THE TWO FINEST STRAWBERRIES 
DORSET! 
ROCKHILL 
For Spring and Summer 
For Summer and Fall 
In California the Dorsett pro¬ 
duces from April until July. Won¬ 
derful color, excellent flavor, largfe 
size. Dorsett and Rockhill will 
g-ive you supreme quality berries 
througrh the entire summer and 
fall. (See picture, inside bach cover, 
prices bottom this pagre.) 
Plant these varieties and g‘et 
the most from your strawberry 
garden. 
Rochhill planted April 1st, or 
earlier, will start ripening* in July 
(same season), and will produce 
continuously until winter, the 
finest flavored, and still the sweet¬ 
est berries you have ever tasted. 
Description and prices below. We 
picked a fine crop of Rockhills 
every day from July until Novem¬ 
ber this past summer. 
Our thrifty plants produce crops like this.

as sweet. It is just as good commercial 
berry to sell on the markets. The qual¬ 
ity is not as fine as Rockhill, but the 
plants are less expensive, because Gem 
does make some runners. We recommend 
this variety particularly for market 
growers. 
Prices—$2.00 per 100, $10.00 per 1000, 
prepaid. 
Rockhill —There has been a great deal 
said about this everbearing strawberry, 
the past year or two. It is absolutely true 
that the Rockhill is the finest flavored of 
all the everbearing kinds we have ever 
tasted. 
If handled as suggested under the 
heading “Everbearing Strawberries” you 
will be astonished and delighted at the 
quantity, flavor and size of the berries 
they will produce and all only a few 
months after planting. Another point 
that is highly acceptable to the home 
gardener is the fact that they do not 
make runners. Many varieties of straw¬ 
berries make so many runners that it is 
a big chore to keep them pulled off and 
if this is not done the bed gets so thick 
that it produces few and very small 
fruit. While this saves you much work 
it also makes the plants more expensive 
because new plants have to be gotten by 
digging up and subdividing the young 
crowns after they have grown just one 
season. Plants obtained in this way are 
not nearly as good looking as plants of 
other varieties grown from rooted run¬ 
ners, but the surprising part of it is that 
they start out growing faster than the 
large fine looking plants and develop 
into big, fine bushes sooner. After try¬ 
ing out a great many varieties of ever- 
bearing strawberries our first choice is 
Rockhill and our second choice is Mas¬ 
todon or Gem. 
To have the very finest in strawberries 
from early spring until late fall, divide 
your planting between Dorsett and Rock¬ 
hill. You will like them both. 
Do not plant on land that has been in 
tomatoes or other crops subject to 
blight, for it will hold over in the 
ground and this variety seems suscep¬ 
tible to it. 
Prices, Prepaid—25, $1.25; 50, $2.25; 
100, $4.00; 1000, $30.00. 
Dorsett —For many years growers have 
hoped to produce a berry that would be 
as early and as fine looking as the Klon- 
dyke, and one which would be sweeter. 
Now the Dorsett seems to just fill that 
need. Our opinion is that the Dorsett is 
the best moneymaker for the commercial 
strawberry grower right now. 
Prices Prepaid — 25 for 75c, 50 for 
$1.25, 100 for $2.00, 300 for $4.00, 500 for 
$5.00, 1000 for $9.00.
