STRAWBERRIES—Continued 
Do not manure strawberry land before 
setting the plants. You can fertilize 
after the plants are growing well, in the 
irrigation furrow between the rows if 
you wish. 
Do not plant strawberries on alkali 
land. They are very susceptible to al¬ 
kali and will do no good on land that is 
alkaline, although it may grow some 
other crops successfully. And only plant 
strawberries where there is an abundant 
supply of water which may be had often. 
Prices—All prices quoted for straw¬ 
berry plants are prepaid. Write for prices

Kloudyke — The Klondyke has long 
been a favorite with the commercial 
growers in southern California, because 
of its earliness, fine color, keeping qual¬ 
ities and heavy production. The fruit is 
highly flavored and good quality, but not 
sweet. 
Ripening season in California from 
April until July, being two distinct crops 
one following immediately after the 
other. 
It is a vigorous grower and good plant 
maker. The fruit is highly flavored and 
the color very bright red. It is one of 
the very best varieties for preserving 
and for jam. 
For the large commercial grower, in 
southern California, who expects to sell 
berries through the wholesale produce 
market we recommend Klondyke. It is 
well known to the buyers and its hand¬ 
some appearance is a big point in its 
favor. 
Prices—For 25, 50c; 100, $1.50; 300, 
$3.50; 500, $5.00; 1000, $7.00.

Carolina—Known as Missionary in the 
East. A favorite in Southern California 
in the hotter regions, and especially so 
on sandier poorer soils. It is a heavy 
producer of good quality fruit, but not 
quite as well colored as Klondike or 
Dorsett. Often called Carolina Ever- 
bearing because it sometimes bears a 
fall crop too. 
Prices same as for Klondyke. 
Blakemore. This wonderful new va¬ 
riety was originated and developed by 
the Department of Agriculture. 
The National Preservers Association 
has made a test of this variety and pro¬ 
nounces it the finest strawberry ever de¬ 
veloped for canning and preserving. 
Firmer and sweeter than the Klondyke 
and red clear through, it holds its color 
and shape, when cooked, better than 
other varieties. 
In California its second crop lasts later 
in the summer than Klondyke. 
Prices same as Klondyke. 
New Oregon—Banner—Oregon Plum— 
The same berry under different names. 
From the standpoint of quality this is 
the finest berry grown in California to¬ 
day. We especially recommend them to 
commercial growers in Central and 
Northern California and to home garden¬ 
ers with rather heavy soil in Southern 
California. In the cooler sections this 
berry is almost everbearing. It is a fine 
variety for growers who sell their fruit at 
the roadside because the customer never 
forgets the fine quality and flavor and 
always comes back for more. It is one 
Klondyke Strawberries growing as an inter-crop between walnut trees. This 
field produced a gross income of $900.00 per acre.
