STRAWBERRY GARDEN 
If you do not grow 
berries for market, plant 
the BEST in your home 
garden. Here they are:

Dorsett was originated by the U. S. Dept, of Agriculture about 
the same time as Fairfax (see page 31). It is an offspring of 
Premier—an extra-early, self-pollenizing, standard variety. Out of 
thousands of new Standard Strawberry varieties, we select Dorsett 
as the best money-maker for commercial growers. Our judgment 
is based on the following facts and figures: 
Planted beside Premier (the commercial standard of excellence), 
Dorsett outruns this famous variety under all conditions, making 
a wide, solid fruiting row. The plants are large and healthy, with¬ 
standing drought, excessive rains, and frost better than all other 
standard varieties. They are so "peppy" that poor soil doesn't 
hold them back. Dorsett plants possess extra long roots and heavy 
crowns, which furnish the vitality to set a larger crop of fruit than 
Premier, and RIPEN EVERY BERRY EVENLY, MATURING THEM 
TO GREATER AVERAGE SIZE and GREATER BEAUTY than Premier. 
This means a long picking season and higher selling price. 
In firmness of flesh and skin Dorsett again ranks ahead of Premier. The 
berries DO NOT bruise, fade or DARKEN even after being held several days 
or shipped long distances. THIS IS THE BIG MONEY-MAKING FEATURE— 
for buyers feel that because Dorsett berries stay light and bright in color 
they will KEEP LONGER. They always look FRESH-PICKED, that's why folks 
pay more for them. This light color is an added advantage to the large 
commercial grower, who cannot always keep the crop picked promptly. 
In actual tests Dorsett berries placed on eastern and central markets last 
summer brought higher prices than all other varieties. By comparison the 
AVERAGE SELLING PRICE was 65c per crate higher than Premier and 89c 
higher per crate than other common sorts. Why not cut out some of the 
older varieties, double your Strawberry acreage with Dorsett and Fairfax 
and "pocket" the above difference in price.
