EVERBEARING STRAWBERRIES 

WAYZATA 
MASTODON 
The Giant Everbearer 
PLANT MASTODON THIS YEAR. Why plant 
common sorts when with Mastodon you can get 
three crops in the same time you would get one 
with the June-bearing varieties? Our selected 
Mastodon bear a heavy crop the same summer 
planted, a crop the following spring that equals 
or surpasses any of the June-Bearers that we 
grow, and a heavy crop that following fall. Why 
wait a full year before getting returns? 
A variety such as Mastodon cannot be adequ- 
ately described in words, This berry, as a com- 
mon or June-bearing sort, is so firm that it will 
carry hundreds of miles in perfect condition and 
command the highest prices. The big green clayx 
of this wonder variety gives it an appearance 
that only Mastodon has, and these facts, coupled 
with the extreme large size, the tremendous 
bearing capacity and its valuable everbearing 
characteristics, readily show why you should in- 
clude Mastodon in your order this year, Others 
of our growers are making big money on this 
variety, and the farmer who plants one or more 
acres now for a June-bearing crop should get 
the cream of the profits in the future. 
BLAKEMORE EARLY 
Extra Early—Ideal Shipper 
The Blakemore is a cross of Missionary and 
Premier, originated and developed by the U. S. 
Department of Agriculture. We have bought our 
foundation stock from that source. 
Blakemore is a free plant maker and produces 
a heavy fruiting row on any kind of soil. The 
foliage is tall and heavy, and protects the 
blooms from late spring freezes. The berries are 
beautiful, glossy, bright red to the core. It has 
a tough skin, firm flesh and a wonderful mild 
and juicy flavor. An excellent canner and one 
of the few varieties that keeps its color after 
preserving. Prices same as Dunlap, 



WAYZATA 
The Honey Sweet Strawberry 
A New Everbearer that is different. We might 
call it a real “Hill Berry” for the reason that it 
does not produce more than three to four run- 
ners to a plant. A decided advantage to the grow- 
er, as he does not have to remove first blossoms 
or runners. Each rooted crown set out this 
spring starts multiplying new crowns at once, 
until it has up to 20 or 25 crowns to a plant, it 
has ripe berries fully a month ahead of other 
everbearers. These plants are not affected by 
wet weather which usually ruins everbearers by 
hindering pollenization. 
Berries are extremely large, very dark red, 
delicious sugary flavor. Heavy producers, con- 
tinuing to bear long after other everbearers 
have been stopped by frosts. Try some this year, 
and we know you will be back next year with a 
large order for Wayzata. 
GEM 
For High Quality and High Yield 
Discovered by Frank J. Keplinger on his fruit 
farm) in north centra] Michigan, the parent plant 
from which this remarkable strain has been pro- 
pagated apparently was one of those miracles 
that happen in the berry industry once in a life- 
time. 
In an old patch of Everbearers there was a 
great, thrifty, husky plant with luxuriant dark 
green foliage, sparkling with vitality — loaded 
with beautiful bright red berries and growing 
lustily in, the poorest soil in the whole field. The 
original Gem plants and 12 runner plants pro- 
duced 25 quarts of berries and over 200 new 
plants the first season in new raw muck where 
other Strawberry plants were unable even to 
survive.
