WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THESE PLANTS? 
Fairfax was originated by the U. S. Department of Agriculture 
about 1923, and given to nurserymen for distribution to the public 
about four years ago. It is an early fruiting, self-pollenizing, stand¬ 
ard type. Every year proves more definitely the superior value of 
this berry, not only for fancy dessert purposes, but because it meets 
every requirement of a successful commercial sort. 
Fairfax produces more plants than Premier, making a solid fruit¬ 
ing row during the severe drought of 1934, and during the very 
wet season experienced in eastern states two years ago. It apparent¬ 
ly thrives on all kinds of soil, in every part of the country, and 
no frost injury has ever been noticed. The plants are immense, 
standing 7 to 8 inches off the ground when mature. They have 
"double crowns" and extra long roots, which indicate EXTRA 
VITALITY, both in plant growth and fruiting ability. (See single 
Fairfax plant on page 22). The large, dark foliage is very resistant 
to disease and retains its vigor and luster throughout the season. 
In YIELD, Fairfax equals Premier. It starts ripening about the 
same time, but MATURES EVERY BERRY TO FULL SIZE, right to 
the last picking, which Premier often fails to do. This makes for a 
LONGER PICKING SEASON of LARGE, HIGH-QUALITY BERRIES, 
and EXTRA PROFITS for the grower. A uniform firmness prevails 
both in the flesh and skin, giving Fairfax a SHIPPING QUALITY 
equal to Premier. 
But the more BRILLIANT APPEARANCE and LARGER SIZE of the 
fruit make buyers so enthusiastic about Fairfax, that they gladly 
pay higher prices for these berries. Everyone is willing to pay extra 
for berries that LOOK BETTER, TASTE BETTER and ARE BETTER! 
The high standard of quality set by Fairfax will result in increased 
profits for berry growers—get your share of that profit by planting
