A Basket of Premier 
I berries ever introduced Premier seems to be more 
I I nearly ideal than ary we have ever grown. It is beyond all 
question the best early variety ever offered the American public. For several 
years now in spite of manifold adverse conditions it has produced enormous 
crops and they have brought the highest market price. In other years when 
other kinds were failing on account of lack of moisture Premier was still 
on the job. It is a good grower, making plenty of stocky, heavily rooted 
plants, but not inclined to get too thick, you always have a bed that is just 
about right. It is tremendously productive of good sized berries, and no 
matter how many kinds there are in the market Premier always tops them all 
in price. The most remarkable feature is the fact that it keeps so well, for 
three or four days after picking it holds up in texture and appearance to a 
most remarkable degree. It does not matter where you may live we can 
recommend Premier, as reports from all sections agree in placing it at the 
head of the list and our prediction is that it will remain there a long time. 
The only weakness it has is a failure to ship well when there is heavy rain 
during the ripening season. 
Dear Sirs: Nelson County, Ky., 
A friend of mine heard how fine my Premier berries were, and asked me 
to order plants for him, I told him it was almost too late; but he said he would 
take a chance, didn’t want to wait until next spring, so if you have them, 
please send them at once by parcel post to W. D. King. 
Yours truly, W. V. Stallard. 
YOU CAN PAY MORE BUT YOU CANNOT GET BETTER
