Hardy Lilies 
The beautiful fragrant lilies are considered 
by many too difficult to grow. However, the 
hardy varieties which we list are no harder 
to grow than a tulip. They blossom in mid- 
summer when fine flowers are most welcome. 
Plant with a dark background in groups in 
the flower border and shrubbery. 
Select a place to plant that 
is well drained. The soil should be spaded 
inches deep. Do this 
early in the fall as lilies cannot be moved 
until late and it is hard to work the ground 
late in the season, especially after we have 
Enrich the soil with leaf 
thoroughly 15 to 18 
mold and sheep manure in equal proportions. 
Set the bulbs 4 to 8 inches deep, depending 
on the size, tilting to a 45-degree angle. To 
insure good drainage pack sand around the 
bulb. Place about four inches of mulch over 
the bed. See page 17 for Day Lilies (Hem- 
erocallis).

Olds’ Strawberry Plants 
JUNE BEARING STRAWBERRIES 
The plants will be shipped on or about September Ist, 
depending on weather conditions. They will not be sent 
with other goods. They are freshly dug, well packed and 
sent by themselves. All are Wisconsin grown, large plants, 
well rooted. 
SENATOR DUNLAP. (Perfect Flowering.) Considered 
by many the best all-around June strawberry. At any rate 
it is the one most widely known. The plants are medium 
in size, long rooted and thoroughly drouth resistant. The 
variety is unusually productive, beginning to ripen early 
and continuing to bear for a long time. 
The fruit is of medium gize, smooth, regular and firm 
and the color is a beautiful red extending well to the 
center of the berry. Prices: 50 plants, 75c; 100 plants, 
$1.25; 200 plants, $2.00; 500 plants, $4.00, postpaid, 
1,000 by express, $6.50. 
BEAVER. (Perfect Flowering.) Our new June bearing 
strawberry. The Beaver is an offspring of the Dr. Burrell 
and Premier and a much better commercial berry than 
either one, as the berries are larger, sweeter and firmer. 
Will stand unfavorable soil and climatic conditions better 
than any other variety. The berries are dark red to the 
center, of a uniform size and the texture firm, requiring 
picking not more than twice a week. A deliciously mild 
and sweet berry. In season it is classed as an extra early, 
but it will bear on through with the late varieties. Prices: 
50 plants, 75c; 100 plants, $1.25; 200 plants, $2.00; 500 
plants, $4.00, postpaid. 1,000 by express, $6.50. 
EVERBEARING STRAWBERRIES 
GEM. Without exception the best everbearing straw- 
berry. We have tried all the outstanding new varieties 
and consider this the best. The berries are large, uniform 
in size and shape and real beauties. Deep glossy red clear 
through. Never green tipped or white-fleshed which is 
common among everbearing varieties. The berries ripen 
red from top to bottom, inside and out. The flavor and 
quality are wonderful. Berries sweet and delicious and 
so firm they will keep for days after picking. Plants large 
and robust. Set a new strawberry bed now using Gem 
plants. You can’t go wrong. Prices: 50 plants, $1.00; 100 
plants, $1.75; 500 plants, $6.75, postpaid. By express, 
1,000 for $12.00. 
PROGRESSIVE. ‘The first successful Everbearer. An 
old favorite, a tried and proven variety. Does well on all 
soils and in all climates. The dark glossy red berries are 
medium to large in size. A very heavy bearer especially 
through the summer and fall months. Plants set now will 
give a large crop next summer and fall, another the fol- 
lowing summer and still another in the fall. We highly 
recommend this variety for home or near-by market. Prices: 
50 for 80c; 100 for $1.35; 500 for $6.00, postpaid. By 
express, 1,000 for $8.00. ; 
MASTODON. The largest Everbearing Strawberry. Nine 
selected berries have filled a quart box. The berries are 
firm and solid and of a rich, glossy red, delicious in flavor 
considering their size. Not a shipper. It is one of the 
largest, heaviest producing strawberries yet introduced. 
Will not do well on all soils. Prices: 50 plants for $1.00; 
100 plants for $1.75; 500 plants for $6.75, postpaid. By 
express, 1,000 for $12.00.
