STRAWBERRIES 
THE NEW SCARLET GEM 
Has Everything 
Gem berries average above the ordinary in size and 
don’t “run small and buttony.” Even during the past 
unfavorable summer, Gem berries continued large 
and fresh—a remarkable important characteristic for an everbear¬ 
ing strawberry and the berries continue to form large up to cold, 
freezing weather in the fall. 
FLAVOR 
No one can find fault with a Gem 
flavor. They are as sweet and highly 
flavored as berries of the mother vari¬ 
ety, the Progressive. They are just chock full of strawberry 
sweetness. You don’t need much sugar when you eat Gem berries. 
PROGRESSIVE EVERBEARING 
"Put on your overcoats and pick enough 
strawberries for shortcake." 
FIRMNESS 
Gem is the firmest everbearer grown. 
This is evidently due to the tough 
skin of the berry, as well as its extra 
firm flesh. The originator states that Gem “could be rolled to market 
and back and still be sold.” Even during hot summer Gem Berries 
“hold up” in color and firm - 
ness. A quart or crate of Gem 
berries never “leaks” no mat¬ 
ter how far it is hauled. 
This is the hardiest of the ever- 
bearing Strawberries, producing large 
crops of medium sized fruit from July 
until heavy freezing. This is one of 
the older varieties but still a good 
variety and should appear in all 
gardens. We grow our Strawberry 
plants under irrigation, and they are 
strong and healthy. We will furnish 
instructions to planters with each 
order.
