quired, there is constant bloom, and that splendid quality, long life 
as a cut flower. They are delightful little guests in the house. 
Many people say they have no room for Dahlias, but the Pompons 
take up so little, and are a very valuable flower for the small gar¬

“GROWING PLANTS FROM SEEDS” 
STRAWBERRY PLANTS 
The New "Puget Sound Wonder" Strawberry 
(Also known as the “New Washington”) 
Undoubtedly the best strawberry in cultivation. Reasons for pre¬ 
eminence—largest, sweetest and best flavored berry, red to the 
center. The flavor is like the wild strawberry. Eighteen berries fill 
a shipping box the first part of the season. It will grow on either 
heavy or light soil and in any climate where strawberries are grown. 
Most prolific grower, as when grown in hills on fertilized ground the 
plants grow so large that the pickers can pick only one side of a 
row at a time. 
Nearly frost-proof, as young plants stay green at three degrees 
below zero. Blooms late and ripens early. Big money maker. Good 
shipper. It has been shipped 2500 miles and arrived in good condition. 
As nearly as we can trace the parentage of this berry, it is a 
Marshall, crossed with the native wild strawberry. 
Plants: $1.00 per 50; $1.50 per 100, prepaid west of the Rockies; 
east of the Rockies add 25c per 100. $6.00 per 1000, by express collect. 
MARSHALL. A fine red berry excellent for home and canning 
purposes; you can’t go wrong if you plant this well known standard 
berry. 25 for 50c; 100 for $1.25, prepaid west of the Rockies, except 
Southern California and Texas, $1.50. East per 100, $1.50. By ex¬ 
press collect, $6.00 per 1000; 500 in proportion. 
GEM. A new Everbearing straw¬ 
berry. They originated in Michigan and 
were introduced by several growers in 
1934. Since then the demand for Gem 
plants has been unlimited. This variety 
has proved to be resistant to all disease 
and the most winter-hardy variety 
known. The plants stand freezing and 
thawing without protection of any 
kind. Gem plants have flourished in 
heavy wet ground where other vari¬ 
eties could not survive. This is one 
everbearing strawberry for low land. 
The berries are large, uniform, well 
shaped and ripen even from beginning 
to the end of the season. The flavor is 
sweet, rich and satisfying. For quality 
it is supreme, as the berries retain 
their bright red color long after pick¬ 
ing and do not bruise or become spotty 
when shipped to distant markets. The 
fruit stands shipping and handling in 
hot dry weather. 
The yield of a field set in the spring 
was more than 244 crates to the acre 
the first year. 
Place your orders early as this vari¬ 
ety is new and the plants are in big 
demand and will not last to the end 
of the setting season. 
Prices: 50 plants for 90c (not less sold), $1.75 per 100, postpaid.
