STRAWBERRIES 
We grow and sell the kinds which do well in Kentucky. Use Hillen- 
meyer’s Tried and Tested Plants. All varieties listed are perfect flowering. § 
PREMIER 
One of the most popular Strawber- 
ries ever introduced. Good plant maker, 
frost resistant and prolific. The bright 
red berries are large, bluntly conical, 
of good quality and hold up in size to 
the very end if the season is favorable. 
The leading berry for market or home. 
No variety ever tested has been so de- 
servedly popular and we recommend it 
as the best carly and midseason kind. 
BLAKEMORE 
Ripens a few days before Premier. 
Berries light red, conical and will re- 
main firm a few days after ripening. 
Excellent for commercial or home use. 
Productive, good plant maker, and will 
do well on rather poor soil. Our plants 
are the Yellows-free Plant 
Blakemore for profit. 
CATSKILL 
A new outstanding variety of high 
quality which is rapidly growing in pop- 
ularity. Bright red, midseason and ex- 
cellent for home use. 
Strain. 
DORSETT 
One of the most satisfactory 
varieties that has been intro- 
duced in years. Its high quality, 
bright colored berries with light 
red flesh are excellent both for 
home and local market pur- 
poses. Ripens a few days after 
Premier, and while by some is 
thought better, we are not yet 
ready to give it preference. It is 
a good plant maker. 
FAIRFAX ound 
Of highest quality and ripenS\ em 
about a week after Premier. } 
Berries bluntly conical, dull red, ™& 
yellow or greenish seed and dark tj 
red flesh. Juicy, firm and a fine 
home berry. It so overlaps Aro- * 
ma and so much better quality 
we have discontinued growing 
the latter variety. 
GANDY 
Still the best late berry. 
Robust 
plants with fruit on strong stems, blos- 
soming exceedingly late and thus fre- 
quently missing frosts that often kill the 
early bloomers. Conical berries with 
large caps, firm and rather acid. Excel- 
lent for preserving, canning or shipping. 
Prefers a moist clay soil. 
Our prices permit you to make selection of any variety listed.

Cultural Directions for 
Strawberries 
WHEN PLANTS ARE RECEIVED. Plant at once if possible. If 
season is not favorable put in cool, moist place, BUT DO NOT 
WATER. They also may be unpacked and trenched in open ground. 
WHEN TO PLANT. Late March or April is the chosen time. 
usually results in a complete failure. 
Fall planting 
SOIL. Strawberries respond to good soil and you should choose a fertile 
location. However, do not plant immediately after turning under sod, as 
white grubs invariably cause trouble. Prepare the ground very thoroughly. 
DISTANCE TO PLANT. The rows should be three and a half to four feet 
apart and the plants set about eighteen inches in the’row. It requires about 
7000 plants per acre. 
CULTIVATION. During the summer keep the ground constantly stirred 
and free of weeds. Moisture preservation by dust mulch will conserve the 
vitality of your plants and produce a fine matted row. Keep the hoe and 
cultivator busy. 
MULCHING. Protect by mulching with clean straw in fall or early winter 
after the ground is frozen. Do not apply too heavily, as this smothers the 
plants. Leave on during the fruiting season, as it conserves moisture and 
keeps the berries clean. 
AFTER FRUITING. Immediately plow or narrow the original row to about 
a foot. Thoroughly cultivate the middle so as to give the new plants a 
chance to get established. Repeat the second year. We do not advise keep- 
ing beds more than two or three years. 
FAMILY REQUIREMENTS. About three hundred, five hundred, or a thou- 
sand plants are required for a small, medium, or large family. 
SELECTION OF VARIETIES. We shall be glad to make selection of suit- 
able varieties if you want to leave this to us.
