STRAWBERRY PLANTS 
FAIRFAX: A new strawberry originated by the 
United States Department of Agriculture. For the 
home garden, local market and roadside stand, we 
believe Fairfax has no equal. It tops the market in 
price. The plants are strong and fully as productive 
as the best of our old varieties with larger, firmer 
berries of far better quality. Fairfax is a perfect berry 
and does not require other varieties for pollination. 
Berries ripen medium early, two or three days later 
than Premier. Well grown Fairfax are beautiful in 
appearance—the berries are a rich red color and if 
allowed to remain on the plants, take on the deep 
rich color of polished mahogany. 
Plants are grown on our own farms where soil con¬ 
ditions are ideal for the production of thrifty plants, 
free from disease. Fresh dug No. 1 plants : 25 plants, 
40 cts.; 50 plants, 70 cts.; 100 plants, $1.25, 
Prepaid. 1,000 plants, $9.00, Not prepaid. (500 
at 1,000 rate.) 
1939 CALENDAR 
"It’s Fun to Pick Fairfax Strawberries” 
Do you find personal calendars more interesting? We 
do and that is why we think our 1939 calendar of the above 
strawberry picture will please you. 
The boy on the left is “Junior” Sullivan. His father has 
worked for us the past five years. Junior thinks he prefers 
to be a doctor rather than a farmer. In the center is Orson 
Robson’s elder son. John is taking a very active interest 
in the Seed Farms and will probably go to Cornell after he 
finishes high school. The boy on the right is Morrell 
Jorgensen, another of John’s pals. Morrell is only 14 
years old but he will graduate from high school next June 
and then intends to study veterinary medicine. All of these 
boys are first class scouts in “Joe” Robson’s Boy Scout 
Troop. 
If you would like one of these calendars, with this 
strawberry picture and large legible date pads, send us a 
card or ask for one on your seed order.
