SMML FRUliTi 
CULTURE OF BUSH FRUITS 
Planting on a slope with a northern exposure provides 
cooler conditions which is best for bush fruits. The 
ground should be well supplied with humus because such 
soils hold moisture better. That is also important. Plant 
bushes about two inches lower than they stood in the 
nursery. Some plant in shallow ditches and fill in ground 
later thus securing a deeper covering. Keep the soil well 
mulched by frequent shallow cultivations. 
Our plants are sturdy well developed specimens. There 
is a big difference in the quality of plants and we ask 
you to consider the character of our stocks when com¬ 
paring prices.
