GEM EVERBEARING “PER.” 
Introduced to the trade in 1934, Gem makes a 
very vigorous growth of medium sized plants. The 
foliage is very healthy with no leaf spot. The berries 
average large in size, are bright red in color, very 
showy and attractive in the box, and very firm. They 
stand a wet spell better than the Mastodon as they 
don't have so heavy foliage. The berries dry off 
better after rain. The Gem does well grown in the 
hill system or narrow row. For the narrow row set 
plants 18 inches apart in the row, with rows 3% ft. 
apart and let each plant make six to eight runner 
plants. A good berry for home use or market. If 
the Mastodon is not entirely satisfactory with you, 
try some Gem this Spring. 
Order your plants early. A small remittance is 
all that is required with your order. Send balance 
when you want plants shipped.

We use square pint baskets for marketing our 
Everbearing berries. We find they sell better than 
in quart baskets. 
We Are Headquarters For Everbearing Strawberries 
Since the Everbearing strawberries came on the 
market, they have mostly been grown under the Hill 
system. For some time we have tested them under 
the Hill system, the narrow row and the matted row.
