from your own patch. There will be a shortage of small fruits of all kinds for the 
next few years because people generally have not been planting. 
We have a good supply of good plants of almost everything quoted in this price 
list. We are just a little different from most catalog nurserymen. We grow almost 
all our stock, especially strawberries, blackberries, etc. It is our ambition to supply 
our customers with the best plants. Satisfaction always guaranteed.
