gently and attend to all the details thorough¬ 
ly. We are going to set more acres in 1915 
than ever before. 
It is only fair to mention here that fall 
bearing strawberries do not succeed equally 
well in all places as they do with us. We 
rarely ever have a complaint from any sec¬ 
tion except the extreme South. They suc¬ 
ceed on the Pacific coast, in Canada and 
all through the North, but from the Guir 
States, we receive some complaints that they 
are nearly if not quite a failure. We can¬ 
not account for this. In many locations our 
customers seem to have even better success 
with them than we do ourselves.
