MASTODON EVERBEARING 
For the past ten years the Mastodon has been 
the best of the everbearing strawberries. Berries 
are very large and keep good size until end of sea¬ 
son. Mastodon does well on land that is not too light 
or too heavy. Our land is mostly light sandy loam. 
But we plow under lots of rye for green manure. This 
holds the moisture. We set the plants in April, keep 
the blossoms picked off until July 4th. They started 
to fruit the 2nd of August and we picked the last 
berries on the 14th of November. This was owing to 
the warm Fall we had last year. We usually finish 
picking about the last of October. If you have never 
grown Mastodon or Gem, plant some this Spring. 
150 to 200 plants will supply a good sized family 
with all the berries they can use from August until 
October with a second crop the following Spring. 
Fruit growers and farmers that have a roadside 
stand' should plant some of the Everbearing vari¬ 
eties. They will help to bring trade to your stand. I 
want to invite everyone interested in strawberries to 
come to my farm and see the Mastodon and Gem in 
fruit this Fall. I intend to plant some in the hill sys¬ 
tem, some in the narrow row and some in the wide 
matted row so you can see which is the best way to 
grow them for fruit. Come anytime after August 
10th until the last of September. All are welcome.
