OUR NORTHERN CLIMATE is ideal for growing hardy nurs- 
ery 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 
1 hat is one reason why our plants can be shipped long dis- 
tances with the best of results.

Dear Sir: From your 2000 
Premier plants I harvested 2400 
quarts of No. 1 berries last 
summer; I did not keep count 
of the smaller berries. I am 
going to plant 3 to 5 acres.
