A STURDY PLANT 
pany every shipment of plants. There is nothing 
at all difficult about the culture of Blueberries 
provided the soil is suitable, and some attention 
is given to them in the matter of pruning out 
the weak branches, and keeping them clear of 
weeds and brush. 
They will not need pruning for the first few 
years after planting. When we refer to pruning, 
we refer to half grown or older bushes that are 
apt to get dense and overbear, thus producing 
an inferior size of fruit. Blueberries grow very 
fast when once started. In our own fields and 
nursery rows, the plants have a most sturdy and 
thrifty appearance, some of the new shoots 
attaining a height of 4 ft. in a season. These 
shoots when ripened off in the fall of the year 
are sometimes a full half inch in diameter. It is 
from this nursery that all our orders are filled. 
We have been complimented again and again 
on the thrifty and clean condition of our plants, 
and we guarantee satisfaction so far as any 
guarantee can be given on the finest stock 
grown anywhere. 
In conclusion, we wish to point out that 
these new improved blueberries are HARD 
WOODED plants like Azaleas, and as difficult 
to propagate. They will never be overdone be¬ 
cause they can never be cheaper than they are 
now. Our prices are quoted for wide distribu¬ 
tion. We invite correspondence.
