Fall Bearing Strawberry 
Seed 
(True Hybridized Seeds.) 
During the summer of 1914. we saved the 
seeds from 200 quarts of Fall-bearing Straw¬ 
berries, and now offer them to our patrons 
at 25c per packet of about 500 seeds. These 
seeds, if planted in February, March or 
April, will produce fruit in the fall of 
1915, if proper care is given. If planted 
any time during the spring or summer of 
1915, they will bear fruit in the fall of 
1916. I do not advise depending upon these 
seeds to get a supply of strawberries, but it 
is a very interesting pastime to grow new 
seedling strawberries and it may result in 
securing a variety that will surpass any of 
the fall bearing kinds now in cfultivation. 
It will be possible for people in distant 
countries to supply themselves with fall 
bearing strawberries by planting these seeds 
when it would be impossible to make plants 
endure the long transit. Every seed will 
produce a new variety, it may be better and 
it may be inferior to the parents. The new 
varieties will have all the different shapes, 
shades and flavors, and it will be interesting 
to watch the results. The most of the 
seeds are from Autumn and Productive, fer¬ 
tilized with Americus, Francis, Progressive 
and Superb. Each packet has printed in¬ 
structions, showing how to grow and care 
for them. Price, 25c each; 5 packets for $1. 
Mr. Bert Mitchell, of Pulaski (Florist), 
sowed a packet of our seeds February 24th, 
1913. He picked ripe berries from these 
plants August 4th of the same year. 
Gooseberry Seed 
These seeds were saved from a large, 
white, seedling gooseberry similar to the 
Keepsake. The berries were nearly 1 inch 
in diameter. 25 seeds 15c; 100, 35c. 
Currant Seed 
These seeds were saved from selected 
specimens of the Perfection currant and 
should produce something worth while. 25 
seeds 15c; 100, 35c. 
Elderberry Seed 
These seeds were saved from the improved 
elderberry and will produce plants that will 
surprise you with the large berries that 
they will bear. Some of these elderberries 
measure one-third of an inch in diameter. 
25 seeds 15c; 100, 35c.
