C'aflPQ'f Berries are extra large, no small ones to bother with. Very 
L* firm, bright red all the way through. Ripen evenly, no green 
QUdllty tips, and the flavor is the best you’ve ever tasted. Since the 
introduction of Mastodon, Gem is the only variety which

Our 
Faith 
in GEM 
It is our belief that there 
never has been and prob¬ 
ably never will be another 
Everbearing Strawberry that 
even approaches Gem in 
the qualities that make for perfection. In 
our opinion Gem is soon destined to be¬ 
come the most widely grown Everbearing 
Strawberry in America.

you’ve been looking for! It’s the biggest sen¬ 
sation in years. 
\Tf\ TIC'!? t At the present time there are so many kinds of Strawberry plants that are superior to older varieties, that we have

way, consisting of twelve varieties—early, medium, and late. We have continued to grow the outstanding and the best older varieties along 
with the new. Why plant kinds that are inferior when you can secure the best- 
Due to the severe drought of the past summer, the supply of Strawberry plants hast been 
curtailed to such an extent that there will not be near enough plants to go around—about 20% 
of a crop. If you wish to get covered on your requirements, place your order! at the earliest 
possible time and be assured of securing the varieties you want.

Wayzata 
"Wayzata 
A New Everbearer that is 
different. We might call it a 
real “Hill Berry” for the rea¬ 
son that it does not produce 
more than three or four runners to a plant. A decided advantage to 
the grower, as he does not have to remove first blossoms, or runners. 
Each rooted crown set out this spring starts multiplying new crowns 
at once, until it has up to 20 to 25 crowns to a plant. It has ripe 
berries fully a month ahead of other Everbearers. These plants are 
not affected by wet weather which usually ruins Everbearers by 
hindering pollenization. 
Berries are extremely large, very dark red, delicious sugary flavor. 
Heavy producers, continuing to bear long after other Everbearers 
have been stopped by frosts. Try some this year, and we know you 
will be back next year with a large order for Wayzata.
