Berries and Grapes You Should Grow 
BLACKBERRIES 
BLOWERS. Claimed to be the hardiest and 
most productive, and to bring on the 
market the highest price of all black- 
berries. Fruit large size, jet black, of best 
quality; good shipper; enormous bearer. 
EARLY HARVEST. Its earliness, combined 
with good shipping qualities, makes it a 
very profitable variety. The fruit is of 
medium size, firm and attractive in ap- 
pearance. Dwarf and compact grower. 
ELDORADO. Of late introduction, being 
vigorous and hardy in most localities. 
The berries are large, coal black, flavor 
sweet and melting and have no hard 
core. Very firm and therefore an excel- 
lent market variety. 
SNYDER. Berries of medium size, sweet, 
melting. Very hardy and wonderfully 
productive. Valuable for cold climates 
as it leads where hardiness is a consid- 
eration. Early.

STRAWBERRIES 
Culture: A good many people overlook the 
Strawberry, thinking the plants demand too 
much care, but this is not true. Strawberries 
will succeed in any soil that is adapted to 
ordinary farm or garden crops. For field cul- 
ture set in rows three feet apart, 18 inches in 
rows; for garden, 15 inches each way, leaving 
pathway every third row. The ground should 
always be kept clean and well cultivated. In 
winter, a covering of leaves, straw or some 
kind of litter will protect the plants. Do not 
cover them until the ground is frozen, or so 
deep as to smother plants, and remove cover- 
ing before growth starts in the spring. 
STANDARD VARIETIES 
AROMA. A large, bright scarlet berry of a 
roundish conical shape. Not quite as 
large as the Fremont Williams. It is very 
productive, a fine canning and shipping 
variety. 
CATSKILL. A new variety that has been 
tried in the Denver territory and found 
to be very good. A prolific bearer of 
large firm berries, rich red color and fine 
flavor. 
FREMONT WILLIAMS. The berries are very 
large, blunt-shaped, glossy and unsur- 
passed in beauty. As a shipper, it is 
hard to beat on account of its firmness. 
The plants make a large bush and winter 
better than any standard variety known. 
IMPROVED HOOD RIVER. Developed by 
one of the best growers in Colorado, is 
an improvement on the Regular Hood 
River. Is a better yielder of larger and 
more uniform berries. 
EVERBEARING STRAWBERRIES 
This wonderful Strawberry was obtained 
in cross-pollinating the wild everbearing 
Alpine sorts with the standard varieties, 
and yields continuously from the latter part 
of May until long after frost. The plants 
bear the same year they are started, but 
if a large amount of late berries is de- 
sired, it is better to pinch the blossoms 
during May and June, which causes the 
heaviest crop to come on during September 
and October. 
GEM. This everbearing berry is used quite 
extensively in the vicinity of Denver. It 
has a very good flavor, dark red and 
without the hard white center core found 
in some of the other types of everbearing 
strawberries. Fruits are large, tender 
and juicy. Very prolific in the produc- 
tion of plants, which have dark green 
foliage. Hardy and a good commercial 
as well as home garden berry. 
MASTODON. This variety is a great im- 
provement in the everbearing strawher- 
ries. It is really a wonderful berry. It 
is the most prolific, bearing an abund- 
dance of largest fruit from early summer 
to late fall. Regardless of your past 
experience with Everbearing Strawber- 
ties, we recommend you plant Mastodon, 
which is different and satisfactory. Last 
fall we had an opportunity to see Masto- 
don grown alongside of almost every 
variety of Everbearing Strawberries. 
There simply was no comparison as to 
yield, size, flavor, and firmness of fruit. 
Since seeing this comparison, we have 
practically discontinued offering all other 
varieties.
