Would you like to have ripe, luscious Strawberries in your yard every day THIS YEAR, from July until late November? With Emlong's 
super-powered, bearing-age Gem and Mastodon plants, strawberry growing becomes highly enjoyable and profitable to the home owner. 
MANY USES 
You can "tuck away" two hundred or more 
Strawberry plants in any yard. If you have 
no garden space, plant them 12 inches apart 
as a border to walks, drives, shrub plantings, 
or in the rock garden. They delight the chil¬ 
dren and attract song birds to your home, 
more than paying for themselves in decora¬ 
tive value, to say nothing of the saving on 
fruit bills. Everbearers are especially desir¬ 
able for the small home grounds because of 
their quick-bearing and long-fruiting ability. 
QUICK BEARING 
The right time to plant is in March, April or 
May. Plants start blooming as soon as they 
become well established. Mrs. B. P. Shuey, 
Boise, Idaho, says her plants were set April 
first and had ripe berries by May thirtieth. 
They continued to bear until stopped by 
severe November frosts. 
BIG BERRIES 
Gem berries are round and plump and Mas¬ 
todon berries inclined to be pointed. Both 
varieties mature to large size before ripen¬ 
ing. Nine berries top a pint box and twelve 
top a quart. Gem color is bright scarlet, 
Mastodon deep varnished red. These varie¬ 
ties appeal to all, as some folks prefer light 
and some dark berries. 
QUALITY-FLAVOR 
HEAVY YIELD 
Some customers say Mastodon can't be beat. 
Others say Gem outyields them. They report 
yields of 200 to 350 quarts of berries the first 
season from 200 Everbearing plants. Grown 
in matted rows they bear a second crop the 
next June and a third crop the second Fall. 
Three crops in about 18 months! Leroy Lutes, 
Oakford, Ill., says, "Your Gem Everbearers 
are phenomenal producers. Bore a June crop 
the first year and started a second crop by 
July 15th!" 
EASY TO GROW 
There's nothing difficult about strawberry 
growing. We furnish easily followed direc¬ 
tions with each order. Our vigorous, long- 
rooted plants thrive from coast to coast. Set 
plants 1 Vz x 3 feet apart for garden culture. 
If space is limited set them 12 inches apart 
each way and grow them in hills. For field 
culture they are planted 1 Vz x 3 Vz feet apart. 
About 8000 plants are required per acre. 
BIG PROFITS 
Would you spend $50.00 to make $500.00 or 
more? If you are a farmer or suburban prop¬ 
erty owner you should easily make that 
much per acre the first year. Good straw¬ 
berries sell at 25£ per quart during Fall 
months. Supply your local and nearby mar¬ 
kets and make a fine income all Fall. An 
immediate profit on your investment!
