STRAW 
Cultural Directions 
Late March or April is the chosen time to plant straw¬ 
berries. Fall planting usually is a complete failure. Plant 
early to avoid failure. 
Strawberries respond to good soil, and you should choose 
a fertile location or garden plot, free of sod and weeds, as 
white grubs invariably follow these. Prepare the ground 
very thoroughly. 
The rows should be drawn three and a half to four feet 
apart on strong ground and the plants set fifteen to twenty 
inches apart in the row. 
CULTIVATION 
For summer care keep the ground constantly stirred 
and free of weeds. Moisture preservation by dust mulch 
will conserve the vitality of your plants and produce a fine 
matted row. Keep the hoe and cultivator busy. 
Winter protection by mulching with clean straw after 
the ground is frozen is advised. Do not apply too heavily 
and smother the plants. Leave on during the fruiting sea¬ 
son, as it conserves moisture and keeps the berries clean.
