J. A. BAUER PLANT COMPANY'S BLUE RIBBON BRAND PLANTS 
We Have Millions of Imp. Klondike. This shows one block of them. 
Blakemore, Ter. —A wonderful U. S. De¬ 
partment of Agriculture creation from a 
cross of the Missionary and Premier. The 
berries are much firmer than the Mis¬ 
sionary, Premier, or the Klondike. The 
berries are a beautiful bright glossy red 
color, with a tough skin, firm flesh, with 
wonderful mild flavor. Plants make runners 
freely and you are sure of getting a good 
fruiting row. It is a wonderful market 
berry. One week earlier than the Premier. 
Mastodon, Per. —The greatest everbear¬ 
ing berry grown and one that will please ■ 
you. Large to very large in size; a sure 
cropper all summer. 
For over ten years we have had a big 
strong demand for Mastodon Everbearing. 
Every season we have run short and had 
to ship in stock from the north. In the 
spring of 1930 we bought over $4,000.00 
worth of them, so we set out 15 acres of 
our own. We have had a time keeping off 
the berries and blooms. We hoed them 
nine times and picked berries and blooms 
off three times besides. This makes 12 
times we have gone over them to keep 
off the fruit so we could make plants. 
Yet on September 5th, they were full of 
berries and blooms. We expected to keep 
them off until September 25, then let 
them fruit and sell the berries. We have 
had berries for several years up to Novem¬ 
ber 20th. They stand down to 20 degrees 
above zero and still fruit each fall. It takes 
real cold weather to stop this Mastodon 
from fruiting. We can fill your orders this 
time with true blue plants as in the past. I 
can say by test no other everbearing sort 
is as good as Mastodon. We have tried all 
of them and if you want the best, plant 
Mastodon. Notice the view of our Masto¬ 
don taken September 1st. They will grow 
another thirty days. We haVe plenty of 
plants for yuc. 
Progressive, Per. —This is the second 
everbearing variety. It is next to Mastodon 
in the field of everbearing varieties. We 
have a fair stock of them and hope to have 
your orders.
