STRAWBERRIES. 
SHAItPLE&S STKAW BERRY. 
F OR field culture, plant in rows four feet apart, with the plants one foot apart in the row. For garden culture, plant three by one foot. Should 
the ground not be,prepared for planting, on receipt of plants, they should be carefully heeled in, in a cool, moist, shady place. Do not sprinkle 
the foliage, as it causes a moisture to collect, which is very injurious to the crowns, causing them to rot. In setting the plants, be careful to 
have the crown even with, or if little above the surface of the ground, and to have the trench, or hole, in which the plant is to be set, deep enough 
to allow the roots their full length. Some varieties of Strawberries have pistillate or imperfect flowers. These must have perfect-flowered varieties 
planted every fifteen or twenty feet among them or they will produce imperfect fruit. The pistillate varieties are marked with the letter P. 
Our Pot Grown Strawberry Plants are much stronger and come to bearing earlier than the ordinary kinds. 
They are well worth the double price, as they are all extra choice selected plants, and will fruit the first season.

EUREKA STRAWBERRY. 
SHAKESPEARE’S IDEA OF IT. 
The strawberry grows underneath the nettle , 
And wholesome berries thrive and ripen best. 
Neighbor'd by fruit of baser quality."
