since Mastodon and its many fine qualities will soon make 
it the leading market variety of Everbearers. 
Gem has every other Everbearer beaten for quality and 
flavor. The fruit is well shaped and uniformly large. It is 
sparkling red in color, rich, and about the sweetest berry we 
have tasted. Unsurpassed for keeping qualities and the 
firmness of the fruit will permit its being handled for long¬ 
distance shipping, even during hot weather.

'A BARREL OF GEMS' 
IN YOUR BACK YARD OR EVEN ON THE BACK PORCH 
Grow these fine everbearing 
strawberries in a barrel. Fifty 
plants can be planted in a com¬ 
mon sugar barrel, or even an old 
potato barrel. Bore two-inch 
holes in the side of the barrel 
and fill barrel with some good 
soil. Then set the plants in these 
holes, and 10 plants can be set 
on top. Keep well watered. Be 
sure to bore a few holes in the 
bottom for drainage. Barrel can 
be kept in the back yard or even 
on the back porch. • This saves 
space and you can have berries 
for breakfast twice a week. 
No weeds, no cultivation neces¬ 
sary. Keep runners pinched off. 
Just the thing for folks in town 
with less yardroom.
