for and fertilized, you can get a crop of fruit in the fall of the first year, a crop 
the next spring and another crop in the fall of the second year. Thus you get 
three crops of strawberries in the same space of time that you usually got but 
one. Some varieties are more adapted for growing the three crops than others. 
These strawberries bear their main fall crop the first year, the year that you set 
them out. Common strawberries bear their first crop in the spring of the sec¬ 
ond year. These fall strawberries should not be confused with varieties that 
occasionally bear a crop in the fall of the second year. The true fall straw¬ 
berries, such as we advertise, always bear their best fall crop in the fall of the 
first year. We have spent much time and effort in looking up the true fall straw¬ 
berry, and we find that the following varieties are the only ones yet introduced 
that can be depended upon to bear a crop of berries in the fall of the first 
year that they are set out. Varieties like ‘‘Oregon Everbearing/’ “Patagonia” 
and “Dew” are not to be depended upon in the East and most sections of the 
country, to bear a fall crop the year the plants are set. If you wish to learn all 
about the wonderful fall bearing strawberries, get my book on Strawberry Cul¬ 
ture. It tells the whole story, is beautifully illustrated with numerous pictures 
of the fruit and plants. It costs 50c in paper cover, or $1.00 in cloth. We sell 
it for 25c (paper covers) in connection with orders for $1 worth of plants, or 
give it absolutely free with all orders of $10 worth of goods from this catalogue. 
SUPPLY AND PRICES 
The most of these fall bearing varieties have been on the market only one 
or two years, and the supply of plants is still limited. 1 his is why the price is 
greater than for common summer bearing kinds. In most cases, the price is made 
by the originator of the variety. If we asked but common prices for these 
plants, they would all be sold out in a few days after our catalogue is mailed. 
Last year the demand was such that there were not near enough plants to go 
round.
