PREMIER 
The Most Popular Early Berry 
Blakemore. 
Cowgill, Missouri, 
March 30, 1935 
Gentlemen: 
I received the Strawberry Plants last 
Thursday and I want to thank you for 
such nice plants. They were the best I 
ever got from anywhere. 
MRS. GENEVIA RHEA. 
The exceptionally satisfactory and unusually 
profitable crops secured from Premier have made 
it first choice among successful strawberry growers 
in most all sections of the country. For fifteen years 
it has been the standard of excellence by which 
other strawberries have been judged. 
Premier seems to be the nearest frostproof of 
any variety grown, because of its great hardiness 
and persistent blooming. The plants are sturdy, 
healthy, and long rooted, making them drought re' 
sistant. The vines bear an enormous crop of large, 
uniform sized berries, while the berry is bright red clear to 
the center, is perfect in shape, and ripens without green tips. 
The fruit presents a very pleasing appearance on the market 
and has an established reputation for top prices. Our Premier 
stock is guaranteed true'tO'name. It has proven itself for 
many years in many places. 
BLAKEMORE 
Champion of Long Distance Shippers 
The Blakemore is a cross of Missionary and Premier originated and 
developed by the United States Department of Agriculture. Blakemore 
is extra early, ripening four to five days before Premier. Berries are 
bright red, with tough skin, firm flesh, and a high'spirited, tart flavor. 
Blakemore yields as much fruit as Premier but berries are not quite as 
large. They mature to a pretty pointed shape and bright color. Be' 
cause of its firm flesh and tough skin the Blakemore has proven a 
wonderful long distance shipper and will remain 
on the vines a considerable time after ripe with' 
out becoming soft. Plants are vigorous and 
produce runners freely. Especially recom' 
mended where weather conditions or lack of 
help prevent keeping berries picked close.
