Dear Friend: 
Here we are again! It hasn't been long since we sent you our 
Berry Book, but we wanted to remind you about our strawberry plants. 
They are just great this year. Good size, well developed roots, strong 
crowns, and vigorous healthy foliage make for planting stock sure to 
live and grow and yield generous crops. 
If you have already made your selection and sent in your order, 
many, many thanks. It will have our prompt and careful attention. 
If you have not, please bear in mind in no other farm or garden crop is 
early setting more important than strawberries. 
We invite your special attention to the five leaders, beautifully 
illustrated in color, as well as the brief descriptions of other top- 
notch varieties in this circular. You will make no mistake in choosing 
some of these winners. They have earned their place at the top by 
actual performance. 
How about some of the Collections offered here? If you have no 
particular interest in varieties but just want some good strawberries, 
you may choose one of these collections with full confidence that you 
are getting the best. 55 years of experience are in back of every order. 
Early spring (March and April) is the time to plant for middle and 
northern states, and in all places plant as early as the ground can be

Sincerely yours.
