This is a block of Aroma for 1941 digging. A wonderful variety. These 
are fine plants. See page 23 for prices. 
The Big Four 
On pages 9, 10, 11 and 12 of this catalog there are descriptions of what 
-we believe to be the best varieties in existence today; Dorsett, Fairfax, Pre- 
mier and Catskill. 
They posess all the elements that make for success: vigor of growth, 
productivity, stamina at fruiting time, freedom from disease, and what is 
most important, the handsome appearance that always commands the high- 
est price. 
Of the four, Premier is the most popular. It is early, productive 
and a success under all conditions of soil and climate, but Dorsett and Fairfax 
may replace it in our opinion, certainly in some localities. 
We feel that a mistake is made when a long list of varieties is planted. 
Differing widely in general appearance, different varieties do not crate up 
well together, pickers are not satisfied to gather carefully the smaller and 
less productive kinds. Many of them are inferior in some particular, hence 
we unhesitatingly recommend these four of tested merit and unquestioned 
superiority. Of course, if it has been demonstrated that for your special 
situation of either soil or market that other kinds are best, we will be glad 
to fill your order. 


Big Yields 
Writing for a large berry grower’s association in Floyd County, Indiana, 
Mr. William Scott, secretary-treasurer says “Please quote us prices on Premier 
strawberry plants in lots of 50 to 100 thousand. Our growers have had won- 
derful success with your plants. Some have had yields as high as 100 24-at. 
crates per 1000 plants of setting. Thanking you.”
