ORIGIN. 
The Wayzata was discovered in an experimental plat of Everbear- 
ers we had growing ten years ago. The name Wayzata was given to 
it by the public who asked for the "Wayzata" strawberries. We 
have no other way of knowing exact origin. 
MERITS AND CHARACTER1CS. 
PLANT—Has dark green leafed foliage. This characterist ic has 
proven by extensive testing to be of great benefit to any straw¬ 
berry plant, making the plant disease resistent. This with the 
healthy abundant root system supplies ample food for a heavy 
yield of exceptional fruit. More hardy than other varieties in 
withstanding severe cold and severe drought. 
BERRIES—Immense size—bright color—have polished appearance 
—generally wedge-shaped, making them an easy packer and give s 
them an attractive appearance in any container. 
FLAVOR—Far excells that of any other strawberry. Wins all 
who taste it. 
KEEPING QUALITIES—Retains color, gloss and firmness several 
days after picking. 
YIELD OF FRUIT—Outyields all other varieties both in quantity 
as well as in ’ 1 dollar’ '-profits. Produced for us in the last 
five dry seasons from $700 to as high as $1200 per acre. This 
is possible because the Wayzata brings from $1.00 to $2.00 more 
per 24 pint case than all everbearing strawberries including Gem 
and Mastodon. 
RUNNER PRODUCTION. 
A great deal has been said about the Wayzata not being a plant 
maker. Through ten years of growing and experimenting with this 
variety I have developed a method of fertilizing and care of 
these plants whereby I have been able to make them produce from 
75,000 to 150 000 plants per acre through the driest seasons we 
have ever experienced in Minnesota with but little irrigation. 
My pamphlet on this culture will be sent free with each order of 
Wayzatas. The Wayzata will grow equally well on clay, sand, or 
muck (peat) soils. 
AN ALL-SEASON BERRY. 
Why set several varieties of strawberries when the Wayzata will 
give you an all season crop from June until the first hard freete 
in the Fall?- In setting spring varieties you have to waiH: from 
April until June of the next year for your first berries. In this 
Northern district your blossoms on these plants may be caught 
with a late frost and you will have no crop whatever. Wayzatas 
set in the spring will start fruiting in July the first season 
and continue until the first hard frost. The next spring they 
will give you a good crop of the finest flavored berries you can 
grow. This same patch with proper care after the June crop is
