Supplement Your Salary 
The work is easy, healthy, pleasant, and can be 
done at odd chances. To the man who works in an 
office all day, it will be an especial pleasure to get 
out in the garden and make money while he takes 
his much-needed exercise. A Strawberry garden 
offers the best possible chance for the man with a 
little land, to supplement his salary. You can sell 
fancy berries at a good price anytime and with a 
little common sense and good plants, you can grow 
fancy berries—and make some extra money. Let 
us help you do it. 
A Family Business 
The small farmer with a large family and little 
land can grow berries profitably, because Straw¬ 
berries give a larger return per acre than almost 
any other farm crop. Again, it provides healthy, 
agreeable work for the children, right at home, 
working together with father or mother. They can 
help and will be glad to do it. Ask them about it.

Strawberries in Young Orchard 
There is no better way to utilize the ground in a 
young orchard than by growing Strawberries. (See 
picture.) Make the berries pay for growing the 
orchard. Berries give a quick return and will bring 
in money while you are waiting for the orchard to 
come into bearing. They not only help pay for the 
orchard, but they are good for the orchard. Straw¬ 
berries should be thoroughly cultivated and there 
is nothing better for the orchard than this. Tillage 
is manure and, the more we cultivate, the better 
both Strawberries and orchards will be. 
Double Real-Estate Value 
Strawberries increase the value of your farm.' 
There is no better way to dispose of real estate at 
a good price, than by setting it to Strawberries. 
Not only can you get a much higher price for such 
land, but it is much easier to sell. If you doubt the 
added value a Strawberry patch affords, try to 
buy some land set to Strawberries, just before they 
begin to fruit. Here's the experience of one man: 
February 3, 1916, Merrimack County, N. H. 
Dear Sirs: The only Strawberry plants I remember were 
from your concern, some few years ago when I thought I would 
like to raise them for money, but after everything was ready 
One of our customers picking Dunlap at the rate of 
about 1,500 quarts per acre at a single picking, and 
ready to make delivery to a nearby town. 
for a heavy crop the following spring, a gentleman came along 
and bought my farm. Presumably the acre of Strawberries 
sold the place, and at a handsome profit. Yours respectfully, 
J. T. Turcott. 
But, even if the price is higher, it is a good propo¬ 
sition for the buyer. He gets the land and a valuable 
crop just coming on that will help him greatly in 
paying for the land, or in equipping his farm. Real- 
estate men and others often plant orchards to help 
sell land. Strawberries would be just as good, or 
even better, on small tracts of land already quite 
valuable. 
OUR PLANTS ABOVE REPROACH 
We are not much on testimonials, but can say that your 
plants formerly have been as near perfect as any we have ever 
seen and came as near all living as any we ever bought, and 
your packing and count we consider above reproach. — John 
T. Elrod, Ripley County, Ind., January 18, 1916.
