Imperial 
The Improved Champion. Introduced 
by us. Originated in Michigan, being 
secured through a cross with Champion, 
which it somewhat resembles. A deep 
rooted plant, which is the secret of its 
great success, for it is able to get plenty 
of moisture during the dry summer and 
autumn months, so that it keeps right 
on growing big, thrifty berries, when 
other kinds run small and dry up. Al¬ 
ready Imperial has demonstrated most 
conclusively that for real Strawberry 
flavor, firmness and good keeping qual¬ 
ities it is superior to most other Ever¬ 
bearers. 
Champion 
An improved Progressive that is 
undoubtedly grown more extensively 
today than any other Everbearer. 
One that has been tried and tested, 
and in a few short years came to the 
front as a proven and worth-while 
variety that is a dependable source 
of profit and pleasure, year in and 
year out. Champion has never had | 
a crop failure—something unusual, 1 
and something to bear in mind when = 
ordering your Everbearers.
