YOU GET MORE FOR YOUR 
MONEY when you buy Westhauser’s 
Heavy Rooted Plants. They are results of 
long experience, careful selection of breed' 
ing stock over a period of years, good soil 
management, up'tO'the'minute farm ma' 
chinery. WESTHAUSER strains will in 
turn produce a heavy yield and pay larger 
dividends for his customers. 
Get Your Plants Freshly Dug 
Some nurseries buy all their strawberry plants. 
Now these plants are shipped and reshipped several 
times before they reach you. Results, they are DRY 
and WEAKENED, with low vitality. Our plants 
are freshly dug, carefully packed and are on their 
way to you in a few hours after they are brought 
from our fields, thus reaching you in the best of 
growing condition. 
Beware of Cheap Plants 
From fly-byHiight nurserymen who have little or 
no acreage of their own and offer their product at 
very low prices. They depend on any berry grower 
who is willing to dig some plants between his fruit¬ 
ing rows. Of course, such plants are small and unde¬ 
veloped and can he bought almost at any price. 
Result, quite often a bunch of half-starved, mixed 
plants. You would not consider buying scrub live¬ 
stock for breeding purposes. Why buy scrub nursery 
stock? 
Our Prices Are Reasonable 
Our prices are governed by supply of stock for 
sale and cost of production. In spite of about 30 
per cent increase in production cost, many items are 
even lower. 
Hardy Northern Grown 
OUR NORTHERN CLIMATE is ideal for grow¬ 
ing hardy nursery stock, because we are located so 
near Lake Michigan, which puts a damper on our 
winters, making the climate such that our nursery 
stock is practically dormant until late in the spring. 
Bear in mind, Mr. Fruit Grower, plants that are 
dormant so late in the season, have little foliage and 
carry well in transit. That is one reason why our 
plants can be shipped long distances with the best 
of results. 
Order Early—Plants Limited 
The plant crop is limited in most plant producing 
states and is estimated to be 50 to 60 per cent crop 
of spring hearing and 30 to 40 per cent crop of 
everbearing. Now this is due to heavy spring rains 
and late planting. Protect yourself — order early 
and have your plants reserved.
