When all is considered PREMIER is the most profitable 
strawberry variety grown today. It puts a big crop of fine 
appearing berries on the market first every time and does 
it in spite of frosts that often kill other varieties. These two 
facts are PREMIER’S greatest points of superiority as a 
dependable money-maker. PREMIER eliminates crop fail¬ 
ures, and by ripening five days to a week earlier than any 
other kind, it never fails to command high prices. Always 
produces its good crops on a wide range of soils and cli- , 
mates throughout the country. • 
Actually millions more Premier plants have been sold 
the past few years than any other kind. Premier continues 
to be widely planted in larger quantities than any other 
early berry. Growers know that PREMIER is an unfailing 
money-maker every year. Consumers demand it. You will 
need to grow PREMIER—and 
plenty of them—to be in the berry 
business profitably.

GEM C'O&nlt&a'uttCf, 
Make Money This Fall With Gem 
Gem is the everbearer fruit growers have been looking 
for because unlike all other everbearers, it is an excellent 
plant maker on good or poor soils and in wet or dry sea¬ 
sons. This fact means that it can be depended on for good 
crops every year. Here we have a really fine fall berry of 
good size, fine flavor and unusual firmness. 
Productiveness—Flavor—Firmness 
1. Productiveness. GEM makes so many more plants than 
other everbearers that it produces many more berries. 
2. Flavor. A true strawberry flavor—something most ever¬ 
bearers don’t have. 
3. Firmness. Remarkably firm—only everbearer that 
reaches market in really first class shape. 
4. Profits. Because of size, firmness and sure crops— 
good profits are certain. 
MICHIGAN EXP. STATION SAYS: “Gem is cer¬ 
tainly a wonder as far as plant making is concerned and it 
certainly bears well.’’ 
You can plant Gem with full confidence of a full fall 
crop and good profits. (Prices, page 9.)
