Took Years 
After years of careful selection from 
among the wild blueberry (often called 
huckleberries) government plant breeders 
have developed this giant cultivated blue- 
berry. 
Larger Than Wild Kinds 
It’s somewhat like its wild relatives but 
much larger (5 times), sweeter, better fla- 
vored, much more attractive and productive. 
Easy to Grow 
We used to think blueberries would grow 
only in marshy locations. Now they can be 
grown with very little soil preparation, right 
in your garden, back yard, as easily as roses 
or shrubs. 
<—«< RUBEL 
An early to late-season variety, has a 
very long fruiting season, beginning the 
forepart of July and lasting for 6 weeks. 
Bushes are hardy and healthy, and will bear 
more quarts of berries per bush than other 
varieties year in and year out. Upright in 
growth (5 to 6 ft.) and open growth. Fruits 
every year. Berries uniform in size, holding 
their large size until the end of the season 
better than most blueberries. They are 
sweet with a very rich flavor. One of the 
best for pies or canning, and you can always 
depend on Rubel for bearing a lot of dandy 

berries.

Keith’s 5-Year 
Ready-to-Bear Blueberry 
Bushes 
Why wait 2 or 3 years for your blueber- 
ries when you can set Keith’s 5-year ready- 
to-bear bushes and have berries this July 
and August? These bushes have been grown 
and transplanted in our nursery rows for 5 
years and are ready to fruit for you this 
summer. They will eliminate all that time 
and uncertainty when younger bushes are 
set. They will save you at least 2 years. 
This summer they will fruit their third crop 
of berries under favorable conditions. They 
come bundled in burlap with Kelth’s acid 
peat humus packed around their roots, 
which should be used in planting. Sent by 
Express.

PIONEER 
One of the best 
varieties for home 
use. 
JERSEY 
(Late) 
Largest berries grown. Jersey pro- 
duces some of the largest berries 
grown. (See picture on front page of 
this folder.) Ripens later than Rubel, 
thus extending the blueberry fruiting 
season. Bushes fast growers, heavy 
yielders. Berries excellent for home 
uses or market. Hang on bushes for 
a long time after ripening. With our 
5-year, ready-to-bear bushes you will 
have that surprise in big iuscious ber- 
ries in 90 days after planting. (See 
prices below.) 
PIONEER 
(Large, Early) 
An early variety, ripening its first 
berries a week ahead of Rubel or 
Adams. The berries are very large, 
many of them measuring over 2 inches 
around. They are larger than the 
Rubel or Adams and covered with a 
blue bloom, making them one of the 
most beautiful blueberries. The flavor 
is mild but sweet. One of the best 
for desserts. The bushes are low (4 
ft.), globelike in form. An ideal va- 
riety for gardens. (Prices given be- 
low. ) 

These blueberry bushes have been planted 8 years. Note their size. Many of the bushes yielded 
this summer 7 quarts per bush. At this rate your yield per acre would be 7,000 quarts. It takes at 
least 1000 plants to set an acre. More profitable than apples, peaches or other tree fruits. At 60c 
per qt. the yield would bring over $4000 per acre. 

Cultivated Blueberries 
Can NOW Be Grown in 
Your Garden or Field 
Now you can grow all the blueberries (often miscalled huckle- 
berries) you need right in your garden, along walks, next to 
the garage, any place you would grow shrubs or roses. All you 
have to have is (1) an acid soil, (2) moist soil, and (3) liberal 
amount of humus in the soil. The kind of soil does not make 
so much difference as long as the above conditions are present. 
if your soil is not sufficiently acid (should be between 4.0 to 
5.1 pH) it can be made so by adding Keith’s acid peat humus. 
It will also correct the humus deficiencies. 
Lasts for Years 
Set Keith’s cultivated blueberry bushes and you are through 
planting for years. Bushes grow and produce almost a lifetime. 
Need very little care, just an occasional thinning out and cut- 
ting back of the old canes and branches. 
Berries for Five Weeks 
You'll begin to pick your first blueberries in early July and 
the bushes will keep fruiting until late August. They fruit longer 
than any other bush fruit. 
Garden Culture 
Set the bushes 4 ft. apart (5 ft. better) in the 
row, spacing rows 5 ft. apart. Better set at one 
end of garden or along walk or drive, or next to 
some building where they won‘t have to be dis- 
turbed for years. Dig the hole 24 inches across, 
12 to 16 inches deep and fill bottom half with 
a mixture of 1 part top soil and 2 parts Keith's 
acid peat humus. Leaf-mold, soil from huckle- 
berry marsh may be used if it is acid enough, but 
we suggest our special acid peat humus. Pack 
bottom mixture solid and set plant in middle of 
hole, fill in around roots, pack firm until hole is 
filled. Better leave a little depression on top to 
hold water during watering. Soak the soil and the 
job is done. Water thereafter to keep the soil 
moist. Rainwater is best. To retain moisture bank 
up around plant with lawn clippings, leaves, etc., 
after watering. 
FIELD CULTURE 
Remember, the blueberry must 
have an acid soil (pH 4.0 to 
5.1) and plenty of water. Keep 
this in mind in selecting your 
soil for commercial plantings. 
A drained blueberry (huckle- 
berry) marsh would be_ ideal. 
Growths of white cedar, leather- 
leaf, red maple, etc., are indica- 
tions of a suitable soil. But to 
make sure always have the soil 
tested for acidity by your county 
agricultural agent. Some soils 
are found to be too acid and 
this can be corrected by the 
addition of lime. See your coun- 
ty agricultural agent. Low mea- 
dow lands are sometimes suit- 
able. Set the plants .5 ft. in 
row, spacing rows 8 ft. apart. 
Water table should be 30 to 48 
inches below surface. 
PARCEL POST or EXPRESS 
Two- and three-year plants 
may be sent by Parcel Post in 
the 2nd and 3rd zones but be- 
yond it will be more expensive. 
Express is more sure, safer, and 
quicker. The 5-year bushes 
come cheaper by Express. Un- 
less amount is sent to prepay 
transportation, shipment either 
Parcel Post or Express will be 
sent collect. 

ADAMS 
A midseason to late variety, beginning to ripen its ber- 
ries early in July and continues bearing for 5 weeks. The 
bushes are hardy and healthy with an upright growth (5 to 
6 ft.). Berries are a deep blue-black, large (see picture 
above) attractive with a good sweet flavor that everyone 
likes. We recommend Adams either for home or field 
culture. (See prices below to left.)

KEITH’S ACID PEAT HUMUS 
Ideal For Blueberry Growing 
This acid peat humus has the right 
acidity and contains the necessary or- 
ganic matter and humus ideal for the 
successful growing of. the cultivated 
blueberry. In it they will grow and pro- 
duce their big, beautiful berries. We

nary soil. The more acid and the more 
humus in your soil the less Keith’s acid 
peat humus necessary. It is aiso very 
beneficial in building a lawn, enriching 
your garden soil, and the soil around 
shrubs, roses, etc., and the growing of 
strawberries: It’s a soil builder and 
makes plants grow. Price: 114-bu. bag, 
$1.50; 4 or more at $1.35 each. Sent
